About Comment Dominoes
In the tradition of Photo Dominoes, Comment Dominoes is a flickr game where players juxtapose photos with similar elements or themes to create a chain of images. But unlike its predecessor, Comment Dominoes allows players to use any photo publicly posted on flickr and gameplay takes place in photostreams (as opposed to within this group). Happily, this drives the original photo's view count through the roof.
Rules
Once an administrator has begun a Comment Domino, any player may jump in with a comment. The tricky part of the competition is to see who is quickest to respond in making the next move. Remember, you may never make two moves in a row.
Typically, an administrator will begin a new domino, but this is not always the case. Guidelines for selecting an initial image for a comment domino include: 1) the image should not already have any comments.
Each Comment Domino should end on the 40th move. That means the 39th move should respond to move #38 and also to the inspiration photo, which is always as move #40.
Example
Three panels from the original comment domino:
From Star Jones in a swimsuit, to a bathing elephant, to a Klingon battle spear and beyond.
