If you have paid a little bit of attention to the ADD thread you will have noticed that I mentioned starting a Name That Tune thread here. There seemed to be a little interest in this so to gauge just how much there is, here is a poll to tell me what you think.
General rules would be along the lines of I post a portion of a song that I recorded and players would have a week to try to determine what song it is. Some of the songs will be incredibly obscure and the part I play may not be on the standard instrument(for instance: guitar part played on a cello).
Let me know what you think.

Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Re: Community Name That Tune Interest
Uh, I have a confession to make--I don't read the ADD thread. When I started coming on here, it was so long, and I had a slow connection, so it would've taken me forever to catch up. Now it's in the tens of thousands in postings, and I have a faster connection, but I still would never be able to catch up. 
Sorry about that.
Sorry about that.

Alright, I think I have enough feed back on interest in this. I will be starting this, look for a new thread with the full rules and first song sometime in the next week, most likely the 11th.
There's no place like 127.0.0.1
