Interesting round! Congratulations for Three Blind Squirrels.
But I want to know how we are supposed to find the REM song from the hints (except if we were REM fans and knew the lyrics of the song)?

Googling remember risk life monopoly - thats what worked for me when i did a test run-through for lp, its the 11th result.

Round Explanation:

http://linkinpark333.coffeecup.com/lpinvasion/letsplay/

You are given three board games with the pic name remember.jpg. Risk The Game of Life, and Monopoly. These games are all Hasbro games.
http://linkinpark333.coffeecup.com/l...lay/hasbro.htm (Hidden Bonus)
All three games can be found in the R.E.M. song Man on the Moon (REMember)

http://linkinpark333.coffeecup.com/lpinvasion/letsplay/manonthemoon.htm

Alan Shepard hit two golf balls on the moon.

http://linkinpark333.coffeecup.com/lpinvasion/letsplay/alanshepard.htm

One of Shepard's copilot's, Edgar Mitchell, was a Kappa Sigma fraternity brother.

http://linkinpark333.coffeecup.com/lpinvasion/letsplay/edgarmitchell.htm

Here, you have the Apollo 14 ensignia without Apollo 14 and Stuart Roosa (The other copilot) Underneath it says Sci-Fi TV Franchise. Shepard (with two Ps) and Mitchell are surnames of characters from the Stargate franchise. (John Sheppard from Stargate Atlantis, and Cameron Mitchell from Stargate SG-1)

http://linkinpark333.coffeecup.com/lpinvasion/letsplay/stargate.htm

The picture is of glyphs that can be found on the Stargate. Sculptor Orion Lynx Leo Andromeda Pisces Origin. Taking the first letter of each makes apollos.

Googling remember risk life monopoly - thats what worked for me when i did a test run-through for lp, its the 11th result.

I guess googling is country sensitive, because I did the same search and there was not even a hint about R.E.M up to at least 15th page.
I am not complaining, just wanted to know how people have got that. It's a really good round.
