Help[Games] KB's Enormous Multi-Generational Congrats Sign Ups!!
So I noticed we don't have enough of these around right now and it seems like everyone wants one.
Instead of creating something new, I dug into the archives and found one that looked cool. All the rounds will be copied from B's Multi-Round Multi-Generational CAF from 2010 (link to the original's last round: http://www.behindthename.com/bb/game/3786217) All credit goes to B for actually writing the darn thing.
This congrats will be KUY (keep up yourself) style, where you copy your family over from the last round each round, because otherwise my posts will get scary long.
Get excited.
Sign up round instructions:
The year is 1960.

DH: Teemu Nikolai Ikävalko (born 21/11/1933, Joensuu, Finland. 26 years old)
Where they live: London, UK
Geneviève is a history professor with a keen interest in ancient Middle Eastern civilisations. Her father is French-Breton, her mother Irish, and she was raised in London. Teemu is Finnish, although his mother came from Russian Karelia and he is named after his Russian grandfather. He's a paleoanthropologist. Gen and Teemu met when he was in London helping with some research, and after a long-distant relationship it became apparent that it was the real deal. When Teemu's job allowed him to move to London, he took the opportunity. They have only been married six months, but are already considering having children.

Hank is in the US navy and currently stationed in Boston. Jenny has been best friends with his sister since the age of five and when he went home on leave and saw Jenny again he knew she was the girl for him. Jenny took a little bit more convincing but his humor and kindheartedness won her over and they were married soon after her 20th birthday. Jenny enjoys being a housewife and she gets involved with lots of volunteer work and church activities, and she writes a bit of fiction in her spare time.

DW: (born 1932, age 28) Zella Mercedes {Faust-Espina) Simon
DH:(born 1921, age 39) Hamilton Israel Simon
Where they live: Boston
Zella met Hamilton when she was at Yale. Or rather, at a protest at Yale. Or rather, he was holding a blackjack while she was burning the flag at a protest at Yale. It quickly became apparent that Hamilton was still stymied by antique notions that one must not beat a lady over the head with a blunt object. He asked her to come quietly. When she refused, he asked her to coffee. She accepted.
Zella explained, at the cafe, that she was just about to graduate with a doctoral degree in child psychology. She had chosen this path because, in spite of what everyone assumed of her, she just really liked kids. Hamilton admitted that he had become an officer of the peace for about the same reason-- growing up in the bad bit of Boston, he had seen a lot of violence. He wanted to protect future generations of little kids from that.
They really, really liked each other. In spite of their ideological differences, they fell deeply in love and married in the winter, because Zella thought spring and summer weddings were cliche...
