In other languages?

edit

What is the point of having a section for the name of this game in other languages? Isn't that what interwiki links are for, for those who are interested? It is not a WP norm to include "in other languages" in articles, unless there is a good reason to do so. I propose removing that section, and adding the missing interwiki links. --Farzaneh (talk) 23:30, 7 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

Musical Statues?

edit

Where? It seems rather deceptive to redirect and give nothing.

I second that one. Musical statues is a different game to musical chairs, and should either have a seperate page or at least be included as a distinct paragraph.

Musical statues is esentially the same as musical chairs. The difference is for the convenience of the game master, allowing the game to be played without the need to acquire a chair for almost each player to begin the game. Indeed, there may be disputes in relation to which player moved first which clearly wouldn't happen if chairs were being used... oh no, hang on, yes i suppose two players could sit on a chair the same time.... err, i think i'll leave these games (which i believe are one and the same) to the professionals. I love you musical chairs!!!! :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.108.143.71 (talk) 19:32, 2 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Chris Jericho

edit

I'm pretty sure Chris Jericho didn't invent musical chairs. Probably should revert that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.128.119.20 (talk) 04:13, 31 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

Concept of the game questionable

edit

It happens at every stage of the game, but it can be seen clearly at the end when there is only one chair. One of the two players has the advantage facing the chair. That person often stays longer in front of the chair, pretending to walk. --2.245.113.59 (talk) 23:35, 30 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

Amadeus Mozart

edit

Is it really necessary to include the information from the film Mozart regarding him playing a forfeit and upsetting a composer? I don't understand what that adds to this article? I propose it be removed with just a nod to the fact it's played in the film using forfeited but not going into detail, anyone agree? Disagree? Amanda138a (talk) 02:21, 1 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Two paragraphs are hard to understand

edit

The description of the version played in Wales (second paragraph of article) and of the TV programme plot (very last paragraph of article) are not very clear. Maybe people who know them could do a little rewriting? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:3032:8:C8C7:1:1:C9B5:3287 (talk) 07:57, 28 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
