rectangle-radical-street-law

after reading the first hint, I'll say

rectangle-radical-street-law-U2
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

square - dealing
free - wild
crossed - hands
Hence:

I thought Mtversuvius was going to win the creativity award, but right now Gwnn looks like the frontrunner here, although square's facile reasoning ability is to be congratulated.
Remember - wild hints may or may not be accurate. <shocked face>

Wild hint:

Keep guessing! Even if it doesn't come to you, it may still go.

General comment:

The new game's name cannot be "Bridge". "Robot Rebate 55 Tournament", "Robot Reward Tournament", etc. You can't just call a game "Bridge" in a Bridge site, can you? That'll be like calling Dell's new line of computers, "Computer". Heh.

I can be square,
I can be free,
I can be crossed,
And contracts are key.


Can you guess BBO's new game's name? That's a real mouthful, but the name is not. Guess the exact name, and win BB$20. Post your answers in the forum thread here, first to guess wins!
