Играем в колбасу!

[kutsuwamushi.livejournal.com]

One of LiveJournal's Russian members has created a new meme. I can translate it (well, except for a couple of words that aren't in my dictionary) - the point seems to be to see who has the longest sausage-chain of usernames. What I'm curious about is if this sausage game is something that the author made up or if it's a twist on an old game. If it's an old game, how does it work?

Warning for non-Russian speakers: Entering your name into the meme's form and clicking the button might automatically update your journal with the meme. =)

(I won't mention that my first reading of the title gave me dirty thoughts. Wait, I did mention it. *giggle*)
