  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I am thinking of a game where there is a letter missing at the beginning of a word. For example in the word,

_ORU.MS, the letter "F" is missing. The next poster would then have to post a word that has a second letter of "F", like _FTEN. This time, the missing letter is "O", and the following poster would post a word that has a second letter of "O", such as _OCCER. Basically, each poster figures out the missing first letter in the previous word and uses that missing letter as the second letter in their own word that is missing its first letter.

[In cases where more than one letter may fit in the "missing" spot, the next poster has the freedom to choose whichever letter he/she wants, and in the unlikely event that no word exists with a second letter of _, this poster may choose any word he/she would like.]

Does that make sense? (See, this is the type of game I devise to delay reading 70 or so pages of a book I'm supposed to have read by tomorrow. ;))

would I then post a word with S for a 2nd letter too?

Isis

Actually, the poster before you should have posted a new word that has a second letter of the one she filled in, which was "E." I'll do a few so you can see how the game is played, starting with your word...

_SIS=Isis, so I now post a word with a second letter that's "i"...
