Ok I think the one word has gone pretty far and is getting a little out there but I thought of something to add to the fun.

The following word has to start with the 2nd letter of the previous word, the sentences need to be gramatically correct. So perhaps this might add a little challenge to it. lets see if we can keep the story flowing and try to challenge the person after you with a hard letter to follow gramaticaly and still make the story make sense.

Also if you have only a single letter, such as "I" or "a" then you need to write another word and the first letter of the fword following the a or I is the letter chosen for the next poster's word

I think it will be fun so here goes.

Vying, never even thought of that.
Yea, the normal ones get boring, I only ever post in them a few times.

And yes I do have a general way to get that to make sense since you really do need to have aclue before posting. Dang X was hard to follow :p

OK I know that this is a little unorthodox to add rules in the middle of a game, and if you guys don't like the new twists then we can nix them, but I think it would be some added fun if we add a couple more twists to this game.


I am only accepting the opinions of those who have played so far as being able to vote on whether the new twists should apply or not. That would be The White, and KagomeShuko

#1 let's make a point system, for every successful word that is added you get a point.

#2 For every succesful sentence completed anyone who has posted in that sentence gets 2 points

Now I want the sentences to be gramatically correct, or close enough to semblance a gramatically correct sentence, to make sense, and create an actual story,

So I propose a challenge system, if a poster is challenged, and is unable to meet the challenge the poster deducts 5 points from their score and has to erase the word that was presented as a possible inclusion to the story.

If the poster meets the challenge the challenger must forfeit 10 points to the person being challenged.

If there is a controversy over whether the challenge is met or not everyone playing will take a vote in the event of a tie vote the challenged post is awarded the word and the points for posting but not any additional points from the challenger.

Everyone must keep track of their points and post a running tab at the end of each post.

If you like these rules. let me know. I am for them so if one more is for them then we will go by a majority vote. If both of you don't like them then forget I brought them up.


I will start off everyone from scratch with 10 points.

The reason I bring this up is I have a problem with iguanas being presented. I am not challenging you on this for any points because I can add a word that would make sense but would start to lead the story away from being sensical.

And before that gets out of hand I thought this might be a cool additional twist to keep it fun and make people have to think.

In a challenge you may be asked how it makes sense to the story or how it is gramatically correct, or both.
I think I covered everything to keep this interesting and fun if you have any other ideas let me know.
