Thanks for the participation on the first game which picked up with later contention between Eregion and Samurai-JM, with Samurai-JM bagging the win with the word "TEMPTED". We'll try out another, with Samurai-JM to choose a first 4-letter word to start with. Game starts again once he posts. Cheers smile.gif

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
WINNER OF "Change 1-Letter Game"
Game A - Samurai-JM, with the word Tempted.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please read the RULES OF GAME

Overview of game
The object is to change one letter ONLY, and make a new word. You can drop a letter, add a letter or change a letter, but only change one thing. You have to keep it going until no one can make another word. You CANNOT play off of your own word. NO PROPER NOUNS AND NO ACRONYMS ALLOWED! Each word played must be found in an ENGLISH LANGUAGE dictionary.

When no one can make another word. That's the end of the game. The last successful person is the winner.

Example:
player 1-dark
player 2-dart
player 3-tart

Also, you can't repeat a word that was previously used. Ex: word words word wouldn't work.

Dictionaries
4 Dictionaries STRICTLY to refer to are:
CAMBRIDGE DICTIONARY ONLINE
CONCISED OXFORD
MERRIAM-WEBSTER (assoc. Encyclopædia Britannica)
AMERICAN-HERITAGE



First Word: when Samurai-JM starts.

This should be fun, I didn't participate in the original series of these as much as I should have. I'm taking this round down.

Challenge any creationist to a debate.
They'll run away and aggressively accuse you of "attacking" them and their "beliefs".
I'm sorry, please, keep teaching our kids that they'll burn in hell if they don't believe. Mutilate their genitals against their will while you're at it. Keep influencing politics and holding back vital scientific research.
I'll just keep my mouth shut to "respect" your "beliefs".

Ever get that hitch that simply defies what its suppose to do and does exactly what its not suppose? oO

"Duce", interesting word of play...its Italian but its accepted in both American Heritage and Merriam within its list of words. I'm not sure if its used in common context of written or spoken English sentences. Perhaps such as the French word "rendezvous" would be that got exercised into the English language although its not? Not that I know of, and its there as....

In definition -
duce
One entry found.
Main Entry: du·ce
Pronunciation: ˈdü-(ˌ)chā\
Function: noun
Etymology: Italian (Il) Duce, literally, the leader, title of Benito Mussolini, from Latin duc-, dux
Date: 1923

http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/duce


Off Zemus' word "Plant" > Slant


P.S. If there's any opinion to add to this, definitely would be great to hear it. TY! smile.gif
