Not for the intellectually stunted or timid. Can often lead to deadends/game failure.
Take the word above you and use the
last letter to start another word which is similar in meaning/and or function. Next word must be
one letter longer or shorter than the preceding word. For example bollocks - scrotum. Crass example I know. But scrotum is 1 letter shorter and starts with the last letter of bollocks.
Last game only got to 3words before oVo stuffed it up(shocked and stunned mate
lol)
Game before that reached 6 words before young martin ronne put his foot in it.
I'll start the game with
poise

You are a tough task master BoganGod. Maybe you should figure out a scoring system for this game with each letter being worth a point or something. First to 100 and much like the best of intentions in freestyle games... no double turns.
Or.. +1 for each addition letter in a word and -1 for one less letter in a word.

Tough but fair I like to think, on the scoring thing, maybe minus 2 points for using a word again in the same game. Plus 10points for been the first to use a word of 7letters or more etc. Good suggestion mate

No rush on this idea... juggle the concept around a bit.

We'll restart this from "juggle" in the previous post.

It appears that Duk added an extra rule whereby the follow word begins one letter after the previous word's ending letter, in alphabetic order.
Continuing with that, I will play...
