We're going to have to come up with a rule to deal with people posting the same thing rapidly... I'm thinking about it, any suggestions?

No Plurals.

Orgazmo · 08-01-2003, 02:19 AM

I believe it's Mr. Monkees...

About the posting @ the same time, I think the 2nd poster should just edit their's. If the post is for the win, of course the first poster would get the points.

death? is that the approriate punishment for such a thing

tonguegina · 08-01-2003, 02:20 AM

That's a horrible rule. Basketballs is just as much a word as basketball...

I'd say that if you can't make something plural, then you can't make it past tense (by adding 'ed') or present tense (by adding 'ing').

Fuck, man, you could get into a whole list of things...you can't add 'ly' or 'ness' or 'less'.

victim · 08-01-2003, 02:27 AM

Yeah... but by adding "s", you pretty much take the round every time... with "ed", you probably can't finish the word yourself, and with "ing" you have to be on your toes to get it.

tonguegina · 08-01-2003, 02:56 AM

See, I don't think that's true at all. I did everyother letter for this entire word. I could easily do 'ed' or 'ing'.

Someone else does the e and I do the d. Or I do the i someone else does the n and I'm waiting to do the g.

Plus, some plurals are 'es'. Should that not be counted as well? It would definately take more than one person to do it.

I agree with the no plurals rule. It just makes sense. It's shitty for someone to be able to tack on one more letter and take the whole thing for nearly every game. For simplicity sake, I think that all plurals should be excluded...

BrassMonkees · 08-01-2003, 02:14 PM

I agree, all plurals excluded. Everything else seems fine to me.

are we giving the win to me then?
If so...

Orgazmo · 08-01-2003, 04:20 PM

I believe a wordkill has just been committed.

Ugly Bastard · 08-01-2003, 04:30 PM

Sorry, I must have misunderstood the rules. I thought I could say "Zorr" provided "Zorro" was the next thing to say. I didn't realize that every single word along the way had to be a word.
