New Game - One Letter

shopharim · 10:52 AM

Not sure if this will be of as much interest as it seems in my head, but here goes...

The rules are simple.
1. Each post can consist of one word (of course comments ad nauseum following the one word reply are expected)

2. The reply can only be different from the previous word by one letter (Add 1 letter, remove 1 letter, or change 1 letter)

Examples:
"Add" his --> this
"Remove" draft --> daft
"Replace" election --> electron

3. Reply can not be the same word as was the basis for the previous post (i.e. totem --> tote --> rote

totem --> tote --> totem

)

------------------------------------------------------
New rules added for September (especially since the practice is already well underway)

4. Add and rearrange if you must

5. just rearrange if you're stuck
