Game: Caladont

Unread postby DaemianLucifer » 24 Jul 2006, 15:53

Ok,the game is very simple,but I decided to spice it up a bit.Here are the rules:

1)You need to create a word that starts with at least two last letters of the previous word(example hat -> attractive).

2)The order of the letters should not be changed(morning -> ingenious is ok,but ignite isnt.

3)You must add at least one letter(so hat -> at is a nono)

4)You can use more than just two last letters,and it gives you additional points(example:cape -> apes gives you 3 points,while pea gives you just 2).

5)Proper nouns(nouns that label a specific thing,like Earth,Microsoft,Belgium,etc),and non-english words are not allowed(sorry,but me saying tikvan would be unfair),and so are abbreviations

6)A single word cannot be repeated twice in the same round(a word is considered repeated even if you post a plural of it,but singular was posted earlier)

7)A word cannot be strongly tied with the previous word(menaing its meaning has to completely differ from all of the previous words menings)if its used whole(so adding a suffix ly,ing,ed,or anyone like thats isnt allowed,turning a verb into a noun,or similar is also not allowed).

8)For each letter of the previous word you use,you get one point.If you use the whole previous word in the new word,you get five extra points(example:mist -> mistaken gives you 9 points,not 4).

9)The round ends when there are no words that can be posted.The one that ends the round gets -5 points(so that users are encouraged to prolong the game)

10)The one with the most points at the end of the round starts the new round.In the case of a tie,the one with the lowest number of words wins.

11)You cannot post two words without at least 5 posts between them.

12)If you misspell the word,you are awarded -1 points.

13)If someone breaks a rule,he is penalized with one point.When five penalties are issued,the round ends.

If these rules seem to complicated,or to simple,they will be changed in the second round.

NOTE:As I created the game,Ill track your score,but you would be appreciated if you posted how many letters from the previous word you used,although you are not obligated to do this.

So,lest BEGIN

NOTE:Seeing how usual suspects swarmed in imidiately,starting from the next round(which looks like it is soon)there will be an additional rule preventing you from posting unless at least 5 people posted after you.

I must warn you, in Romanian I'm a master of this game :devious:
But then again, English isn't Romanian :D

@DL: Does the word "caladont" actually mean something? Or is it just the name of the game?
