Hi there!

I have updated the rules as follows, allowing for more flexibility

A) The idea is to start off with a four-letter word and players add a new word either by

1) Changing one letter and retaining the order of the other letters
2) Changing one letter and rearranging the order of the other letters
3) Dropping a letter
4) Adding a letter

but CAN ONLY USE ONE of these options in doing so

For example:

Start word = BOOT
Next word = LOOT (option A1), TOOL (option A2), BOO (option A3), BOOTY (option A4)

B) ALL WORDS MUST BE OF THREE LETTERS, FOUR LETTERS, OR FIVE LETTERS

C) A player CANNOT play off of his/her own word

All other rules remain the same

Let's restart from the last word posted:

Shell. as Posted: 7th Jun 2008 18:25 by LT Tatters ...... You changed two letters

This makes the the next two entries invalid ...... Sorry!

Let's start again with the previous valid entry:
