The Brain Chain-game - BloodWars Edition 1 |
|
Ok, I sent the idea to True_Enigma but she didn't get back to me yet - & I'm an impatient git, so I'm gonna post this new version of her game with my re-vamped rules (ooh, bad pun).
The aim of the game is to get from the designated starting word to the designated finishing word using the end letter of the previous word as the starting letter of the next.
The game must be played in turns; between more than one player, and the player who reaches the designated finishing word first wins.
The Rules:
1) Words must only be from the items in the BloodWars Armoury / Auction / Expo / skills(training) lists.
*This rule is explicit to the words in those areas - not the descriptions. (i.e. you could use White Dragon or Hatchery, but not things like Round, Attack, Beast.
2) Only the final letter of the exact word(s) of the item can be used to start the next in the chain: i.e. Tiger's, Hard Hat, Death Sower (this does NOT include the word 'of'). You can not use the whole item either; so Hat of Durability would NOT be allowed; but Hat, or Durability would.
3) Words can only be used once per round.
4) The designated starting word is always the next suffix in the Armoury's order, as per the Auction list: i.e. first game would start with Addict (1st from the Helmet list), the next game start with Adrenaline (2nd from Helmet list), and so on. (this would skip guns as a starting word, but they can be used during the game itself).
*This rule relates to the CLOSED auction list search boxes - if you've never used them, I suggest you try they are very handy!
5) The round ends when someone posts the finishing word which is always BLACK - disputably the rarest prefix in the game.
6) As with previous (True_Enigma's) version of The Chain Game, if a duplicate is posted in error, the player will only have the the time it takes to edit a word before someone else has played their turn; if the edit is not made in time, the game reverts back to the last correct word (the aim of restricting the allowed words to only the armoury items should mean that there will be less duplicates, harder, but quicker rounds).
7) As with the original Chain-game - if a word ends in x, y, or z, you can use the letter directly before it. i.e. if the word is EASY - and you cannot find something beginning with y, then you can use S.
If anyone can see a better way of playing the game please feel free to post suggestions. Obviously all credit to this new version goes to Enigma, who had the brilliance of mind to bring us such a fun game to play while waiting for our quests & ambushes to finish.
Game 1 begins...
Addict
WINNERS:

Bob - when I said the letter before y, I meant the letter in the WORD, not in the alphabet!
Anyway - just carry on from where we are....... which was GLF's word above.
