Alphabet Container Game

Postby Riptide » 2009-12-18, 6:08

Ok, this is a new idea that I came up with like yesterday and was debating whether I should actually make this into a game. Obviously, I am, so let's see if this goes well or not. :)

Basically how you play is the first person says a word in any language that contains the letter "a" in it. This continues all the way until you hit the letter "z". After someone says a word containing the letter "z" in it, the following person has to make a word that contains the letters "a" and "a". The next person then makes a word containing the letters "a" and "b" (doesn't have to be in order, could be a word like bota, the spanish word for boot). If you don't follow how this works, just wait for others to post until you get the idea. :)

I'll of course start (next person has to have a word that contains the letter b...this gets more interesting as the game goes on). Be sure to underline the required letter.

That would be fun to spice it a bit (at least for the beginning) by adding the order of the letters.
Say, the first series will start with a, then, b, c (say, anaconda, bigfoot, cat)... The second one will have one a and then a b within the word (eg. autobus), next one a and somewhere after a c...

That's not a bad idea. When I was thinking of order though, i meant they had to be consecutively one after the other (like for the letters aba, it would have to be something like jugaba), but i like your idea where the letters have to be somewhere placed in a certain position, but not necessarily connected. Let's do that. :D

Um...邪悪歌 already did "h", but ok. It'd be best if you guys just underline the letter.

It just looks ugly with letters that have descenders: j, g.

Ah, I got it. Just change the color of it. Also, Jaakuuta, we're still just on single letters.
