Change-1-Letter Game D
By Valdremia on 24/05/2009
Game C was a rather interesting contesting round. The words used are a many, original in terms of players countering in locking/cornering to and fro, discoveries of more understanding between words acceptance or rejections, it saw well thought out explanations, contesting and pointers that are really worth reviewing about, hopefully, the game will/might see itself refined even more with these invaluable inputs - allowing more learning among each other. Very good plays!
Several players were onto the game, Zemus, His Lordship, Gorgemaster, Angus, Evil, Lefty, Indi etc...Lefty bags this game with the winning word "Cheaper" although not without contest. Congratulations Lefty, that was one win that wasn't easy.
ATB all!

Which dictionary is this word from Steve? I couldn't find it from the 4 dictated dictionaries, might I have missed out anything? Would you please show me the link?
Lots of interesting words played thereafter too.
Game needs to be on hold at "Agape" to "Agale" until "Agale" is clarified.
TY!
By George on 26/05/2009
Ok Vald!
Game on hold@, but yah make me a "co-leader" of this game?
By Valdremia on 26/05/2009
Sure thing Gorge, thanks for helping out

the rules are all there, co-chairing still means able to play the game as usual like everyone, just that would need to look after the management of the game as well. And includes updating the words on the front page.
For issues that are grey and disputable, unless a clear cut reasonable solution available, it should be discussed between all parties looking after the game for everyone's play. So feel free to PM one another for issues to address if any.
Alrighty, we'll just have to wait for Steve's advise to his word
By Stokenut on 26/05/2009

That's ROMANIAN....
Not modern-language...
Oh I dunno ... VALDY??
By Valdremia on 27/05/2009

ok, thanks Steve.
Alrighty Gorge, yeah that's Romanian...Well, we can't accept Romanian words and it does not appear in the stipulated English dictionaries for being conformed into English use...sorry, Steve, in this case we'll have to go back to last valid word to play at:

Nice. Well, the precedence to the 48hours timeout is provided no one has a counter word and is meant to provide some form of ample time gauge not to drag a deciding game.
Yes, Keanu, your word stands and the week has not ended although its about not too long after 48hours...so sorry Gorge, the game in this case needs to be re-opened.
Last word standing, Keanu's: GAPE
Next game is on hold till this game concludes. ATB!
