ON!!…NaW-G! W-G!! - Thoughts please!

As we are approaching the 200th edition of:-

Oh No!!...Not another Word-Game! Word-Game!!

Thanks to everyone who has taken part, I know it's not to everyone's taste on FG's but it still seems very well supported by those who do.

The question is:- do we call it a day once the 200th game has been played or do we continue with the game as it is? Play a different game? Suggestions invited.

I'm happy to carry on starting a new game when the old one expires or if someone else would like to take over, that's fine too, although it does require logging in to FG's quite often to check on progress and start a new game fairly frequently!

Anyway, let's have your thoughts, moans and groans and anything else applicable to the game! 😊 - Dev.

I've never participated in a word game on here or anywhere else. But people seem to be enjoying it. Go to 250 and ask your question again.

If you do, someone else will jump on the band wagon and start one.

Certain threads have some kind of replication mechanism that can't be stopped!

Politicians of all persuasions have been playing word games with us since William Pitt the younger was PM.

The reason why _evanian and I no longer speak is I think because I'm a tad sniffy about the word games.

My rivals are no match. Pail imitations.

They originals can be quite fun.

Hey LookingFor, I think there's been a misunderstanding – I don't recall ever having a conversation with you before, so I'm not sure what prompted your comment about not speaking anymore? I certainly don't have any issues whatsoever with your goodself.

Also, sorry for being pedantic and a tad sniffy too, but I noticed you mentioned 'pail imitations' – I think you meant to say 'pale imitations'? 'Pail imitations' are pretend buckets or similar!😁

Either way, no worries, if you're up for some wordplay, feel free to play-on.

Pale vs pail, colour vs bucket, yes of course you're correct and I did actually run both options through my mind.

I've no issues with you either, but I can't message you directly.

Word games are a fun distraction from the politics and the cocks.

Please continue Dev. They're a welcome distraction and never seem to get sabotaged in the way some threads which start off lightheartedly and then take a nasty turn do.

The simple format seems to work best. The themed ones are okay but always seem to revert to the basic word association anyway.

Really appreciate your keeping them going. Thanks x

Thanks LookingFor, I'm so glad we cleared that up. It's always great when we can have a lighthearted exchange about words and meanings, it certainly provides a good diversion from the other forum topics! 😊

Hi Guys👋 Just a little 'bump' to get the topic of the word game back on the radar 😊.

Any thoughts or ideas are welcome! Thanks for playing, everyone! Dev. 👍

Thanks, I appreciate your support. One reason I'm asking is that there's a certain faction on the site who don't like the game and try to spoil it for others. I've also received some unwelcome and abusive private messages regarding the game so am just being a tad cautious.

Please continue your word game Devanian it's your freedom of choice and ours as players to contribute to it. Anyone giving you abuse for it is just jealous I guess of the success. Mx

The only issue I have, is that occasionally you could get a bit picky on the words used...

Other than that, carry on!

You blocked me ages ago...I was never abusive, but as I've already said you were a bit school teacher-like about it sometimes.

Put me in detention and across your knee. Please!

Exactly, so carry on until nobody plays anymore.

It's not like anyone is forced to play.

Recognising how some brains work in the forum, I suddenly felt compelled to mention here that there's no hidden meaning to my first ever post in the word game

Just say the time and I'll be there...slightly late of course so as to increase you ire slightly more.
