| Word Game - Ok. I thought i would try to play this game with you. It's very funny. It does require though that you can be honest :) The game starts with me thinking about a certain word. I then list to you the first letter in that word. For exampel. I might be thinking about Banan (Banana). I then say B. Now the next person in line will think of a word beginning with B and then list the second letter in that word. For instance the next person might think of Balans (balance) and then lists the letter A. After this the next person must think of a word starting with Ba and then list a 3rd letter and so on. Now here's the thing. If you accidently form a correct word while giving the next letter you're out :). Also if the next person guesses what word you we're thinking about. For example. If the next person thinks of the word Bara (just/only) and then lists the word R he/she will lose the game since Bar is a word (Bar). Only of course if the next persons realizes that the previous person actually did form a real word. When somebody fails we start on a new word so nobody has to be left outside :) | |
| Rikard | Monday 15th of August 2005 04:46:29 AM |
| - I've come up with a word and challnges you. The first letter is: T Now the next person either list a second letter from a word he or she's thinking about or try to guess the word i was thinking about (which isn't that easy this early) | |
| Mathieu | Monday 15th of August 2005 06:05:58 PM |
| - That's interesting :) TO Do all declensions of verbs etc count as words? | |
| mrbicrevise | Tuesday 16th of August 2005 01:01:06 AM |
| - TOL (not a word that I'm aware of, well, hope so anyway) | |
| Rikard | Tuesday 16th of August 2005 01:17:18 AM |
| - Yes all conjugatios counts as legal words but not names. TOLE | |
| Rikard | Tuesday 16th of August 2005 03:01:53 AM |
| - Oh and Btw. If you make a guess at the previous persons word and are wrong you will lose. So only guess if you're sure or you can't avoid forming a word :) | |
| Mathieu | Tuesday 16th of August 2005 06:08:05 AM |
| - [quote][i]Originally posted by Rikard[/i] Oh and Btw. If you make a guess at the previous persons word and are wrong you will lose. So only guess if you're sure or you can't avoid forming a word :)[/quote] Or if you can't avoid being guessed yourself after adding a letter ;) So I guess, TOLERANT :) | |
| Rikard | Tuesday 16th of August 2005 11:41:18 AM |
| - Wrong hehe :) I was thinking of TOLERABEL. Almost the same thinh i know hehe. I don't wan't to exlude any letters so i will allow persons to form words that start with Å and Ö even though they are word of their own. So Teup. Would you have the honour of starting the next session? | |
| Mathieu | Tuesday 16th of August 2005 05:01:55 PM |
| - Blast :p I knew I'd be better off not posting at all but as always I can't keep my trap shut.. I assume that rule it goes for the 'I' as well :) Well, lets find out ;) I | |
| mrbicrevise | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 01:51:14 AM |
| - Vi behöver få mer folk spelar, på riktigt. Det är ingen fara, i alla fall. Hmm, nästa bokstav: G | |
| Mathieu | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 01:52:53 AM |
| - IGN | |
| mrbicrevise | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 01:54:07 AM |
| - INGA | |
| Mathieu | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 01:55:39 AM |
| - [quote][i]Originally posted by mrbicrevise[/i] INGA[/quote] Word! But it was IGN, not ING, so we won't count it this time hehe | |
| mrbicrevise | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 01:56:34 AM |
| - Whoops... :D edit: IGNA | |
| Mathieu | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 02:17:21 AM |
| - Mja :D I så fall har jag ingen aning faktiskt, alltså vi bör vänta på någon som har det :) | |
| mrbicrevise | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 02:23:06 AM |
| - Rimlig nog. (Meant to be 'fair enough' -- hopefully it comes out at least roughly like that) | |
| Rikard | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 02:36:35 AM |
| - Sorry but i'mr pretty sure there is no swedish word like that. I checked my "Svenska akademiens ordlista över svenska språket" and found none. Perhaps you meant IGNO? | |
| mrbicrevise | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 03:01:58 AM |
| - [quote][i]Originally posted by Rikard[/i] Sorry but i'mr pretty sure there is no swedish word like that. I checked my "Svenska akademiens ordlista över svenska språket" and found none. Perhaps you meant IGNO?[/quote] Alack, no; I'm afraid I just got totally confused. I was going for ingav (inspire, I think?), forgetting that in order to get there I'd need to make INGA. Oh, and also overlooking the blindingly obvious fact that no one had even typed ING in the first place. Whoops again... | |
| Rikard | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 03:04:12 AM |
| - Ok so perhaps youshould replace your A with something else. So far we have: IGN | |
| petr | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 03:35:49 AM |
| - IGNO | |
| Mathieu | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 03:40:28 AM |
| - Hehe, i asked zappie, he told me it actually was a word, that igna, but it was Skånsk.. oh well, anyways, IGNOR | |
| Stine | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 03:41:53 AM |
| - IGNORE | |
| Rikard | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 03:53:19 AM |
| - Freja. Jag tror du tänker på IGNORERA :) | |
| Stine | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 04:04:26 AM |
| - Ja, det var IGNORERA. Hehe, som sedvanligt förlorade jag :D | |
| Rikard | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 04:09:18 AM |
| - ok. letäs have some fun :) X | |
| Mathieu | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 04:57:22 AM |
| - Freja :(:p Du borde inte svara, eftersom jag tänkte om nåt annars :D Wanted to settle the score with Rikard, but too bad, it seems you're safe - for now ;) Hey, you have that word list of yours, that's no fair :p Hmm I'm here, so I guess I am obliged to pick a letter now as well.. tricky.. XY | |
| Rikard | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 05:02:06 AM |
| - I looked in it beacuse i thought there was no such word, and i was right. Well. While i'm at it i think the word you're thinking on is XYLOFON | |
| Mathieu | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 05:11:15 AM |
| - Not really, it was xylofoner :) There, it worked anyway, sorry, I couldn't suppress it ;) Å | |
| Rikard | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 05:15:34 AM |
| - lol. pluralform? lågt. mycket lågt. ÅB | |
| Mathieu | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 05:20:56 AM |
| - I just had to return the favour.. you could've seen it coming though ;) ÅBE | |
| Rikard | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 05:22:12 AM |
| - ÅBER | |
| Mathieu | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 05:23:48 AM |
| - ÅBEROPA? | |
| Rikard | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 05:24:35 AM |
| - ÅBEROPBAR hihi. V | |
| Mathieu | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 05:29:45 AM |
| - Pff how low ;) (hehe I just figured I was screwed anyway, since I'd be the one ending up having to place the A after the P, which would mean loss, or guess anyway.. no, waiting for more participants is an even lower option :p) VA Anyways, I'm off now, god natt :) | |
| Rikard | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 05:32:39 AM |
| - VAP | |
| Stine | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 12:30:51 PM |
| - [quote][i]Originally posted by Teup[/i] Freja :(:p Du borde inte svara, eftersom jag tänkte om nåt annars :D Wanted to settle the score with Rikard, but too bad, it seems you're safe - for now ;) [/quote] Hehe. Jag vet det, men jag svarade ju med ett stort leende ;):p | |
| Stine | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 12:32:18 PM |
| - Nå ja.. VAPE | |
| Rikard | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 01:58:00 PM |
| - Du tänker på VAPEN kanske? | |
| Jadokesa | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 06:55:57 PM |
| - [quote][i]Originally posted by Rikard[/i] lol. pluralform? lågt. mycket lågt. [/quote] Inte lika lågt som det här, från Glocalnet. ;) | |
| Stine | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 09:36:09 PM |
| - [quote][i]Originally posted by Rikard[/i] Du tänker på VAPEN kanske?[/quote] Nej, inte helt. Det var vapensköld, hehe. D | |
| Rikard | Wednesday 17th of August 2005 11:07:24 PM |
| - Ok this is going out of hand so I'm giving some new Guidelines. Don't conjugate verbs and adjectives unless you have too. Don't put words in plural unless you have too Don't combine words (sammansatta ord) unless you have too Don't make any word into another form than the root unless you have too. En essence, try to think of an as simple form of the word you can. | |
| Mathieu | Thursday 18th of August 2005 02:45:33 AM |
| - Sounds good.. how about adding the rule that you may place as many letters as you want? Because then there's place for verbs like 'förstå' etc, which wouldn't come beyond the 'för' stage otherwise.. well, it's your game ;) I studied game design for a year though :D | |
| Rikard | Thursday 18th of August 2005 02:47:55 AM |
| - Förstå is ok anyway. The "för"-part in förstå hasn't really that much to do with the preposition "för". It's only if they have similar meaning you should avoid it. | |
| Mathieu | Thursday 18th of August 2005 02:50:14 AM |
| - But it's impossible to place the 'r', because then it would be a word.. instead you could choose to place 'rs' in a single turn, which results in 'förs', that might not be a word.. maybe it is, well, you get the idea ;) DA, by the way :p | |
| Rikard | Thursday 18th of August 2005 05:11:30 AM |
| - No because the whole point is that you can corner persons inte being forced to form a word or make a wild guess. So only one letter at a time. DAT | |
| Mathieu | Thursday 18th of August 2005 05:18:40 AM |
| - If one is in a situation to be forced to form a word, then the alternative of guessing can't be too wild ;) Oh well, interesting game either way; I think it's way more educative than other games I've seen, as it involves multiple (all :p) words at the same time :D Since it is you who posted the T, I'm just gonna guess it's DATOR you were thinking of :) Well, I don't know any long enough words with DAT anyway so I have to :) | |
| Rikard | Thursday 18th of August 2005 01:50:16 PM |
| - Well i try to avoid the obvious ones if i can. I was thinking of DATERA The thing about this game is also that you learn words you didn't know by accidently forming them :) | |
| Mathieu | Thursday 18th of August 2005 09:34:57 PM |
| - Yeah, and I expanded my vocab starting with DAT a bit right now (doh, it figures, 'dateren' in Dutch) :) Ö (that's the letter of the new word, not a smiley ;)) | |
| Stine | Thursday 18th of August 2005 09:53:20 PM |
| - Hehe :p ÖV | |
| Rikard | Friday 19th of August 2005 09:45:26 PM |
| - ÖVN I just realized that fotbidding combined words (sammansatta ord) just limits this game so after this i will allow them. Still you should strive to not decline or conjugate any words. | |
| mrbicrevise | Saturday 20th of August 2005 12:51:10 AM |
| - (crosses fingers) ÖVNA | |
| Rikard | Saturday 20th of August 2005 02:51:19 AM |
| - That's not a legal word, I'm sure :) | |
| mrbicrevise | Saturday 20th of August 2005 03:19:44 AM |
| - [quote][i]Originally posted by Rikard[/i] That's not a legal word, I'm sure :)[/quote] Phew :D | |
| Rikard | Saturday 20th of August 2005 05:15:19 AM |
| - What i meant is that there is no such word that begins with ÖVNA | |
| Mathieu | Saturday 20th of August 2005 05:23:12 AM |
| - Phew :D Then I guess övning (looked it up yesterday, would be unfair to post, but today I remember from the top of my head ;)) | |
| Rikard | Saturday 20th of August 2005 04:31:20 PM |
| - Yup that's the word. | |
| Mathieu | Sunday 21st of August 2005 12:47:05 AM |
| - How do you suppose we can make compounds (sammansatta ord)? Because halfway it'll be a word anyway so it would stop there. Ä | |
| Rikard | Sunday 21st of August 2005 05:17:23 PM |
| - I'm just saying that you can [i]think of[/i] them. It makes it harder for the next person to guess. Actually spelling it is a harder thing though. Maybe your idea with adding multiple letters at a time isn't that bad though. | |
| Mathieu | Sunday 21st of August 2005 07:49:57 PM |
| - But I agree you can corner people.. so with a maximum of 2 then? So that the gap can be bridged. ÄNT :p | |
| Rikard | Sunday 21st of August 2005 08:45:25 PM |
| - OK. Let agree on that. You can add 2 letters, if you feel like it. ÄNTE | |
| rach-elle | Friday 16th of September 2005 11:01:11 AM |
| hmmmm - Are you sure there's such a word as änte______? hmmmm.....very very tough....but unless äntelope ;) exists, dang that's a toughie! | |
| Rikard | Friday 16th of September 2005 12:07:17 PM |
| - Yes i am sure :) Btw. It's not Äntelop, lol | |
| Mathieu | Friday 16th of September 2005 02:48:34 PM |
| - Uppenbarligen har inte jag någon aning heller :p | |
| rach-elle | Saturday 17th of September 2005 12:25:24 PM |
| hmm - Rikard, kanske du kan ger oss en ledtråd? :D | |
| Rikard | Sunday 18th of September 2005 01:19:52 AM |
| - It's a composite word. Beginning with "änter" | |
| Rikard | Monday 17th of October 2005 04:39:21 AM |
| - the word was ÄNTERHAKE (grappling hook, or something similar) Next Word Ö | |
| Zaphod | Monday 17th of October 2005 03:35:41 PM |
| - ÖV | |
| Dyluck | Monday 17th of October 2005 09:08:58 PM |
| - ÖVL | |
| Rikard | Tuesday 18th of October 2005 12:33:08 AM |
| - Is it ÖVLIG? | |
| Mathieu | Tuesday 18th of October 2005 02:03:11 AM |
| - (hehe this game has reached the feeble level of only having players left that are actually natives... :D Hmm I'll throw in my two cents where I can but obviously I can't at this point... ;) ) | |
| Rikard | Tuesday 18th of October 2005 02:04:31 AM |
| - yeah i noticed that as well but hoped that the others would join again. I'm not doing this for my own sake or for those of my swedish counterpats :D | |
| Dyluck | Wednesday 19th of October 2005 05:12:14 AM |
| - Hmm, maybe putting in that _only_ word that starts with övl was a litte childish, but I wanted to see if anybody figured it out :) Säg mig, ärligt, använde du ordlista? :) Well, here I go again: D | |
| Rikard | Wednesday 19th of October 2005 04:15:37 PM |
| - lol. I knew ÖVLIG but i did check to see if there were any other words beginning with those letters. I thought not and was correct :) DO | |
| Mathieu | Thursday 20th of October 2005 12:36:49 AM |
| - DOC | |
| Rikard | Thursday 20th of October 2005 01:16:48 AM |
| - DOCE | |
| Mathieu | Thursday 20th of October 2005 02:51:00 AM |
| - Docent? | |
| Rikard | Thursday 20th of October 2005 02:53:09 AM |
| - Indeed :) | |

| - STUDIEBER | |
| Mathieu | Monday 24th of October 2005 09:41:18 PM |
| - SUDIEBERO (hmm, det är ju grammatiskt korrekt i alla fall.. :p) | |
| Rikard | Monday 24th of October 2005 10:47:54 PM |
| - STUDIEBEROENDE??? | |
| Psyche | Monday 24th of October 2005 10:51:35 PM |
| - Jaaaa :D :D *runs away* (dette var den onde gnomen som noen ganger hjemsøker diverse forum) | |
| Mathieu | Monday 24th of October 2005 11:53:48 PM |
| - Jep :) (Damn, Nat, anders post je een keer op een geschikt moment in plaats van dit soort fratsen.. :p) | |
| Psyche | Tuesday 25th of October 2005 12:00:07 AM |
| - Oh! *utilslørt skadefro* :D (hvorfor er "Nat" oversatt med "liquid"!!! :p) | |
| Rikard | Tuesday 25th of October 2005 12:54:17 AM |
| - Argh. En bläckfisk! En bläckfisk! Run away! Keep running! | |
| Mathieu | Tuesday 25th of October 2005 03:32:29 AM |
| - (hehe, you only notice that now Nat? In fact, it means wet.. :p) B | |
| Psyche | Tuesday 25th of October 2005 03:39:33 AM |
| - (God...what a sad, sad life :p Why couldn`t I be the one thinking of a word for once!!? Unfair! :( <--- sad face) BL | |
| Rikard | Tuesday 25th of October 2005 04:29:40 AM |
| - BLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD (fy natalie. inte tänka på bläckfiskar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) | |
| Mathieu | Wednesday 26th of October 2005 04:30:43 AM |
| - Mja, och nu? Kanske dags för en ny bokstav då? :p | |
| Rikard | Wednesday 26th of October 2005 03:42:35 PM |
| - Varsågod :) | |
| Mathieu | Wednesday 26th of October 2005 03:50:37 PM |
| - Hmm jag ville bara ge någon annars möjligheten en gång, men ja.. G | |
| Rikard | Wednesday 26th of October 2005 03:52:29 PM |
| - GU | |
| Stine | Wednesday 26th of October 2005 04:03:57 PM |
| - GUR | |
| Psyche | Sunday 30th of October 2005 12:03:12 AM |
| - GURI (-malla) :p *the evil imp strikes again!* | |
| Rikard | Tuesday 01st of November 2005 08:29:35 PM |
| - can't think of any word like that ..... hmmm. | |
| Mathieu | Wednesday 02nd of November 2005 04:07:49 AM |
| - That means, since Rikard peeked on his list, there is none :p In that case, J ;) | |
| Rikard | Wednesday 02nd of November 2005 07:56:50 AM |
| - actually, i didn't. but thanx anyway. | |
| Stine | Wednesday 02nd of November 2005 06:33:32 PM |
| - Jamen, så.. j? :p JÄ | |
| Rikard | Wednesday 02nd of November 2005 07:26:00 PM |
| - JÄR | |
| Rikard | Sunday 20th of November 2005 04:38:22 PM |
| - hey people. don't give up yet =) | |
| Megan | Monday 28th of November 2005 06:42:29 AM |
| - JÄRO PS. I like this word (hopefully it doesn't exist). | |
| Rikard | Tuesday 29th of November 2005 12:26:59 AM |
| - hopefully the word you're thinking of do exist though :) | |
| Megan | Tuesday 29th of November 2005 03:09:34 AM |
| - The word JÄRO doesn't exist. (I mixed up the rules.) Let's take this instead: JÄRP | |
| Rikard | Tuesday 29th of November 2005 03:15:09 AM |
| - you must think of a word that does exist and then list the next letter in that word, without in the process spelling another already existing word. | |
| Megan | Tuesday 29th of November 2005 04:09:58 AM |
| - Thanks! Thinking about an existing word my next letter is "P": JÄRP | |
| Rikard | Thursday 01st of December 2005 03:27:44 PM |
| - I'm guessing you're thinking of JÄRPE which is the singular of the more know (plural) word [i]järpar[/i], a type of food. For example [i]oxjärpar[/i] | |
| Megan | Saturday 03rd of December 2005 02:40:55 AM |
| - lol ... the only word I found. I was thinking about JÄRPAR (plural), a chicken named hazel grouse in English (in German it's "Haselhuhn"). | |
| Rikard | Saturday 03rd of December 2005 07:07:30 AM |
| - So start a new word then :) | |
| Megan | Saturday 03rd of December 2005 07:39:23 AM |
| Wordgame - Okay. :) The word I'm thinking of starts with: K | |
| Rikard | Saturday 03rd of December 2005 07:42:16 AM |
| - KV | |
| Megan | Saturday 03rd of December 2005 08:07:18 AM |
| - KVI | |
| Rikard | Saturday 03rd of December 2005 11:52:05 PM |
| - KVID | |
| Megan | Monday 05th of December 2005 06:44:00 AM |
| - lol Gotta buy a huge dictionary tomorrow .. ;) Are you thinking about 'att kvida'? PS. Do you actually say "Kvicka dig!" in every day language? I just heard people say "Skynda dig!". | |
| Rikard | Monday 05th of December 2005 11:32:26 PM |
| - no we don't say "kvicka dig" since "kvick" is an "adjektiv" and not a verb :) Yesi was thinking of KVIDA. New word: P | |
| Megan | Tuesday 06th of December 2005 06:12:44 AM |
| Wordgame - PL | |
| Rikard | Tuesday 06th of December 2005 08:30:18 PM |
| - PLU | |
