So if you wanna be picky everything since last night at 10:40:21 is DQ. *grin*

Current Rules:
#1 You cannot add letters.
#2 You cannot use foreign languages.

but the one that you broke.

#3 You can only change one letter. within the word. That's what makes his word so tricky.

Yes, that is the current rules but....

#1 The word wasn't actually part of the game.

#2 He didn't specify that the current rules were applicable in this case.

Ergo.....since he was being a devilish git.....I thought I'd slide that in before he qualified it.

Nyuk! Nyuk! Nyuk!

No, what you are doing is changing the order of more than one letter in the word.

I.E. = You (at least according to the OP's rules) can't take the word "STOP" and make the word "POST". What you can do, by using the same word "STOP", is make the word "STEP". Only change ONE letter at a time.

I'm fine with doing it the way that you are as you have a little bit more freedom to enter a new word. All I'm doing is explaining why it seems I jumped all over NikonJeb, which by the way, I didn't mean to cause any offense there. -BB

PS. Before anybody assumes that I don't like change please read the sentence in bold.

PSS. If nobody minds we can continue on with the last word posted.

tnun posted "SURGEON" so let's start from there.

Yes, but I was messing with Robert on the side antics of his SYNERGY....which wasn't following along, and now you want to go off on a tangent from balot to another derivative of a sideplay word and change the whole flow of the thread!

I say BLASPHEMY!!!!

Bwa-Ha-Ha-Ha-Ha!!!!!

Lessee some'un change one letter in blasphemy and make a word!

Bwa-Ha-Ha-Ha-Ha!!!!!

I'm having entirely too much fun messing with this.....I should probably behave.

Succotash, blasphemy... Big words. What about not only changing one letter but also one of the rules each time? (Oops, guess I did that).
