There's that, of course. Lots of personal info is available at the old forum (which is, to the best of my knowledge, still accessable). There is already five active games, and albeit we can be flexible, it would have to be something special.

If (and I say this with every possible interpretation of the word) this game comes about, I'd also create restrictions on how many guesses each "player" can have. I'm getting really tired of all this spamming..

Whats with the seek,find post?No one seems to visit it anymore.Shall we close it or is someone going to revive it?

And when will the next flaws appear?

Btw,can Kareeah Indaga give us another clue?Might&Magic Riddles seems to be on hold again.

"Shall we"? :loll:

I suggest renaming the riddle thread in the same format as the other games, i.e. "Game - M&M Riddles".

There was no interest in another round of Seek, Find, Whatever after the other one ended.

The new game has been accepted into the roster. The "Find the Flaws" game is still active, but people are busy playing H5, I guess..

It's sad that Hang Man got locked. I really liked that one :cry:
I hope someone will come up with some new games soon :) I'm too tired to cook up a game :snore:

Thanks for the update TLD. Makes me have to do less work. :D

Yeah, if somebody has an idea, please let us know. And please make it an original one. Until then, let's enjoy H5.. :-D

I suggest a game of caladont.If someone doesnt know what it is,or calls it differently,here are the rules:

Someone says a word,then another person has to say a word that starts with the last two letters of the previous word.Words cannot repeat,and personal names arent allowed.

Though I dont think Kalah will aprove a spamming game,we could add some more rules to make it more interesting,and harder to post without a thought:

Additional rule number 1:Instead of the last two,you need to use last three,or even last four letters of the word.
Additional rule number 2:A whole sentence involving the word must be written.Or maybe the sentence must contain last X words(X higher then 5 would be ridiculous though)

So Im waiting for the nazi to approve the game so I can start it.And remember,your pleads/begging/death threats can change nazis mind,so go ahead,post your oppinions.

OMG, you called Kalah a game nazi! 8| Now we have to sing the I'm-so-sorry- song.

Hey, I never knew the game's English name is "caladont"; in Romania we call it fazan ("pheasant"). I like the game, but I must admit it has a high potential of becoming you-know-what

DL, you forgot to mention how the game ends: when a person doesn't know a word (which is unlikely to happen in an online version of the game) or when a person can't say a word with the respective letters (for example, in Romanian a common method of blocking a player is saying words that end with "nt", because there's no Romanian word that starts with "nt"). Also, in the RO version, one loses when one gets blocked 5 times (because "fazan" has 5 letters), after which the rest of the players continue until only one remains, who is declared the winner.

Well I dont know if its called like that in english,but it is in serbian(because of the NT ending,which cannot be continued),so I just assumed.

Anyhow,we can play with score system as well,until there is no word to be written,which is when a new round should start.

For example:

If you use just the last two letters,you get 2 point,if you use last three letters,you get 3 points,etc.If you use the whole word,you get an extra 2 points.If you end the round(say a word that cannot be continued)you get 5 extra points.

Yeah that blocking thing sounds all right. It would secure a certain limit to be established.

Let's try it out for a bit and we'll see how it goes.
