You should probably have checked what "destalinize" means before you posted that word :devious:

What's your point?! It has the exact opposite meaning.

Hmmm...Considering that opposite is gotten by removing the prefix and not adding a suffix,and that the meanings are completelly opposite I should accept it.But on the other hand,it is TT,so maybe I shouldnt accept it :devious: Ah,what the hell!I want to play more :D

On the other hand, "destalinize" has no meaning if there wasn't for "stalinize". Since they are opposites, the meaning is clearly connected. Also, the rules doesn't mention anything about suffixes:
A word cannot be strongly tied with the previous word(menaing its meaning has to completely differ from all of the previous words menings)if its used whole
(They are used as examples though).

Does that mean that I can use "destalinized"? if there's another word that it could continue?

Well I did say that singulars and plurals exclude each other in the same round,so I could use the same for verbe tenses.Although go and gone can be used in the same roung because of the different meanings(however not immeadiatly following each other).And yes,I know go can never be used,but thats the first one that came to my mind.
