[GAME] Change One Letter (Round 8) Rules added for newbies!

[Hoss]

Official Rules:

I'll start off the game by posting one word. The object of the game is to take the word I have posted and change just one letter in the word to create a new word.

Example: dog ----> doe

The next person would have to change one letter in the word "doe" and so on and so forth.

Rules per round:

You may not rearrange the letters.

You can play as often as you like, but at least one new person must post before you can post again.

You may NOT repeat a word that has been already used!

Proper names/places are NOT permitted!

YES, GREEK GODS ARE PROPER NOUNS!

Your word must appear in the Online Dictionary: http://dictionary.reference.com/

You may not edit or delete any posts in this thread for any reason. Make certain your answer is final before submitting.

If a duplicate answer is submitted within 2 minutes of the previous answer leeway will be granted to the 2nd poster and no penalty will be assessed.

A penalty of -0.50 in Corral Cash will be assessed for any rule violation, so be careful before posting your new word!

If you have the "last word" in a 24-hour period, you are the winner of at least $10.00 in Corral Cash. The Jackpot will grow by $10 CC per page up to a maximum of $100 CC!

If any member updates the word list every few pages, they will receive $0.50 bonus Corral Cash!

Get it? Got it? Good!

The Game begins with the word following this post.

Remember, I'm around only at night to moderate the game, so be patient if a dispute arises!

Good Luck!

Sloe is a repeated word, according to Linda's update a couple of pages ago.

FER CRYING OUT LOUD, CG!

If you repeat words in the game, then the terrists have won! I expect this from some of the other players, but you should know better.

[The Charlton Guy]

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a240/the-charlton-guy/bush-abdullah-crawford-2-2005-250.jpg

Now lookit Shake Yertooty, you assureded me that that that sloe wus a good wurd.

Well, it ain't a good word. An what the heck am I suppsosed to do now?

Granited, I have lots of Coral Cash goin fer me right now, but hell, with oils at neerly $80 a barral that ain't gonna last long!

Now I has to go back to that stupid dicchinario.commo and tryan find another dang wurd!

This wurd stuff is harder than its cranked up to be...

[The Charlton Guy]

"Sheik Bush, theese is not a problem."

"Here, here, here, take this."

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a240/the-charlton-guy/BushSaudiCash.jpg

"This is more Coral Cash than you will see outside of the Afghanistan drug cartels."

"Take it and buy yourself a good word."

"A very good word."

"A very expensive word."

[marvelguy]

So, what's the word now? The Sheik wouldn't like this at all. Remember that Iron Sheik fella from the WWF? Don't make him give you a TOMBSTONE move.

[The Charlton Guy]

"Mr. President, now is not the time to be joining back in with this bunch of Change One Letter fanatics."

"You need to watch your step closely. If word of this Corral Cash business gets out..."

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a240/the-charlton-guy/rumsfeldbush.gif

"Jeez, you need to lightin up Rummy."

"Smoke a ceegar or sumpthin."

"Go start a few more imfructions or supmthin."

[marvelguy]

The Iron Sheik

http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f355/lolashadi/ironsheikwwfbelt.jpg

[Hoss]

The current word is ALOE

[marvelguy]

So ALOE is the last good word, D'oh, I have missed that by a mile.

How about ABOE? That's close as a furren word as it gets as it's spoken by indians in these parts.

[The Charlton Guy]

The Iron Sheik

http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f355/lolashadi/ironsheikwwfbelt.jpg

Heeeyyyyyy! Iorn Sheek!

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a240/the-charlton-guy/16-george.jpg

Long time no car tell!

[The Charlton Guy]

"Aboe...aboe...abow? A bow? A boe. No, Aboo? No. A Boe?"

"Aboe."

"Dam!"

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a240/the-charlton-guy/bushgw.jpg

"Why the hell didnt my addvissers tell me about that one..."







"Psssst, Marvelguoy, I has $200 in Coral Cash. Wanna sells the mining rights to A-Boe?"

[marvelguy]

Sheeeshhhh! No thanks, I don't want a Halliburton on my hands. :lol:

[The Charlton Guy]

"Now wait a gosh darn minute Helen!"

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a240/the-charlton-guy/20060512162409990018.jpg

"It's as clear as the prescription bottles in Rush Limbaugh's luggage!"

"There has been, nor will there ever be, any collusion or monetary misdeed befallen on the Change One Letter Game on the part of the President of the United States!"

"At least, not until I receive my kickback from the Fox Network!"

[The Charlton Guy]

"Can you say..."

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a240/the-charlton-guy/untitled-4.jpg

"Field Day?"

[marvelguy]

:shock:
Now, that's a scary looking woman. No way she would be my teacher, school bus driver, nurse. etc...... maybe she's better off with that Iron Sheik fella.

[The Charlton Guy]

"Come on Marvelgoy!"

"Ferget the Coral Cash!"

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a240/the-charlton-guy/bush-coral-cash.jpg

"I'll give ya real cash monney fer the rights to Aboe!"

"But first ya gots to tell me what the heck it meeens thuogh..."

"Come on!"

"I really wanna gnow!"

"Cash monney!"

"No Hallibuttin...just betwean you and W!"

[The Charlton Guy]

"I found it!"

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a240/the-charlton-guy/capt.jpg

"Thats right folks...I found the wurd!"

"Marvelgoy? You can keep yer ol' ABoe, I finally used my wits and cameded up with a sulution!"

"The wurd is: GLOE!"

"Hell, that was too easy! Alls I had to dood is used that fancy internet Acronymy Finder!"

"What a handy tool that be!"

"GLOE!"

"I jus love the sound of that!"

"Sounds like a roudy golf tee off on a Munday mornin!"

"GLOE!"

[jaeldubyoo]

Am I too late? I didn't have the time to check in.

ALOW

[The Charlton Guy]

See!

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a240/the-charlton-guy/capt.jpg

"Jes lahk I said!"

Waytago Jaydubyoowannabee!

"GLOE!"

"Gloe? Did I say that?"

"Nawwww..."

"I say:"

"GLOW!"

[jaeldubyoo]

uh, glow was previously used.

[The Charlton Guy]

"He did not say that..."

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a240/the-charlton-guy/20060512162409990018.jpg

"He most decidedly did not say 'GLOW'."

"At the very least, he most decidedly did not mean 'GLOW'".

"He meant, 'GLOO'"

"We need to make that clear right here and right now."

"GLOO."

"It's as plain as the shoe polish on Sam Donaldson's hair!"

[jaeldubyoo]

What the H-E-double-sticks is GLOO?

[jaeldubyoo]

Even if gloo was legal (it's not) that's a two letter change.

[slucas76]

I think the next word needs to be melee.

Are we still on ALOW?

If so, I say AVOW

[The Charlton Guy]

I think the next word needs to be melee.

avos

I must say that I am all three, shocked, befuddled, and most certainly confused. #dunno# #surrender#

I think that CW is making the rules up as he goes. (Note: That is not necessarily a political point that I'm trying to make.) :lol:

I don't think that avos is legal and that's not just because I'm trying to win the game. I mean, I am trying to win the game, but I want to win without bringing up a technicality.

[fulltimer56]

Damn, what's the newest LEGAL word right now???

I'm so lost!!! #dunno#

Linda

[marvelguy]

I know you're lost, that's the propaganda machine at work here by the CW empire.

"Shock, befuddle, and awe" is the mission statement of the day.

Maybe this person is responsible for the approval of this confusion.

http://i86.photobucket.com/albums/k90/mshell_02/CondoleezzaRice.jpg

Yeah, yeah, she's the Sec. of State. Let's see if she can handle this mess.
"Hey, Madam Rice, what's the current word, legally?"

:roll:

[jaeldubyoo]

ABOS

[jaeldubyoo]

Oops, jumped the gun. Are we still waiting for a ruling?

[The Charlton Guy]

Hullow? Shake Yertooty?

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a240/the-charlton-guy/43_06.jpg

Yeah, even Condi doesn't know what to make of all of this.

The "Shick, Befoddle and Confused" campaign has kind of gong southern.

Any ideas? Any good Arab dessert wurds I cud use?

Even Hoss doesn't wanna go anywhere neer a ruling on this mess.

[The Charlton Guy]

W.

We have spoken so many times about thees.

You can not come on one hand and say that you hate "furren wurds"
and then come on the other and say "give me a good Arab dessert wurd"

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a240/the-charlton-guy/bushabdullah.jpg

But here's waht I'll do.

Just this once, I will give you an Arab dessert wurd that will be a surefire Game Winner.

But you will have to pay deerly...again.

My accountant will call you in the morning.

[The Charlton Guy]

Oooohhh...I really need to think this over...

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a240/the-charlton-guy/bush_hands.jpg

I reeely HAT those furren wurds and every thang thay stooded for!

But even Moore-so, I HAT TO LOSE!

Alright Shake, Im goin fer it!

[The Charlton Guy]

abas
a·ba ( P ) Pronunciation Key (-bä, äb)
n.
A fabric woven of the hair of camels or goats.
A loose-fitting sleeveless garment made of this fabric, traditionally worn by Arabs.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Arabic ‘ab’.]

[The Charlton Guy]

Golly Shake! That wasnot neerly as bad as I thoud it woulded be!

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a240/the-charlton-guy/bush-to-press-saudi-prince-on-oil-a.jpg

It's a good Arab wurd. A very good Arab wurd.

A nobble Arab wurd.

[marvelguy]

Wait a minute, I still have a good way to keep this game going.

ALAS is the word of choice now.

http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y11/cosmicwind/th_KarlRove.jpg

OK, I know a way to keep things going, huh? Trust me, my track record stands for itself.

[Hoss]

The current word is AVOW :x

[jaeldubyoo]

If avow is the last word...

AROW

[marvelguy]

CROW

http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f269/x_CJ_4_Lyfe_x/jessejackson.jpg

I'm thinking there's something wrong with this empire. Don't tell me that I'm wrong here. I'm just saying this is the right way to go.

[fulltimer56]

Maybe someone (Hoss?) could put up a updated list! Because I'm not sure which words to add to it!! :?:

Matt Lauer here on the set of Today to talk about the tragedy that has befallen the "[GAME] Change One Letter (Round 8) Rules added for newbies!" at the Comics Corral. In the past, this game has been fraught with what the Charlton W calls "terrist activity full of furren words designed to bring down the very core of values and beliefs that we hold dear as Corralers." Katie is on the scene at the game with the story.

http://www.cbsnews.com/images/2006/05/31/imageNYET77805311220.jpg

Wait a minute, I'm not even on the Today show. What the--? Oh, we're on? Okay, hey folks out there in TV land. As you hear from Matt, there has been a controversy brewing here at the Corral. The Charlton W, having vowed to clean up the "furren word" debate, himself was accused several times this round of using "furren words". These words are allegedly provided to the W administration by Shake Yertooty, a known advocate of "furren word" use. After his most recent campaign of "Shock, Awe, and Confuse" and the damning allegations, The Charlton W was not available for comment on the situation. However, I do have local resident of a neighboring town, Red Redneck. Red?

http://www.keiths.org/Redneck-Humor/you-might-be-a-redneck.jpg

I tell you what, Katie. It was pandelerium here at the corral. My toilet is out on the front porch...and this is my inside toilet..and you don't even want to know where the kitchen sink is.

http://www.cbsnews.com/images/2006/05/31/imageNYET77805311220.jpg

This is the guy that we got? Oh sh---I'm on the air, again? Thank you, Red, very enlightening. The good news in the Corral is that Administrator Hoss has arrived on the scene and restored the peace amid the Chaos. Thanks for everything you do, Hoss!

Back to you, Matt.

Mea culpa. Guilty as charged. :oops:

I was in such a rush yesterday to sneak in a word before getting my daughter to bed that I posted a word from a list I anticipated on using. I just got ahead of myself.

Looks like a winner, Linda. Congratulations!

[The Charlton Guy]

...I posted a word from a list I anticipated on using...


:roll:

...and I thought I was bad...

You are hopelessly addicted to this Game.

Hoss, you've created a MONSTER!

We'll have to start up COL-ANON to deal with this...

[fulltimer56]

Well, I guess I will have to join too!! I also try to think up words ahead of time too. :oops:

[Hoss]

Well get those thinking caps on! The next round will begin moments from now!

Congrats on winning THIS round Linda! Here are $100 Corral Cash!

Hoss
