    Hopefully this works out the way I think it will.

    Each poster posts two letters, and the idea is to try and create a word in your post.

    For example;

    Poster 1- CR

    poster 2- UI

    My post- SE ... CRUISE


    Posters could continue to post two letters at a time until any word can be made out of the letters. If you make a word in your post state your two letters then state the word you have created to let everyone know.

    If out of the last ten letters no word can be made, except for the last two in the previous post, including your own two, that's fine. One doesn't have to use every set of letters contributed, but the ones you use have to be in the order the poster posted them in.

    Example-

    Post 1- DE

    Post 2- FO

    My post- RM...FORM (It's okay to not use all the previous letters, as long as a word can be made).

    The idea is to try and make a word in every or any post using any of the consecutively posted previous letters. If you cannot create a word using any of the letters in the posts before your own then at least try to contribute letters that could benefit the next poster. Obviously those who use the letters of many posts (like creating an 8 letter word using the above posts) is much cooler than simply going for a 4 letter word. If possible lets try and refrain from using 4 letter words over and over.

    It would take the cooperation of each poster to post letters that can potentially create a word. For example; if someone posts the letters ED...following that up with ZQ isn't going to do any good to anyone. ES or something like that would be more beneficial.

    It might take a bit of thought process but it could be fun. Bottom line, if you can't create a word, then at least try to contribute useable letters for the next poster.

    And remember- Try to go for words that have more than 4 letters, it will keep things more interesting.

    Like every thread in forum games, whoever gets post number 1000 wins :D

    If you create a word on the 1000th post using previous letters, you get scrabble rep!

    Happy posting :)

    This is complicated. Keeping track of the available letters could be challenging. Here's what I see available up to this point - assuming the used letters drop out of the list:

    AB & ID from Lunarverse
    SE from LovelyHippie
    TA from countrygirl

    Maybe this is cheating...but I can't resist, cuz it uses so many of the available letters:

    ABIDEST

    It's an archaic word - as in "thou abidest" - do I get away with it?

    That leaves just:

    A

    plus my contribution:

    TE
