One Word at a Time (a very silly game)

[tdn]

The object of this most demented game is to write a story one word at a time. When you post, copy the entire previous story and add one word to the end of it. You may also add punctuation. You are not allowed to have two turns in a row, nor are you allowed to alter anyone else's work.

Here is an example:

Poster1: The
Poster2: The cabbage
Poster3: The cabbage was
Poster4: The cabbage was omnipresent,

Etc.

The story so far:

OK, Moderator interveneth.

We've generally not permitted word games on the Straight Dope Message Boards. Feels like a waste of bandwidth, plus we get simul-posts, plus...

I'm closing this thread. I will discuss with the other Moderators to determine their consensus, and I will re-open if I'm outvoted.
