This is basically a random word-type game. I start off with a word, and you guys will type it (or copy/paste it later in the game when it gets inconvienient to type it all), and use at least the last 2 letters to form a word. If you can’t, the person before you gets a point (although it would be kind of pointless to keep up with points here), and you make a word with the last letter instead. No repetition of words.

Example: I give “iron”

Person1: Ir **onto**  
Person2: Iron **tomahawk**  
Person1: Irontoma **hawking** … etc (I’m just assuming hawking is a word for the sake of example. 🙂

The word with which you must begin is… piano.

Well, so much for the one I was previewing (pianostrilobitepiddlemur **kyat** ).

You certainly have come up with an obscure one there, **BigDaiv**. [Dictionary.com](http://Dictionary.com), google, google groups, and teoma all come up empty for kyaramerukorn. What is it?

eh… that’s a gray area… I didn’t plan on two word additions, but if it keeps the game going, so be it. (You guys tack on the most obscure words…)
