Say, what would you all think of a missing link word association game? Where you post, not the first word you think of, but the word that THAT word triggers?

Ah! And to make it more interesting, the next poster would have to guess the link word, before offering his/her own word?

ETF: I’d play the “Missing Link” game you’re proposing. Of course, there should be a rule that the progression is one that’s accessible to the general public. For example, “colour-faith”, would be acceptable, with “blind” serving as the bridge word. However, someone might think of The Color Purple and then his family’s old car, affectionately dubbed “The Purple Blaster”. “Colour-Blaster” would probably stump everybody else, though.
