Word Games Meme

This Meme is made up of several different kinds of word games. Most taken from the Radio Series Cabin Pressure.

1) Post with your character, putting preferences in the subject line
2) Others go to RNG for which game to play or just pick one
3) For whatever number was rolled, now those two characters are playing that word game

OPTIONS:
1) Question and Answer - Film Double Bill: Use one film to ask a question and another to answer it. (For example: What's Eating Gilbert Grape? Twelve Monkeys - feel free to chat about other things as you think of or search for film titles.)

2) Speak with Words of One Sound: In this game words must not have more than one syl - sound. The first one to use a word with more than one sound will lose.

3) Starts with "_": in this game roll again between 1-26 to determine which letter is the blank. Now, every sentence must start with a word that starts with that letter. Next, who knows, but this letter was "N".

4) Alternate Definition: Come up with a word or use the random word generator, then provide an improved definition for the word. For Example: Paradox, pronounced par’-u-doks. Meaning: two physicians. To make it more interesting use it in a sentence to carry on the conversation: I entered the hospital and a paradox were waiting to help me.

5) Famous People Who Aren't Evil, but Have Evil Sounding Names: Name as many as you can within 10 tags. Feel free to argue/justify your choices.

6) Books That Sound More Interesting with the Final Letter Knocked-off: Take the last letter off the last word of a book title. (For instance Of Mice and Men becomes Of Mice and Me.)

7) Impromptu Tribute to Dr. Seuss: Say things that are happy or things that are sappy, just say things that rhyme the entire time.

8) Random Word in a Sentence: Using the random word generator, whatever word is generated must be worked into the next comment in a spoken sentence. Please bold the word so others know what word you were given. To plague you with difficulties, make sure the sentence still makes sense in context of the conversation.

Word games? Oh, I love a good word game.

[Have a - Doc - with a grin like a loon.]

8 - could be interesting

[elphabathropp]

[Elphaba hates starting conversations. It's not like anyone likes her anyway.]

Excuse me, Sir, but what is that lump on the side of your head?

[She's seen some interesting things in her life, but that hair... doing that? Is quite odd.]

\o/

[technosorcerer]

I love them too. And this one is fun.

[10th_doctor]

Fun. But not hard. Just need to think first.

So! What do you do?

[technosorcerer]

That's the real trick, I think.

Lots of things. Which one do you want to know?

[10th_doctor]

"Lots of things?" That does not say much. Why not list some? And if one peaks my mind, I will ask for you to say more.

[technosorcerer]

I'm a witch, sort of. There's no good short word for it. And I work with tech.

[10th_doctor]

A witch!? Oh, brill-- I have not met a witch. I am the Doc-- Yes. Doc.

[He sounds not glad to make his name so small.]

[technosorcerer]

Close to that, at least.

Nice to meet you, Doc. Call me Will.

[10th_doctor]

Can you show me a trick? I love tricks?

[Though, he knows most tricks have a choice of gist one can use.]

[technosorcerer]

[A quick, small smirk.] I know some tricks. What kind of trick do you want to see?

[10th_doctor]

One that will make me say, "Wow!"

[He grins like a loon.]

[technosorcerer]

All right. I think I know one or two like that.

[He grins, and takes out his phone. He pulls a spark from the back of the phone and holds it in the palm of his hand. The spark grows and turns shade and shape to look like the Doc.]

[10th_doctor]

Wow! Can I see the phone?

[He needs to know how this works.]

[technosorcerer]

Sure. [He holds it out. The phone is not the trick, though. Good luck when you try to learn from it how the trick works.]

[10th_doctor]

[He takes out his noise thing and scans the phone. He looks at a loss for how the trick was done.]

So, you are a witch. Well done! Most who claim to be a witch are not....

"Hello ma'am, I was just coming to you to bring you the mail we found in our mailbox this afternoon. It sort of looks important!"

[mjn_air]

[Carolyn smiles as she takes the package.]

Well bang-on job! It is important. You see, we at MJN Air, though we are a more like an air-dot than an airline, we run it proper. And in order to be proper, we require certain certificates to be displayed in our mangers office.

[She gestures to the envelope.]

And this package contains one such item.

[beautifulsavages]

O notes what the woman says with a smile and a nod. "I am so glad that I brought it over then! My mother probably would have thrown it out instead," she says conversationally.

O then takes another sip from her water, draining the plastic bottle quickly. "Oh, might I throw this in your recyclables?" Ben had gotten her trained to be as Green as she possibly could. So, she always did her best to recycle.

[mjn_air]

[Carolyn gestures to the proper bin.]

Of course, I grant my permission. Recycling is everyone's duty, after all.
