Title: A game!
Post by: Marswipp on March 29, 2007, 03:38:58 pm
I'm not sure what to name this game, but "Corruption" sounds suitable; so I'll use that.

The rules are simple:[LIST=1]
The first word: Corruption

"Not surprisingly, only a handful of Thais can remember such a mouthful, although the abbreviated TRANSLATION of the whole is a relatively brief Jewelled city of the god Indra. However, most Thais simply refer to it as Krung Thep, City Angels."

One word per post.
The word must be English, or have an English pronounciation.
The word has to be at least ten characters in length.
Please try to keep the spelling correct. This includes accent marks.

*answering onegtbebe* As long as there are only letters, and no special characters. I think drug names should not be used.

On another note: IUPAC names for various molecules will not be allowed either. In particular, those with numbers. If you are using the common name, avoid those that require the use of Greek letters ( alpha, beta, gamma, delta... )

Now: particular

*accuses darkstorme of insubordination*


Regretfully, insubordination necessitates definitive, inarguable superiority; alternately, structured leadership - hierarchical, unquestioning.

Witnessing tomfoolery (unnecessarily punctilious responders, unedifying vocabulary) inescapably disillusions, engendering disagreement.

Insubordination?  Inapplicable.

Contemptuousness.
