@izzythepush,
I was hoping izzy that at least one thread could make wit the primary characteristic rather than playing a kid's game.

I have played crib for very many hours and nobody ever even hinted that I was a difficult opponent or partner. For money too. Card games are silly without money. Treatment in the community type of thing.

Since when have you been in the dumbing down brigade? It is not just a game at all. It is supposed to be entertaining. And challenging. What's entertaining or challenging about taking 3 letters out of denial and making ionise for no other reason than it was the first one thought of out of a large number of possibilities.

Making labias out of it provides two jokes, at least, depending which way you look at it. Meaningful jokes too.

Do you not wish to try to amuse us or is it a lack of confidence that you can.

Most of my contributions on the other game threads try to amuse. It isn't always possible due to the limits set. But this inspired game is far more open ended. And everybody here will deny having a closed mind I'm sure. But when tested they fall at the first hurdle. It turns out to be another self-flattering assertion.

I even gave a demo to show how easy it is. And this is Ask an Expert. What caused you to come to a site with that name when you resist a slight attempt at some expertise.

Those who think it is just a game have missed quite a lot of good jokes over the years due to not expecting to find any.

In the 4 letter game would you go from "clay" to "clap" or to "clag". "Clad" doesn't do anything for me. I could stretch to "clam" at a push. "Clan" isn't bad anthropologically. It's smut-free though. How about Yale? They mould the clay there I heard.

@spendius,
Bleach, as in blonde, anuses etc. (You are right, it's 'types' not 'type' so 'are' is correct.)

@spendius,
BTW--

Quote:
First attested in English in the mid-15th century, the word carat came from Middle French carat, in turn from Italian carato, which came from Arabic qīrāṭ (قيراط), which came from Greek kerátion (κεράτιον) meaning carob seed (literally "small horn")[4][5][6] (diminutive of - keras, "horn"[7]) and was a unit of weight[8] though it was not likely used to measure gold in classical times.[4] The Latin word for carat is siliqua. This common belief that carat derives from carob seeds stems from the assumption that the seeds had unusually low variability in mass.

However, one group of researchers have found that carob seeds in fact have typical variability compared to the seeds of other species.[9]

This was not the only reason. It is said that, in order to keep regional buyers and sellers of gold honest, potential customers could retrieve their own carob seeds on their way to the market, to check the tolerances of the seeds used by the merchant. If this precaution was not taken, the potential customers would be at the mercy of "2 sets of carob seeds". One set of "heavier" carob seeds would be used when buying from a customer (making the seller's gold appear to be less). Another, lighter set of carob seeds would be used when the merchant wanted to sell to a customer.[citation needed]

In the past, each country had its own carat. It was often used for weighing gold. Starting in the 1570s, it was used to measure weights of diamonds.


I hadn't thought that the size of the horn was a factor. That is what I read drove Bernie Madoff onwards.

farted. It's my bath time and this game requires time. I'll marinade to "farted".
