Are you really ready to give up that cause, bethie?
I'm nearly 6 years into that, and flagging ...
Are we ready to restart this game?
Do you need someone to take over?
Yes Justthefax, just sent mac11 a pm and she'll put you in the picture. This was a marvellous thread! I'm sure all the old players will join in again.
I leave for a while on important business...I come back momentarily, and lo...the ADD A LETTER game is not on Page 1 !!!
Where is Mac?
Who's running this game now?
Now it is
Mac - have you had enough of this game yet?

If anyone's interested in taking over, send me a PM.
Bibliophile the BibleGuru that is what mac11 said in July last year, the game has been at a standstill ever since, Do you intend to kick it back into life?
A trip down memory lane
These were the original rules that I posted back in December 2002:
Rules:
1. INSERT a new letter into the previous word, in any position, to form a new word.
2. or INSERT a new letter into the previous word, and REARRANGE all the letters to form a new word.
3. The purpose of each Game is to create the LONGEST word possible.
4. Names, Places or Plural words are permitted, provided they comply with RULE 6.
5. In the event of a cross-post (i.e. when multiple posts are sent at the same time) the first RECORDED post on the site will be the new word. All subsequent new words will be based on the FIRST of the cross-post entries. The remaining cross-posts will be ignored and discounted to avoid confusion.
6. All words MUST be found in Webster's Dictionary - 10th Edition.
7. The Forum Guide will declare when a word has reached its size-limit, and accordingly, announce the winner of the LONGEST word in each game.
8. The Forum Guide will initiate all NEW word Games.
9. In the event of a dispute, correction or inquiry, a PRIVATE MESSAGE should be sent to the Forum Guide - that's currently, Bibliophile the BibleGuru.
10. In the interests of fairness, and to encourage other players to participate, no member should post two CONSECUTIVE solutions, or MULTIPLE solutions within a single post. Thank you.
Now, I cant remember what's involved in being a FORUM GUIDE...who do I need to ask?
I wonder if the rules have changed for FORUM GUIDES...can anyone point me in the right direction?

I suggest send jespah a pm. You can find her on the "Break Up Letter" thread. Her Avatar states she is the Project Manager and the Administrator.
I liked this game; happy to support its resurgence!
Dutchy - thanks for the pointer...
I've sent a PM to Jespah asking to return as Forum Guide.
I hope you'll all welcome me back
Welcome back, Bib. A pleasure to see you again, my friend.
Clary - thank you.
I'll do my best to revive it.
Letty, Letty, Letty...
Are you posing in that avatar for me?
I'm embarrassed
Nice to see you again.
Bib, feel free to get the game going again.
