The name of the game is "Word by Word Story" Rules: 1. The Story is ongoing. 2. Each poster may add one word. 3. At least two other posters must post before you can contribute again. *Have fun, and I hope this doesn't fail so quickly like my last attempt at a game. **First poster (besides me) get to start the story. EDIT: Punctuation is not necessary, but if you must it does not count as a word (just to specify.) -"Young" James "To my mathematical brain, the numbers alone make thinking about aliens perfectly rational.

Not to derail the thread, but more in a way of being informative..... I wanted to continue the game by posting simply 'a', as in...One time in a (land far away, or whatever). The forum code would not allow me to simply post 'a'.... It came back with a popup saying I had to have a message to make a post. So, the letter 'a' is not considered a word. This could be a problem in the context of this game..... In other words, if somebody were trying to post 'There was an old lady who lived in a shoe' word by word, you could not do it. So, you might have to allow anything following 'a' to count as a single word. As in 'a land' or 'a shoe'. Just so's ya know. Carry on, then. One time in the.......
