(I was tempted to steal realisticspeakers' HISTORIOGRAPHICALNESS, but somehow I suspected I wouldn't get away with it.)

A good question. I'd say the scope of this game is limited on purpose, its aim being just finding an uninterrupted series of words that start with the same letter. If we cannot find a real word with the required number of letters, the link is missing, the chain is broken, and we simply go for a new round.

HOWEVER, there is SO MUCH potential in the creation of new words that I think it calls for a game of its own. I'd love to play!

So, Realisticspeakers, what would you say to defining the rules and getting it going?

hypercatalecticalism = 20

I'm finishing up a book on biblical narration that draws the distinction between historiographicalness and historicity.

Reading or writing?

Tsk, tsk, tsk... I said it first...

So all the chat about reading and writing was just to steal my word, Wayne?

Somehow, amidst all the chatter, I just totally missed it. Sorry.

It was 3:03 AM my time.

So, as far as I am concerned, it is up to you and realisticspeakers to fight out who starts the next one.

Time for a new letter, I guess. Your call.

C=1
ch=2. (since I picked this letter I thought I would supply what is most likely the only two letter word [in English, anyway] that starts with “c”) It is an obsolete versions of I.
