So I assume all the letters in the word have to be in the same row or column as the word outside the grid -- not just one?

And do they have to go in order from left to right, or can we re-arrange them.

Passacaglia · 02-14-2007, 09:37 AM

hoops, I see you lurking. Any more questions for us?

ImTheCrew · 02-14-2007, 09:40 AM

how did all of you guys know who the SEER was?

There are some clues to it in Barkeep's post that reported his death.

You may re-arrange the letters with-in a row or column, but the letters must be from the same row or column as the starting letter.

No, we had eight, now we have seven, with me, Kwhit and JE, that still leaves us 4-3.

My problem with today's challengeiis that I'm lousy at word chellenegs. I have 133t skillz at throwing the rock, but I am teh suxx0rz at mixing up letters into words and whatnot.

Passacaglia · 02-14-2007, 10:04 AM

I'll get us started. How about "Quaint" for the Q row?

Passacaglia · 02-14-2007, 10:10 AM

I'm working on J next. That one seems harder -- might want to do just three or four letters for it.

Passacaglia · 02-14-2007, 10:12 AM

Well, for the A row I have ANOTHER.

I'm just trying to come up with as many big words as I can. Please don't let this be set in stone or anything -- that onle hurts flexibility later.

What do you all think of ISTLES for the I row?

Passacaglia · 02-14-2007, 10:26 AM

Um, I mean ISTLE.

ImTheCrew · 02-14-2007, 10:27 AM

What about kanga? that one seems iffy on dictionary.com

No proper nouns accepted. I'll have to look mine over again, but I think I'm okay.

Poli · 02-14-2007, 10:34 AM

Apparently Kwhit's idol was false. I had sent the idol to golden eagle.

So you knew he was the seer?

Poli · 02-14-2007, 10:38 AM

As I mentioned previously, I had a strong gut feeling about it. It had more to do with how people play than anything.

Poli · 02-14-2007, 10:49 AM

Well, there you have it. This wasn't so much protection on my part or my tribe's part, fellas. This was protecting barkeep and GE for the deleted posts thing.

Friggin ITC. I can't blame him, much, though. It's not like he totally understood the situation. Heck, I PMed Barkeep to find out why those posts were deleted myself.

I just with barkeep would have PMed the entire tribe to let them know why and to keep their mouths shut. Oh well.

ImTheCrew · 02-14-2007, 10:52 AM

sorry im ner :-(

ImTheCrew · 02-14-2007, 10:53 AM

i just figured since everyone knew that he was the Seer it didnt really matter, sorry AE and i really didnt even think you saw it(i didnt see you on at that time

)

Passacaglia · 02-14-2007, 10:54 AM

I think ITC was in the right, actually. Especially at this point -- if one tribe gets knowledge unfairly, shouldn't everyone?

Passacaglia · 02-14-2007, 10:57 AM

To be honest, the whole mess starts with cronin talking about Lathum being cleared, and RA being a wolf. If mouths had been shut back then, all of this would have been avoided. Unless RA really did admit to being a wolf without being scanned, which seems off, since we now know that GE did scan him -- RA would have had to admit to being a wolf, then have that backed up by the seer later. Makes no sense.

ImTheCrew · 02-14-2007, 10:59 AM

i apoligize for any bending of the rules, i didnt really think of it being that much that i knew who the seer was.

Sounds like it was GE who bent the rules. I wouldn't worry.

Barkeep49 · 02-14-2007, 11:05 AM

I have no problem with this information coming out. People were always free to talk about it, though obviously there was a reason people didn't. The idea, for GE, was never to hide the information from OZ. He thought he could then edit the post later to prevent others from seeing it. This wasn't kosher, but instead we made the whole situation go down like that anyway as it was the fairest thing to do. I honestly didn't realize ITC had seen that info either.

Passacaglia · 02-14-2007, 11:06 AM

In order to make room for KIANG, I changed BAGEL to BLEAT.

The odd thing about it all is that no one outside of Oz saw it anyway. So it was much ado about nothing, in a way. I guess I just wonder how the game would have played out if the Ozzites didn't feel like they weren't "supposed" to know about it.

Passacaglia · 02-14-2007, 11:09 AM

I've really screwed myself with my E row. All I have now, with the words I've used is A, P, I, M, E, M.

Passacaglia · 02-14-2007, 11:11 AM

EMPTIES would work, but then we can't use FASTEN.

ImTheCrew · 02-14-2007, 11:12 AM

EAPI is a word

ImTheCrew · 02-14-2007, 11:13 AM

an aconymn

Passacaglia · 02-14-2007, 11:14 AM

I don't think acronyms are technically considered words.

ImTheCrew · 02-14-2007, 11:16 AM

im pretty sure there are no words with thos remaining letters but there are ALOT of acronyms

Right, that's why we need to be flexible, like getting rid of FASTEN so we can make EMPTIES.
