This is all in good nature, so try not to get overly competitive. Here's the gameplan: I shall list some obscure words, words that are not easy to slide into everyday conversation. Your job is to see how many of these words you can fit (sensically) into conversation in comments on Hubski* over the course of a week
[*See rule No. 3]
Rules:
>1) Making it known that your use of the word is for the purpose of this challenge renders that usage obsolete as far as scoring goes.
>2) You must provide links to your uses. This is to remove the risk of people making false score claims.
>3) Due to the close-knit community nature of Hubski, too many people may end up in on the game for this to work, so feel free to earn points by using the word(s) in comment sections of other websites, so long as any link to that comment will remain active (Other rules still apply)
>4) The use of the word(s) must be in a grammatically correct sentence. So no simple throwing random words into comments for points.
I am aware that this is an unusual idea, so feel free to tell me to jog on if you are not fond of the idea. I simply ask that you give it a chance. Other rule suggestions are welcome, and if this idea gets enough support i shall create the first Hubski Word Challenge word list Post in 2 days time (on the 12th of August) with the tag #HubskiWordGame
Everything you see here is open to suggestion and criticism, so let loose the words of war.
Me too. I have a suggestion for a word that appeared in #storyclub: "vessel" - The word gave me a pause. I didn't know if the author meant a boat or a container of some sort. It's been a while since I have seen that word.
Thank you for the suggestion! When The first game begins i will give credit to whoever suggests words, thank you!
I'm in. I'm officially following #hubskiwordgame. Great idea.
