Somebody posts two words/ things that are completely unrelated (e.g water>media)
and the next has to relate them in a manner such as this:
water>beverage>beer>Alcoholic>homer simpson>the simpsons>Television>media
and then post two new words
to start...
Pastry>Michael Jackson

Pastry>Pasta>food>ugly>singer>Michael Jackson

Like that?

[Trainman 2000]

The words have to be related by meanings or sometimes you can use polar antonyms. Pastry isnt really like pasta, and food and ugly don't either, but you're catching on. I would have said
Pastry>food>eating>gluttony>7 sins> Pride>Appearance>beauty<>ugly >Michael Jackson
New one,
Death>Algorithms
or, easier
School>Bed

P.S. <> means opposite. Max use is one, but you shouldn't use them at all

this is confusing

Here is some history on this game:
when i was about 4, i often went to florida to see my friend
when i got back i was always very sad, and my mother told me to think about happy things
i related them all to my friend, and from that, word relations was born

and daily and bored don't go together

[shellster]

this is confusing

it involves too much thinking

[Trainman 2000]

Try working backwards halfway, then forwards halfway
I know it's hard
School>daily>routine>sleep>bed
They have to be related!

[GigaFanatic]

ok let me try...

RCT>computer>mouse>cheese

is that right??
