Horse! (Conquer!) Firstly: This game is turn-based. Much like another game we all likely play rather often. It is strictly Sequential, which means this: KEEP THE SAME ORDER. It really screws the game up if you don't go at the right time.
Secondly: On your turn, you say/post a letter onto the the word being formed. Do this in bold, for the sake of clarity. If you spell a word (with the previous letters), then you lose. The word must be at least 3 letters long. The word cannot be a proper noun. For example: Person 1: C Person 2: CO Person 3: CON Person 1:CONQ Person 2: CONQU Person 3: CONQUE Person 1:CONQUER
Person 1 loses in this case.
Thirdly: If you lose 5 rounds (1 round being like the example I showed above), then you lose. Every time you lose a round, you spell another letter in the word "Cake." I will keep track of your score.
Fourthly: If you don't think that a word can be spelled with the letter the person before you posted, then say/post Challenge. If that person can think of a word starting with those letters, you lose the round. If not, that person loses the round.
Fifthly: If you miss a turn, you get a letter, if you miss a 2nd turn, you get replaced, unless you have a good reason why. This is just so we can get the game moving, and not get many interuptions.
I think that's everything. I will be accepting only 4 players (including me) this time around. Please only sign up if you are sure you can take your turn at least once every 48 hours.
I copied rules!

I think the rules of this game may have been written in error...
Rule 4 applies. I challenge. If you can think of a word (not a proper noun) starting with Elbor, you survive the challenge, I lose, and play continues. If you cannot, then you lose the challenge.
The only thing the rules don't cover is what happens after that? Do we backtrack to Elbo, or do we start over with a new letter?
