History, Science, and Interesting Information - The Great Library / What does that mean?
« on: November 05, 2011, 01:00:02 PM »
Okay, this is the intellectual equivalent of a forum game. Essentially someone posts an unusual, little-known or interesting word, the next poster has to find another unusual or interesting word starting with the last letter of the previous one.

Here goes:

Croodle - Verb
Meaning to cower, crouch, draw together for warmth or cling close to someone e.g. "We huddled under the bridge, croodling together helplessly as we struggled for warmth in the bitter weather."

Next person gets E.  :)

On the bright side, first Uni offer: A* A A from Exeter. Which is horribly, horribly high, but an offer is an offer.

On the minus side, PAIN.

Poetry and Artistic Writing / Re: Andalus' poetry

"All hail the speaker of no hatred!"
"Let us make him our leader!"
"We shall obey his command!"
"What does the speaker say to his people?"
"The speaker... demands... toilet training!"
  :P

It's a good poem, though the rhythm scheme feels off in places - "Homo sapiens sapiens", for example.

Finished/Dead Mafias and RPGs / Re: MURDER ON THE ABYSSINIA: GAME THREAD

Day dawns...

And another one bites the dust. Having lost the second greatest deductive mind in the world, the passengers suddenly found that the greatest was torn from their midst. The fat, ostensibly lazy form of CN2, Mycroft Holmes, had been only a shield for the mind so great it essentially ran the government of Britain's great Empire. He is discovered in the hallway, pale and shaking, half-paralysed and unable to talk. A spike has been shot into his shoulder, coated with some unknown venom. Whatever poison he has been affected by will take a long time to heal... if it ever does. A bleak day for the Abyssinia.

CN2, Mycroft Holmes, Deductive Genius, Poisoned Night Two

IT IS DAY. 10 Left, 6 to lynch.

GOGOGO!
