Agreed. Maybe, as far as the present game goes, it would provide an additional challenge if the poster of the 'host' word were to set a 'target' for the number of subsidiary words that should be formed? The provider of the final subsidiary could then nominate the next 'host' word. If I'd nominated the current 'host' word, I'd expect to see 100 subsidiary words formed.....Just an idea, please don't think I'm trying to take over the thread, CC!

Oh, no----NOT a problem----always open to suggestions!! If I don't like something, I'll say so----Lord KNOWS, I'm not shy!! LOL In this instance, though, I LIKE the idea----but, what about SIXTY responses, instead----that's 4 pages? That way, also, the sixty-FIRST post would be at the start of a NEW page..... Wha'd'ya think?

Okay! My word, then, ends, at the end of THIS page (that'll be 58 posts, for this word----that's close enough). Whomever makes the last post on THIS page (for those who DON'T know, each page has 15 posts) will make a SECOND post, in-a-row, with a NEW word, that'll show-up on page TWELVE.

Here's an aid, for whomever would like it:
