DRAGONMOUNT

A WHEEL OF TIME COMMUNITY

Acronym Game

Recommended Posts

I have seen this game on other sites so I thought we should give it a try. 

 

The theme for this game is "Newspaper Headlines". I will give you a scene from WoT and five random letters and you will then make a great headline.

 

For example: Event = Rand and company leaving the Two Rivers. Letters = A K Y F B   - > Could become "Aes Sedai kidnaps young farmer boys!"  Now, I made it really easy for myself with those letters. You will see that it´s much harder than that.

 

 

1. There will be 5 rounds.

 

2. You have to use the letters in the order they are written. You can´t add words, like a, the, of etc. You can use . , and !. 

 

3. You have three days to come up with the headline - send it to me in a PM. 

 

4. I will then post all of them in this thread and you will vote on the ones you like the most. Write who is your first, second and third choice. It´s okay to comment on the headlines but you are not allowed to say which is yours. And of course you can´t vote for your own. 

 

5. You will then have three days to vote. (As soon as we have the first headlines I will post the second round´s letters, so writing and voting will be during the same days.)

 

6. Points: 

     - 1 point for submitting a headline

     - 1 point for voting

     - 3 points for someone choosing your headline as their number 1

     - 2 points for someone choosing your headline as their number 2

     - 1 point for someone choosing your headline as their number 3

 

7. I will use 5 random letters but will not add X or Q. 

 

8. I will only use scenes from the first six books. That way you won´t get spoiled if you haven´t read the ending. 

 

 

 

Did I forget anything? Just ask if something is not clear. Otherwise - SIGN UP!

 

 

 

 

Points after round 3.

 

Panchi: 6

Ley: 26

Talmanes: 34

TMD: 22

Sooh: 6

Nikon: 25

Happy that you all want to play. 

 

I can't be here reliably. Is that a problem if I want to play or can I go for it anyways?

 

No, the only thing that happens if you miss the deadline is that you will not get any points that round. I´ll sign you up. :)
