Title: Chain Reaction
Post by: The Riddler on March 28, 2010, 03:23:15 AM
Welcome to Chain Reaction, the game where you have to connect words.
Simple enough, I'll give you two words, and you have to connect them, one by one, with other words.

Example:
Sonic to Cycle
Sonic
Boom
Box
Top
Spin
Cycle
Sonic Boom, Boom Box, Box Top, Top Spin, Spin Cycle.

PAR is how many words I was able to do it in off the top of my head. So a Par 3 means there were three words connecting the start and finish.
Generally it's expected that you guys can do the same.


Granted, these will likely end up being long.

We'll have a points system, everyone involved in a chain will earn points. Those who participate more will earn more points, and the shorter the chain, the more points it'll be worth.

Only rules:
-Connections MUST MAKE SENSE.
-Don't be every other post.
-ONE word at a time UNLESS you can connect them entirely on your own. (If you can't think of a full chain, only add one link.)
-Names are fine, as long as they're connectible.

I  gave you two words.
Connect them through a series of words/phrases like I did in the sample.

In the next puzzle, I'll add an extra rule.

what about AAAAAADVENTURE TIME!?
Anyway, it's always Dance Time, in fact, I hear that combination of words every week.

Hamster fight, fight club, club penguin, penguin slide, slide dance?

Oh I think I get it now
so we each add a word until either the final word is reacher or we go passed the par?

You can pass Par. Par is only there to show you how many I did it in off the top of my head.
And you can add one word, or you can complete the puzzle, but no in between.

I can't find any source that says Board Wood works...

I won't accept it.

Puzzle is still at Board.

From what I can see, this can be solved in two more words.

You can only do more than one if you're solving.

Making next puzzle.

Yeah, but the thing is. I knew the answer! I was going to do the exact same thing SkyMyl did! DAMN YOU SKYMYL!

Adjusted the PAR system. Par is now directly linked to how many words are in between start and finish, not including them.
It makes more sense.

PUZZLE TWO:
Love to Blade (Par 4)

Eh, I'm not feeling Potion Magic. Magic Potion, maybe.

Potion is gonna be a hard one to follow up.
Also, don't double (or even triple) post. If you only post one word, you gotta leave it open to the next person.

Puzzle is still at Potion.

That would be Potions Class, and Queen's isn't Queen.

If I deem this unsolvable, we'll start the puzzle over, but it'll be worth one point.

Potion Vial (Ignore this if I am still supposed to leave it open for others)

Yeah, you gotta leave it open.

Vial Merchant

Something like that... But ah, I'll leave it open for others.

I'm so tempted to post Love Potion now, but I won't.

Does Love Making count? =P If so, then:
Love Making
Making Steel
Steel Blade

But it probably doesn't count, which mean I can't think of anything (except Love Making) right now.

I wouldn't accept Making Steel and since I wouldn't accept Sword Blade, I'd have to stop you both at your first words.
