ROAD TRIP: A BBM Game
Meryl:
Never enough games, never enough! This one is adapted from "Cities of the World," a game I used to play on another message board.
GAME RULES:
One person posts the name of a town or city. The next person takes the last letter in that name and posts a new town or city that begins with that letter.
Example: New York City is followed by Yakima, which is followed by Annapolis, etc.
The twist here (pun intended) is that only towns and cities from WYOMING, TEXAS, ALBERTA and MEXICO will be accepted. ;D
Edit 5/4/07: A new twist! The XYZ Rule: When a town is posted that ends in X, Y, or Z, an automatic SIDE TRIP is in effect. The following town can begin with any letter. (You still must leave 2 posts between before you can post again, though).
Some clarifications:
Leave at least two turns between each of your posts.
If you play out of turn, start with an incorrect letter, or repeat the name of a town already played, you may be asked to edit or delete your post, or in some cases I may declare a SIDE TRIP and let the next poster start with a fresh letter. Check the Answers Played List on this forum or use the Search function at the top of the page to find out whether a name has been played.
Any name found not to be an actual incorporated town will be subject to disqualification (using Google is recommended).
The name must be a town or a city of any size. Counties, geographical formations, military bases, parks and such aren't acceptable.
If we reach a point where there are no more towns beginning with a certain letter, I will declare a ROADBLOCK and ask the last poster to begin with a fresh name and new beginning letter.
If you'd like, feel free to add a brief comment about your choice of city for our edification and enjoyment. Photos are okay, too. 8)
I hope you enjoy! :-*
