Re: Google Game
Actually, this game will never end. The second link down on the last post has nearly all the words in the dictionary...

Re: Google Game
Dang you're right. Time to add some rules:
The round ends if there is no visible way to add a word without the number of results in google being below 30.
When there is no way to add another word, the last person who added a word successfully is the looser of that round.
If you see that there is no way to add a word, you can end the round by saying "[Username] has lost the round".
If the person who lost the round sees that there is a way to add a word, he/she can challenge the person who ended the round by saying "I challenge [username]", and then stating the word that is possible to add.
I hope I didn't really confuse anyone.

Re: Google Game
There are 6 results to that, and when similar links are omitted, there's 8. Sciolykid loses.

Re: Google Game
No, the game hasn't ended yet.
zyzzyva98 got 254 hits, so the next person to post has to add a word that doesn't get the # of results to be under 30. If that's impossible to do, than zyzzyva98 is the looser. But it isn't. So sciolykid101's post doesn't count, because it's under 30.
Basically, you're trying to NOT have the results get under 30.
