WACKY WORDS

Saturday September 8
by Djentsch

Tonight's edition of Wacky Word is being brought to you by Test Inc. The only company in Fed right now that comes out and states the Owner is a Test ALT. Now on to our Game.

Tonight's game was hosted by me from my safe little bunker here in Iraq. Our players tonight were Stiddleficks, Scooter, Deklax, Trilleth, and Butters. After a quick review of the rules, which I might have messed up a little, but being the host I'm allowed a little leeway on this matter, we go on with the first word, which was: STUART.

In less than 30 seconds I already had someone try to guess the theme:

Your comm unit signals a tight beam message from Butters, "Mouses?"
tb Butters close

Then the answers started coming in. From Deklax, I got "Some tquarks using artifact RNA teleports". Scooter sent in: "Sane Traders understand arts really tank". Trilleth sent in "Silly traders usually act really tense". Butters had this to say about the word: "Silverhawk teaches U all Traders". And Stiddleficks chose this: Stiddleficks takes unsuspecting adventurers, reviving them

In between all of this, Butters got tonight's theme:

Your comm unit signals a tight beam message from Butters, "names of famouse mouses."

Once all the votes were counted here was the score after the first round:

Scooter 2, Trilleth 2, Butters 1 for the answer to the theme and Deklax got 1 and 1 for the fastest, and Stiddleficks with 1.

We started the next round with the word MICKEY. Answers came at me like bad food rejected by the soldiers in the Mess Hall:

Scooter, "Maybe I can kibosh every yeild"
Deklax, "Meats injected certain Katydidics evoke yawns"
Stiddleficks, "Muttley infuriatingly called kittey evil yesterday"

Poor Trilleth was having word problems:

Your comm unit relays a message from Trilleth, "Nothing here. Sigh."

The scores for this round were: Scooter with 1 vote + 1 for fastest answer, Deklax 2, and Stiddleficks 2

We then moved onto the next word: MIGHTY. Again, the anwers were flying at me faster than Han Solo running from an Imperial Star Destroyer:

Deklax, "Might I get hauled to Yarl?"
Trilleth, "Manufacturers in Getix have TQuarks, yes?"
Stiddleficks, "Mice invade galaxy, horde takes you."
Scooter, "Mars imports great hauls through Yodabunny"

After the dust settled down, and everything was strapped back in, the scores for that round were: Scooter got 3, Deklax got 1 for the fastest, and Trilleth got 2

Seeing as time was starting to grow short for me, we kicked in the warp drive and moved onto the next word: PINKY, which resulted in:

Deklax, "Petrochemicals in Nullspace keep Yo-yoing"
Scooter, "Pine initiates no keepers yet"
Stiddleficks, "Provoking innocent never kills you"

Scores were: Deklax 2 + 1 for the fastest. Scooter and Stiddleficks both got 1 as well

Our second to last word for the night was PIXIE, but a fefw players ran into a problem trying to come up with something, only Deklax producing with: "Perhaps I'm Xenophobic In Earth"

xt now this isn't gonna be fair, only 1 answer?
Your comm unit relays a message from Deklax, "lame"
Your comm unit relays a message from Scooter, "how bout something a little easier? ;p"
Your comm unit relays a message from Deklax, "you can do it guys"
Your comm unit relays a message from Scooter, "restart the clock"

I decided to be nice today.

> xt go ahead

Then at the last seconds of the restarting of the clock:

Scooter, "Planets incur xenophobic intentions eternally"
Trilleth, "Too late? Was AFK... prices in xmetals irk everyone"

Now before I seen Trilleth's answer, we had a little commo problem:

Your comm unit relays a message from Trilleth, "Drat... I was dealing with kids."
> xt ok, make it fast :)
Stiddleficks has left the Wacky channel.
Your comm unit relays a message from Deklax, "hehe we will get through this round"
> xt hope so. ;)
> xt got your answer Trilleth?
Your comm unit relays a message from Trilleth, "I sent it already."
Your comm unit relays a message from Trilleth, "Right as you said "All answers should be in i hope""
> xt ok, lol

Now mind you, she did get her answer in before I even noticed. The scores for this word were:
Deklax 1 + 1 for the fastest, and Trilleth 2

Now we moved onto the last word. Which is good because it was getting close to the time for me to climb out of my safe little hole and have to play nice with the locals.

The last word was BRAIN:

Deklax, "Biocomponents really are included naturally"
Scooter, "Being right always infuriates noone"
Stiddleficks, "Bring rabid animals in now"

The banter on the comms was lively:

Your comm unit relays a message from Deklax, "the most famouse mice of all"
Your comm unit relays a message from Stiddleficks, "mine is real stupid but I was trying for speed though probably not near fast enough"
Your comm unit relays a message from Deklax, "that is my strategy =P"
> xt anyone else?

And the scores for the last word were close: Deklax 1 + 1 for fastest, Stiddleficks 2, and Scooter 2

While I added up the scores from the whole game, the talk was lively and full of cheer.

Your comm unit relays a message from Deklax, "wow tight match"
Your comm unit relays a message from Scooter, "yeppers indeed"
> xt ok, here are the final results
Your comm unit relays a message from Deklax, "I wonder what the final score was"
> xt Bringing up the rear (and kind of glad cause of his diaper) Butters with 1
Your comm unit relays a message from Deklax, "poor butters"
Your comm unit relays a message from Scooter, "alas poor butters"
> xt in front of him is Trilleth and Stiddleficks. both are tied with 6
Your comm unit relays a message from Deklax, "congrats stiddleficks and trilleth!"
Your comm unit relays a message from Deklax, "your not butters!"
Your comm unit relays a message from Deklax, "lol"
> xt just 2 points behind the winner, only missing it by 3 is Scooter
Your comm unit relays a message from Scooter, "cool!"
Your comm unit relays a message from Stiddleficks, "nice"
Your comm unit relays a message from Deklax, "amazing"
> xt and our winner tonight, with 11 points is the one and only Deklax
Your comm unit relays a message from Deklax, "no way"
Your comm unit relays a message from Deklax, "I am truly surprised to take this honor today."
Your comm unit relays a message from Stiddleficks, "congrats"
Your comm unit relays a message from Scooter, "Wtg Dek!"
Your comm unit relays a message from Deklax, "It will be forever memorialized on Crash!"
> xt which makes him also the winner of one of MY slithies
Your comm unit relays a message from Deklax, "Wow!"

Not sure why, but I think that Deklax was thinking he was Brain.

Your comm unit relays a message from Deklax, "Thank you Dj! Now to do what I do every night.... try and take over the world!"
Your comm unit relays a message from Trilleth, "Congrats, Deklax and thanks for the game, DJ :)"
> xt thanks for putting up with the darkness and bare light bulb of my hole here in Iraq. hope that it was fun for you all. :-)

Congratulations to Deklax, and thanks to everyone else that played. Join us every Saturday night for Wacky Words alternating with Fed Word Scramble, at 10.00pm eastern.
