OK, so I'm bored. Which leads me to do random stuff like this. :D In this thread, we will be playing a Japanese word game called "Shiritori". In this game, the players will say a new word that starts with the previous words last "kana" (i.e. - the word "sakura". The "ra" part is the final kana.). The rules are quite simple. They go like this:
1) Only nouns can be used.
2) Words may not be repeated.
3) A person who uses a word that ends with the kana "N" automatically loses, since there are no words that begin with that kana.
A more detailed explanation of the game can be found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiritori (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiritori) . Unfortunately, if you don't know Japanese very well or not at all, this game most likely will not work out for you. ;) Make sure to either make the last kana bold, change the color, add quotation marks or etc, so people don't get confused and/or things don't get mixed up. Well, since I started this thread, I'll go first.....

Since time doesn't really factor into the game when playing it over a forum, might I suggest an extra rule? That being that each ending can only be used once. So, for example, after 'negai' came out, 'noroi' would be a failure.

Although, that would make things more tricky, I think we should keep going like it has been. I think this thread will make it easier and less stressful for people learning or brushing up on their Japanese, if we keep the rules more simple/open-ended. ;)
Anyways, on to the game......

Er....you used a word that ends with the kana "N". Doing so stops the game because you lost. :P Although, it's not too late and edit it. ;)

Well then, join in on the fun, Mamo. :P
Someone else has to go, since I was the last one to post a word.

I posted that over 5 years ago.... *whaps tenken with salmon*

Wow...
I haven't seen the "1) Only nouns can be used." rule at other places I've played this game. That's in the normal game?
And with 9 pages of posts, the "can not be repeated" rule becomes kinda hard to manage :P

Yeah, I know, but you said back then that the thread should be resurrected. Since no one else bothered to take action, I did. ;)

As far as I know, the "only nouns can be used" rule is one of the basic rules for the normal game. I think the other shiritori games you have seen elsewhere were bending the rules in one way or another. ;)
Nah, just 9 pages of posts is nothing. You just have to use your imagination and be creative. ;D
