Here's the skinny, cats.
I'd like to see as many fully formed sentences as possible based entirely on acronyms.
I demand that each acronym be in circulation already.
No starting a new trend (or trying to) just to get that fly last word or two in.
It'd be nice to see some kind of conversation take place, but since I won't be contributing to maintain my neutrality as judge and jury, alpha and omega, just go wild.
The winner will get an arbitrary prize.

Ummm, I didn't quite get it. I know what an acronym is, but I still wonder how this is supposed to work.

chumloofah 01-08-2007 11:44 AM

NOUN:

A word formed from the initial letters of a name, such as WAC for Women's Army Corps, or by combining initial letters or parts of a series of words, such as radar for radio detecting and ranging.

Yesyes I said I know what an acronym is, but I stll wonder how this game is supposed to work. Could you explain in plain text how, please?

chumloofah 01-08-2007 12:04 PM

Ahhh, gotcha. Just in time, too. I was about to log and go to do something.

I'm looking for sentences that are made up entirely of acronyms.

eg. PMFJI LOL(<-----"lol")

Pardon me for jumping in lots of love.

WAC HAGO FYA

Women's Army Corp Have A Good One For Your Amusement.

All sentences will be ranked on such criteria as number of acronyms used, clarity of complete sentence and whatever else I decide on.

HTH, IOH.


Mighty Midget 01-08-2007 12:08 PM

Ah, I see. Thanks. You mean something like this

only as a competition. Ok, I get you :ok:

chumloofah 01-08-2007 12:21 PM

Right. But using the original definitions and schlopping them together.
Can't say anybody's gonna beat me now that my neutrality's compromised, that WAC one is, imho, pure solid gold genius.

IMHO, STFU ASAP!

Whould this work? (BTW, nothing personal, just couldn't think of a better sentence at the moment).

chumloofah 02-08-2007 08:22 PM

Geez, I was moments away from just giving myself the prize.
Now Sebastianos takes the lead for having the only entry that's not sleeping with the judge.
Surprisingly tricky, eh?
