Thread: Chain Letters

A game based on the game show Chain Letters (1987-1997) which was hosted by many presenters including Jeremy Beadle, Ted Robbins, Allan Stewart and Dave Spikey.

The idea is to start with a word and change one letter each time. You cannot change one letter each time
Put the letter youve changed in BOLD

EG

lake
sake
save
have
hare
harp
carp
cars
caps
cops
cope
rope
ripe

etc etc

I'll start with:

shoe

Sho​w

Snow

K​now

knot

Are we stuck with four letter words, or can we add or subtract a letter?
EG
Knot
(K)not
note
noted

I think people would start using plurals when they got stuck, rather than find another way around it with a tricky word.

It might happen a bit, but not every word has a plural, and that still leaves something by some one more imaginative to happen next, we could have separate threads for five and six letter words. What do you think Bipbop? It was your idea, Meanwhile

knob

In the game show, no letters could be added or subtracted. Additionally, 'knot' cannot be changed to 'knob' because it is the last letter that has been changed.

'knot' could be changed to 'snot'. (tee hee immaturely funny!!)

shot.

I realise this just makes it harder for the next poster to avoid cusswords
