haha, please feel free to ask questions! Since this is the first time we are hosting this game, the questions will only help iron out the kinks :)

Is it too late for me to join?

Rushali Gupta (happy_soul) | 5 comments I am just curious..Why do we have to choose nouns and then a final noun? Is it to make this game and reading experience interesting or is it a part of some evaluation for choosing the winner?

The initial pick of 5 is to narrow down the possibilities for the final pick. If you have played a game of cards where you are dealt an initial hand and then pick the "best-fit" for each round, this is similar to that. The 5 nouns are your initial round. When the adjective is announced you pick the best fit (in your opinion of course!)

The mods will pick a winner, and I think we have enough participants for a runner up, every week based on what we thought was the best fit. There is really no criteria to win - I can honestly say each of the mods will probably have a different evaluation (silliest or funniest or most sensible or whatever). So, we encourage you not to overthink your picks, to be creative and have fun!

Well, maybe I can't keep up. Life gets more hectic now. But I may as well give it a try.
Thanks
