    Exclamation Re: <Game> Stymied Sentences version 1 (approved by Lady Vulpix)

    I think insisting with this grind is mildly tiring, still I did it fittingly.

    Why did it have to be exactly 14 words?

    Oops! I assure you I had written them down, but then I tried to type the whole sentence by heart and in a rush, and that was the result. I've fixed it now, so you can see what the real sentence was meant to be.

    Next challenge: write a sentence of at least 7 words where each word has exactly 3 letters.

    I'll make you a deal for free if you can get the lead out of this coral reef, but you have to clean it before the fish die from this toxic thing.

    Next challenge: Write a sentence of words only using an odd number of letters, without the middle letter of any word being the same middle letter of another word. You must have at least one letter word, one three letter word, one five letter word, one seven letter word, one nine letter word, one eleven letter word, and one thirteen letter word.

    OK, I want to try:

    You are a loved, cherished, but permanently brokenhearted angelic darling.


    Next challenge: Write a sentence using at least three usernames from TPM members. However, the names must have more than one word (a compound word can be used too), and they will not be used as a name:

    Example: The song of the wolf brought a link on a divine chaos, leading to a missing world where all is perfect.

    Usernames used: Wolfsong, DivineAll, The_Missing_Link, Perfect Chaos.

    The darkest part of the basement has no light, with rumours that there are wandering spirits down there, it would be a tough job for me to exterminate them, but believe me, I have the suspicion that these ghosts did something crazy to that poor boy who they tricked into believing he could become an elf and work for Santa Claus.

    Next challenge: Write a sentence that has none of the following letters: R, S, T, L, N, E (cookie to whoever gets this and can guess the reference I'm making here)

    This is easy, I can do it with one hand, as I have just done.
    ------------------
    It becomes much harder if you make it so that no letters can be repeated in the whole sentence. Let that be the next challenge. At least 5 words, please.

    Would this intriguing thing look difficult if I did it only with my own words?

    This post has been edited because Kyle ninja'd me.

    For Magmar's challenge:
    "I did this without thinking too much, now I soup it up, improvising words, to find out how much it will grow; not too much, I know: this is it, but I did it."

    ^Thirty four words.

    For Kyle's challenge:
    "Brave foxes looked quizzically at jumping whales." (Only 7 words!)

    Next challenge: write a sentence in which at least 3 different words have only letters whose capitalized forms are still letters when turned upside down (for example, W and M turn into each other, while C remains itself - those three and a few others are valid).

    Gabi: The fake name "Roy G. Biv" is a mnemonic device used by many school-age children in the U.S. to remember the colors of the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.

    Now for the challenge:

    Next challenge: Write a sentence containing at least eight brand names that, in context, are not used as proper nouns. (For example, "Hello, kitty!" is an acceptable form of Hello Kitty.)

    After a smart start to the day of looking at the mountain dew on the apple tree and watching the ocean spray in the sky, you sometimes must stop and shop at a five star market, visit the post office, and let out a few snickers at an amusing conversation.

    For those that miss them (I know some are obvious but I wanted to list them all):
    1. Smart Start - cereal type
    2. Mountain Dew - soda type
    3. Apple - computer company
    4. Ocean Spray - drink brand
    5. Stop and Shop - grocery store
    6. Star Market - grocery store
    7. Post - cereal company
    8. Snickers - candy type

    Now to see if I can top the crazy challenges that I've seen while reading this…

    Challenge: Write a sentence or two entirely of odd-lettered words where the MIDDLE letter of each word must follow the alphabet, A-Z, and without using single-letter words.

    Alright, with the new rule I've set in (see the first post, guys), I'm going to post a new challenge, just so that we can get this game going again.

    New Challenge: Write a sentence containing at least 4 words that have a consecutive number of syllables (e.g. if the first word in question has one syllable, the next word should have two syllables, then three, then four, and so on).

    Accessibility becomes exceedingly problematical when confronting such exceptionally challenging predicaments.

    It was fun, though. Now try to write a sentence of at least 8 words where each word is longer than the previous one.

    I decided to object to the intimate subject by shedding a tear.

    Construct an eight word sentence in which the first word has one letter, the second word has two letters, the third word has three letters, and so on.

    Lots on sale are real cheap, but not large.

    Next challenge: Write a sentence with at least two words that you can spell while going from one letter to another adjacent letter near it according to the keyboard (e.g. sawed). You can repeat a letter in one of those required words, but only by going to another adjacent letter and coming back.

    Well, I have a slight feeling the last challenge may have caused some thinker's or writer's block, so I might as well come up with a new challenge.

    Write a sentence of at least 100 words. None of the words may rhyme with any other words, and you must use all 26 letters at least once.

    Can we let this one slide so the game can go on?

    One January in the middle of nowhere, seven foxes hustled laboriously quick, zipping forward.

    Next Challenge: Write a 100 word paragraph without the letters R, T, G or E.

    Only if we can let yours slide, Magmar.

    Well, seeing that my last one was too hard (my bad), I'll try another one for you guys to attempt.

    Write a sentence 25-40 words long with at least 7 words each containing a different set of double letters (e.g. fool, addition, channel).

    There are jerk-offs who think safety goggles are for sissies, but really, who wants a shuttlecock, pebble or a big glob of some corrosive substance in their eye?

    New challenge: Write a ten-word sentence only using the Wheel of Fortune letters (R, S, T, L, N and E).

    Yeah... I know I doesn't make a lot of sense, but what can you do?

    Alright, I think this game could use some new life.

    New challenge: Write a 50 word sentence with at least one group of 3 or more words that can be chained (if possible, please show your chain by using bold or italics so that it can be easily spotted).

    "Today I made a post during tea time out of this forum, more precisely on a message board which is called the Clockwork Mansion, but then again that is a common occurrence, since I drink tea nearly all the time and thus any time can be tea time for me."

    I hope I got that right. If so...

    The next challenge is to write a sentence with at least 2 words which are formed by the juxtaposition of shorter words (for example piglet or island). The words I used as examples don't count, and nor do words that were intentionally formed by combining other words (for example, words like wristband and football don't count).

    Annual Unown Awards: Kind (2007), Friendly, Queen (2008), Dedicated (2009), She found Kevin! (2009),
    Everyone wins (2011), Tea, World traveler (2012), Busy, Patient (2013),
    Durga, Firefox, Twenty Thousand Hidden Posts (2014), Helpful (2015),
    Active, Discord, Letter, Unown Awards 2019 (2019).

    You mean like compound words?


    This sentence is the longest sentence, long to the point that a normal English teacher would step in and be a troll and put periods in almost unnecessary places.

    Next challenge - Make this sentence more concise so that it has no more than 14 words in it. It must still communicate all the relevant information:

    Bothered by allergies, a condition that made them sneeze, some of the preschool children had sinus troubles that caused them to miss several days in nursery school this spring.
