The rules are as follows:
- Add only one adjective at a time only
- No double-posting
- Modified picture is a must,
- no covering up of previous additions (though they can be moved around to make space).
- Keep to the rhyming pattern!
- If the thread goes dead for more than a week, the winner is the last person to take a legal turn
- After a winner is declared, the game starts again as soon as someone proposes a new image and a (1) new word
To better understand the "rhyming pattern" rule, have a look at the example: note the "Magnum" is an illegal move in Game #1, and "Ensemble" is illegal in Game #2. However rules are made to be broken, provided that the effect is suitably comedic (cf - "Orson").
In Game #1 the pattern was "OSM", meaning that "ASM", "ISM", "ESM" or "USM" would have been acceptable. The original Seuss tirade can be found here - the pattern was in "EETLE", and moved over to "UDLE", "ADLE", "ATTLE" and finally "OODLE". I'm not enough of a linguistic to explain how this work exactly, but you get the general idea: consonants are fixed (except for things like Ds and Ts which sound similar), and vowels can be altered.
