What a nice idea, my very good friend.

There are many many rules, and game founder "Rome" (Don) listed them in the very first post of this thread which has more than 58000 replies now, I am the top poster in the thread with more than 7200 posts.

Anyway - the basic rule is simple. I start a sentence and the next poster carries on with the last word of this sentence. Only one sentence. A period, an exclamation mark or a question mark ends a sentence. Let us keep the game more simple here. Just one more rule: If there is more than one post within 3 minutes, starting with the same word, the last word of the last post counts.

And just one more thing: "You Get The Last Word" is a game that really suffers from trolling instantly - so if you like to participate, please follow the rules strictly.

Okay, let's start with three examples:

Weekend without AK will be not easy for a bunch of AK addicts.

Addicts need professional aid.

DNU

DNU means "Do not use as last word" and this is a tool in order to post remarks without disturbing the flow of the game. Carry on now with the last word "Aid".

According to this post, I would answer yes. I am unclear about the quotation mark ending a sentence though. A question mark would make more sense.

I thought so, but complete sentences appear to be as great a challenge to some as using spell-check.

While HK used "sentences" in his explanation, on AK that's is not how it's been happening. I don't remember if Ty started that thread stating the use of a complete actual "sentence".

It has been going on at AK with the use of...

Ouotes
Phrases
Names
Statements
& Sentences

The important thing that seems to be challenging the intellect of this site.

Start your comment with the last word used in the prior post.

D-Ray it's supposed to be a fun game, not a technical literary endeavor.

Babel was famous for the building of a tower.

DNU

Generally whole sentences. Sometimes two words are okay, when they make sense. For instance, if the last word is "bad", I may carry on with "Bad company!"

The sense of this game is nothing else but entertainment. The challenge is to be as far as possible witty, funny, "punny"- you know what I mean. The late AK member Peter Bogle replied with countless ad hoc limericks, this was absolutely priceless. May he rest in peace.
