Is there a word in play? I can't find one post Mountweazel.

Furthermore, I propose that, after all these years, we give the game a name of its own. Piffle's my sugestion.

There's no word in play at the moment - would you like to suggest one? As to the name, I thought it was generally known as "Fictionary".

On looking at my usual first port of call on the Web in such cases, Wikipedia, it does seem that Fictionary has a strong claim. There has, however, been an online version of the game called Dixonary since 1989, originally on CompServe. It used to run in the TAPCIS forum; TapCIS was an offline reader for CompuServe forums, and I remember using it in the early 90s myself. Those were the days, my friends! Wink Cool

And what, may I ask, is wrong with the Bluffing Game? I like it!

I'll come up with a word and do the next game.

OK, Kalleh, I'll hold mine until you do yours.

As for the Dixonary variant, they have too many arcane rules to suit me.
