I'm not sure if I've been pissing you off, Joe, but I'm not trying to. The concept is interesting and it would have been nice to see it work on a thread but it didn't. Still I believe you had extended sessions where it went a surprsing number of rounds. I'm not saying you were just drunk or stoned and it wasn't working. All I'm doing after thinking on this (and to phrase it in a perhaps less obnoxious way), is conjecturing that extended successful rounds may be related to the group being subconciously attuned to a pattern. If someone is far away from the group mindset, the hidden words they dream up, and the huge source of material(definitions, characterizations, or synonyms) to choose clues from would probably knock the game out earlier.
