Guess the Word Game!

[JALB]

How to Play

1. Someone thinks of a word,(Don't say what the word is.)

2. then posts the first letter of the word.

3. Everyone else tries to guess the word,

4. and if everyone wants to know the next letter, the person who thought of the word posts the next letter,

5. until someone gets the word right. Then it's their turn.

Whoever looks at this thread first, he or she can go first.
