YT2095 Posted August 4, 2005 Posted August 4, 2005 a Chemist friend of mine used to assign his pupils the task of making up words using the symbols from a periodic table, we`ve sat for ages playing this between us over a beer or 7, I thought I`de share some of the fun the task is to either A: make the largest word you can with them, or B: make the longest coherant sentence using them. this then can be split into 2 parts, 1: you can use the same symbol twice, or 2: you can only use them once! enjoy oh yeah, so far my best is "FrAcTiONAl" and "CrYSTaLiNe"
YT2095 Posted August 5, 2005 Author Posted August 5, 2005 what`s up with everyone, it isn`t TOO difficult is it? here`s another I came up with: "I Am At TeNTh PoSiTiON In LiNe" also there`s "LaSEr BeAm" and "LaDy" as well as "BaCON" see? Not so hard afterall
Kyrisch Posted August 5, 2005 Posted August 5, 2005 "CaN ThOU BeAr ThAt BaRb In ThY BaCK?" Longest sentence I found so far
YT2095 Posted August 9, 2005 Author Posted August 9, 2005 Wow, well done you pair, I`m Impressed! in response to: "CaN ThOU BeAr ThAt BaRb In ThY BaCK?" NO PaIn NO GaIn

YT2095 Posted August 9, 2005 Author Posted August 9, 2005 Lance you could at LEAST have posted that as a Spoiler! it`s hardly sporting or in the sense of fair play is it!?

ciderminx Posted August 16, 2005 Posted August 16, 2005 how about 'CaN I LiCK YOURe MoLuSC FORe YOU?' Not technically the correct grammer or spelling, but hey, it made me look a bit busy!
TheAmazingBabyD Posted October 16, 2008 Posted October 16, 2008 this is the longest I can come up with: DySFUNCTiONAl
Gilded Posted October 18, 2008 Posted October 18, 2008 MoTiVAtIONaL... that's one letter shorter though. Aha, now I remembered "-PHoBiAc". How about ORnIThOPHoBiAc? Meaning someone who's afraid of birds.
BrianJonsson Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 That is a super fun way to play scrabble. This forum is full of fun stuff to play with. I have found another place that's cool too. Have you guys ever tried playing brain games? Not as challenging as a few of the problems here but I have read studies that place like that and this forum are good for keeping your brain fit.
