    Only two left to come. So far there's been a bit of diversity?5 different meanings have taken at least a guess. Very interesting to watch, sitting here with the controls. :p






    For the future...
    :D

    are you sure connidation is a real word?

    I think I will put more effort in next round...
    I choose:

    1. An implied associated or secondary meaning of a word or expression in addition to its explicit or primary meaning, that is used with the intent to imply a meaning that is not actually meant. Example: "James tricked me into thinking that he meant that he was going home, when really he was dying! I can't believe he used connidation!"

    1. TheBoogieMan: An implied associated or secondary meaning of a word or expression in addition to its explicit or primary meaning, that is used with the intent to imply a meaning that is not actually meant. Example: "James tricked me into thinking that he meant that he was going home, when really he was dying! I can't believe he used connidation!" - (Rebel_Padawan)
    2. neeldawg66: A surgical operation or procedure, in which breast implants are removed.
    3. KissMeImARebel: A written account of words spoken in a meeting or conference.
    4. Rebel_Padawan: Connidation is defined as a misleading of character. To falsely lead a wrong suggestion without personally recognising the mis-information.
    5. Kyptastic: Something that alludes to another object or person.
    6. JediVegeta: The act of condoning a murder committed by a religious figure, ie: the Pope. - (Kyptastic) - (KissMeImARebel)

    8. Grand_Admiral_Grant: The art of including a secret message in a normal looking text, symbol or artwork which appears to be harmless but has a hidden meaning or message to those also involved in a plot. - (TheBoogieMan)
    9. REAL: The thought of starting something new. - (Grand_Admiral_Grant)
    10. Rogue1-and-a-half: The transfer of water molecules through the process of heat transference. - (Zebra3) - (neeldawg66)
    11. Zebra3: To share similar opinions with a person or persons. To be in agreement. - (JediVegeta) - (Rogue1-and-a-half) - (DarthBabe)

    Those who didn't guess:
    No one. Everyone participated.

    Congratulations Grand_Admiral_Grant, you were the only one to guess the real definition this round. Also well done to Zebra3, for she was unparalleled in receiving the highest number of guesses.

    All in all, a very intriguing first round. Six different meanings took points, and I'm sure many people learned some tricks.

    [i]The next word will be posted at approximately 10/28 12 a.m. boardtime. Which gives approximately a 39 hour break until that time. As you can see, each round will last for 4 days. The break-up of the timing is affected by how quickly players contribute, but there is always a benchmark or cutoff to work from.[/i]






    Fascinating round. I give everyone permission to be outraged at everyone else for not guesses their meaning. :p I'm actually quite annoyed at Grant... I was so close. :(

    ;)

    I just realised that there is actually a 49 hour limit to this definition round because of daylight savings. Hehe.
