But your posts didn't follow the rule, Jamesdenem!

Or did I not understand the rule?

Which one(s) in particular did not follow the rule? They seem to be fine to me.

At the top of this page: here

The first three words arn't the same!

Wasn't that the rule that the first three words had to be the same?

This is the rule. The trick is that my previous post is on the last page, so it isn't apparent

The rules are in the very first post of this thread.

There's nothing about a post limit, other than that you're not allowed to guess the actual rule twice in a row without someone else attempting to guess it in between.

There is this rule however:

4. Each entry must have at least three words in it that differ when compared to any of the preceding entries in the game.

So that should have disqualified all three of your guesses.

Can an entry of 2 words be said to have at least three words in it that are different from previous entries?

I think that rule is more focused on the same person posting in quick succession.

I wondered about that, but the rule does state that someone else must make a guess rather than just an entry before an incorrect guesser is allowed to guess again. That could well take many days; people make entries all the time, but actual guesses are much rarer.

The invisible rule is that an entry must contain at least one word of 3 or more syllables.
