Challenge: try to use as many unusual words as you can. At least try to avoid words you hear every day like "hair", "its", and "bite". Again, avoid repetition as much as possible. I may start giving out points for use of good words. And extra credit for using LotR references-- no specific people or place names, but things or terms are ok. So, points to Hector for "Cram" though I'm not sure if he meant it in LotR context... |
