I want this to be liberally interpreted - I'm swapping the space at the start of the word with the letter at the end. But anyway,

lips -> hips

***Rían*** · 11-01-2005, 02:10 AM

yeah, that third rule ("swap two letters (ear - era)") needs some more defining. Do they have to be next to one another?

hips --> hits

(or hips --> ship, if we allow Count's variation)

Count Comfect · 11-01-2005, 02:56 AM

We'll leave that to developing practice

I think it is already established that they don't need to be next to each other, by previous use

hits -> hit

that's what I thought you were trying to do, but I don't consider an empty space a letter.

hit --> hot

Being picky then, aren't we?

hot -> shot

shores -> sores

***Rían*** · 11-01-2005, 06:27 PM

("shote"? I thought it was "shoat"!)
*looks it up*
oh, ok, a variant spelling.

probably one of those crazy Brit things ...

sores --> stores

*goes shopping*
