YT2095 Posted August 4, 2005 Share 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" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YT2095 Posted August 5, 2005 Author Share 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?

Gilded Posted October 18, 2008 Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianJonsson Posted December 16, 2008 Share 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.
