I just wanted to point out that we are starting to repeat ourselves.  For example, I put Humbert Allen Astredo under "H" (most of the names listed have been under the first letter of the first name) and someone else has put Humbert Allen Astredo under "A".   This has happened in a few places.

I think part of the game is to know what has been posted prior to a new post - that is why Midnight keeps updating the list and posting it for us to see.  Ultimately it should get more challenging as we get further along...

Any need for rules here? or do we just wing it?  just curious...

As long as the name or word hasn't been repeated for the same letter, I've seen no problem with it.

What you're referring to first occurred in the 2nd round and a list wasn't posted with those answers until the 5th.

I is for Inbred - Julia once referred to the collinses that way, and that was certainly Joshua's initial intention, marrying Millicent to Jeremiah! :)

Anyone else think we should release a book with this in it?

I don't know about a book, but if this keeps on going the way it has (which is great, BTW - when the topic started I never thought it would go on for more than a few rounds because I thought we'd run out of things to use), the game is going to need its own board!  :D

O is for Out of the Ordinary, commonplace for the show itself as well as many of the events within!
