Iolite

[ You are in a dirt-walled storeroom filled with burlap sacks. It smells like apples. The sacks are, in fact, filled with apples of all colors, if you open them. The walls are strung with something like Christmas lights, if Christmas lights were shaped like apples.

In the center of the room is a low table with a handful of pens, a stack of red slips of paper, and a stack of green slips of paper. There are also thirteen envelopes -- one labeled To Start, and the rest labeled:

1. Amethyst
2. Carnelian
3. Citrine
4. Coral
5. Emerald
6. Iolite
7. Kunzite
8. Peridot
9. Ruby
10. Sapphire
11. Tiger's Eye
12. Turquoise ]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Black writing inks itself under the words To Start on the first envelope. It reads:

Instructions:

On each of the twenty red cards, write one noun, and a definition of the word.

(A noun is a person, place, or thing.)

On each of the three green cards, write one adjective, and a definition of the word.

(An adjective is a describing word that gives more information about a noun.)

When you are finished, place all the cards in this envelope.

[[ You have until 8:50 to turn twenty nouns and three adjectives, plus descriptions. Please submit them in the format WORD: Definition. ]]

...

Vocabulary! This will be simple.

Seven noun cards appear at the edge of the table, and writing appears in shining gold around the dark walls of the room:

There will be twelve rounds of game play. Each team will judge a round, in order.

To start every round, an adjective will appear underneath a team name. You put the noun card you think the judging team will like the most in the envelope to be submitted anonymously. The judging team will choose the winning card, and the team that played the winning card will earn a point.

The teams with the most points will win the game.

[[ Every round, I will post the ROUND'S ADJECTIVE and a link to the SUBMISSION POST for that round. The submission post comments will all be screened. In an unscreened comment, I will post all of the submissions, and the judging team will choose a winner. ]]

ROUND ONE, AMETHYST, ANNOYING

second round word is shiny http://dramatispersonae.dreamwidth.org/236873.html

[[ Your playable nouns will be kept here. You will start with seven -- each with its own comment -- and after every round that you play a noun (which is every round that you aren't judging) you'll be dealt another noun.

When you use up a noun card in a round/adjective/team post, please comment under with with the team/round you used it on, ie "amethyst/round one" so we can keep track of which cards are out of play. ]]
