Word Games
It’s PokeCommunity’s 10th anniversary and we’re celebrating in this thread with some fun word games. What games are they, you ask. We have crosswords. We have word searches. We have something new and different to further test your word skills and Pokemon knowledge. Anyone can play, so get your pencils ready! The Games Every day of the Get-Together we will be posting a new puzzle for you to solve. You simply follow the instructions for each puzzle and send us your answers via PM to both vaporeon7 and Scarf. Once you’ve sent in your answers post in this thread to let us know that you did (in case we somehow don’t get your PMs) and let everyone know how much fun you had. (You don’t actually have to say how much fun you had.) Some of the games (like the word search) will need you to send us an image. You'll need to use an image hosting site like TinyPic, ImageShack, Photobucket, or whatever other method you have available, so familiarize yourself with uploading images if you haven't already. How To Play Like we said, there are three types of games you can play: crossword, word search, and a word pairing game (details below). For each of the games there are a couple of general rules: Crosswords A crossword puzzle asks you to fill out a chart using the clues as your guide.
Word Search A word search asks you to find a group of words hidden in the puzzle.
Word Pairing A word pairing game asks you to find what two Pokémon both fit the word clue.
You can submit your answers one at a time, or all at once. Timeline The first puzzle starts on Day 1 of PSX and a new puzzle will be posted each day after. Day 1, Sept 24th: An easy-difficulty crossword challenge Day 2, Sept 25th: An easy-difficulty word search challenge Day 3, Sept 26th: An easy-difficulty word pairing challenge Day 4, Sept 27th: A medium-difficulty crossword challenge Day 5, Sept 28th: A medium-difficulty word search challenge Day 6, Sept 29th: A medium-difficulty word pairing challenge Day 7, Sept 30th: One hard-difficult challenge of each type of puzzle You can submit your answers any time up through to October 7th.

Finished and sent it to you both! Must say, it was a lot of fun and the Cherrim was adorable! Some of the clues took a while (especially annoyingly vague ones like "17. Fully evolved Pokémon owned by in-game rival." xD) but it wasn't too bad - can't wait for tomorrow's puzzle :D
|
Finished up the crossword today. I'm going to hold off on sending it in so I can send them all at once when I'm done. Looking forward to the word pairing challenges!
EDIT: Finished Day 2's Word Search. Much less time consuming than yesterday! EDIT: Finished Day 3's Pokemon Pairing. 2 had me stumped for a few seconds, but overall not too hard. EDIT: Finished Day 4's Crossword. Took longer than the first one, but almost found it easier. Wonder what day 7's crossword will be like. |
That was a pretty tough crossword, can't imagine what the hard difficulty one is going to be ^.^
|
I finally finished the crossword! If that was supposed to be easy, I'm afraid of the hard ones. xD
It was a lot of fun though. ;D |
Aaaaand now I'm done with the crossword! Can't say it was an easy one, though I still enjoyed it nonetheless. Let's hope tomorrow's puzzle will be just as fun! :)
|
First puzzle finished and sent! :)
|
Already a good turn out. :D I've got answers from everyone who's posted so far except for Brendino and Pixelrush. Pixelrush, if you're waiting like Brendino that's fine, but if you're not, I didn't get your answers.
I hope you'll enjoy the next couple we've got coming up. |
Puzzle 1 is done and sent. Puzzle 2 I'm on it.
EDIT: Puzzle 2 Complete. |
Day 2, finished! I love word searches and that was a pretty fun one, too easy though ;) Can't wait for the ones later in the week :D I just hope I get time to do the weekend ones whilst moving in to uni haha. Also I've never done one of those word pairing games so looking forward to trying that :D
|
The word search was easy and fun while the crossword was hard with some of the vague questions. I am looking forward to the rest except the hard crossword, mission :P
|
Submitted my answers for Day 2. :)
|
Word Search is finished and half of the crossword is finished. I'll sent all of them together :)
|
That was pretty fun! Nice "cooldown" day after that tough crossword.
|
Challenge Accepted
Puzzle1: pending Puzzle2: done! |
Okay, I've sent my two Puzzles! They are both finished.
|
Sent in my first puzzle, working on the 2nd :)
|
Yay, more people joining!
Oh, and for your information, if you find you've submitted a mistake and want to resubmit your answers that's fine, but please still check your answers before you send them. Someone has already fallen prey to one of our sneaky tricks. >:D |
Dang, I thought I checked my answers. Time to recheck them all.
|
Finished puzzle #2. Bring on the next one!
|
Sended the Puzzle 1 and Puzzle 2.
|
Going to complete all and send them in one PM to make it easier. :)
|
Day 3's stuff is up everyone.
Curious, that is probably a good idea, less cluttering of PMs then. |
Sended the Puzzle 3- Word Pairing. It was very easy.
|
Finished Puzzle 3 and PM'd.
|
