The Transforming Word
 
I've looked around this forum, and I don't think I've seen a game like this one, so here goes.

In this game, we'll start with a word. Then, each poster will change the current word into a new one (non-proper nouns) by doing one of five moves:
  • Adding a letter
  • Removing a letter
  • Changing a letter
  • Moving a letter
  • Swapping two letters
For example:

Adding a letter
Example:
sing > singe


Removing a letter
Example:
singe > sine


Changing a letter
Example:
sine > side


Moving a letter
Example:
side > ides


Swapping two letters
Example:
ides > dies


If the word has six or more letters to begin with, you can do two moves. In that case, it doesn't have to be a real word after the first move. For example:

Example:
simple > simle > slime


Of course, you can always just stick to one move if you want.

Try not to reverse the previous poster's move(s) unless you're absolutely stuck. Also, remember to follow the 4-word/25-character rule.

To start off, let's begin with this word:

Enjoy! ^-^

Word < Ward


yay I made a new word I hope it isnt difficult

gimmepie September 25th, 2013 12:12 AM

Ward - Wart

I changed the d to a t. A wart is a growth on the skin.

alisaie September 25th, 2013 5:55 AM

Wart -> Part

W to a P. I think we all know what a part is. :)

Overlord Drakow September 25th, 2013 6:04 AM

Fart.

P to F. FART FART FART FART FART!

waveguidebuizel September 25th, 2013 4:11 PM

Swapping the r and the f changes that fart into a raft, that thing you can ride on the water.

Karasuma September 25th, 2013 8:16 PM

Raft -> Daft

Did I do it right? lol I was listening to Daft Punk so 'Daft' came into mind.

waveguidebuizel September 26th, 2013 10:44 AM

Yep, that's right. Changing the a into an e gives deft, as in skillful.

daft > deft

Esper September 26th, 2013 10:59 AM

Deft - Left

Not much else you could do with that word I'm afraid.

Squirrel September 26th, 2013 11:02 AM

If you add a 'c' to the front you get cleft, an opening/split.

waveguidebuizel September 26th, 2013 12:50 PM

Getting tricky. Let's pluralize it by adding an s to the end: clefts. Six letters!

Victreebel's Bro September 26th, 2013 1:07 PM

Let's remove that t, shall we?
Clefs

I believe it has something to do with music

«Chuckles» September 27th, 2013 12:14 AM

Clefs-Chefs

a person who orders everyone around in a kitchen

alisaie September 27th, 2013 6:19 AM

Taking away that 's' so we can have just one Chef in the kitchen!

waveguidebuizel September 27th, 2013 10:52 AM

That chef has to taste the food made, so turning that "f" into a "w" lets the chef chew.

Hufen iâ September 27th, 2013 3:40 PM

Change the "C" in Chew to "S" for Stew.

xseed September 27th, 2013 4:26 PM

Adding a letter
Removing a letter
Changing a letter
Moving a letter
Swapping two letters

«Chuckles» September 27th, 2013 9:40 PM

adding an O also the poster above xseed added 2 letters he made one of the letters t :\

Stoop, how could you stoop so low

pompayyy September 28th, 2013 12:14 PM

I'm taking away the T and replacing it with a L. So Sloop. ♪We come on the "Sloop" John B...

Shizzable September 28th, 2013 1:29 PM

I'm removing an "o" to make it Slop.

waveguidebuizel October 5th, 2013 11:08 AM

Gonna add an "e" at the end to turn that mess into a slope.

Akromaric October 5th, 2013 11:17 AM

Changing the "l" into the "c" so it's scope.

pompayyy October 5th, 2013 12:18 PM

Taking away the "c" so it's sope: a Mexican dish

Crunch Punch October 5th, 2013 1:00 PM

Changing the s to p to make pope.

«Chuckles» October 7th, 2013 2:15 AM

Taking away the e to make the word pop as in "I like to pop ballons!"
