This is to Word Disassociation as Baker Street is to Mornington Crescent. Allowed moves are: 1. Carrot; 2. Grapefruit; 3. Bottom. Some variants may be permitted. Brought to you by Bob the dog's daughter.
And so it begins...
rab - Opening with
Carrot.
Kim - Hmmm, interesting. Think I'll try....
Grapefruit
LotUS -
Carrot, of course.
Uncle Korky - You don't make this easy for novices, do you? Erm...
Bottom
ImNotJohn - You don't fool me that easily.
Grapefruit
rab - To which a
Carrot is the only response.
Software -
Bottom wrap
Carrot . (Is this the right idea?)
ImNotJohn - No! It's
Grapefruit juice bleach
carrot, bottom sit on
grapefruit, carrot plug
bottom
Bob the dog - This has to be the hardest game I've ever played online. I'll opt for
Carrot.
rab - Somehow at the e-pilg last night we managed to work some tube stations in, but I can't remember what the conditions for that were so
Bottom it is.
Dunx - This looks far too difficult for my little brain. I think I'll just observe...
Tuj - Dunx] I'll join you, if you'll move your
Bottom up a bit... oops, looks like I'm in now. What's the winning move?
Chalky - Oh all right then - variations it is ....
Cockbottom [blatantly purloining PJ's idea]
JLE - Forcing a bifurcation to
Carrot / Bottom
Inkspot - Bifurcations are never the best place to start
Carrot / Botfruit
Herr Bratsche - Boardman's bifurcation -
Bottom Rot/Grape Bottom. Yeeeeuuchh.
LotUS -
Carbot/Tom trying to route the bifurcation to safer waters
Chalky - steering it right back into sillyland with
Tooting Broadbottom/Tooting Fruit
ImNotJohn - Teetering on the edge of absurdity -
Swiss Carrot / Grape Portland Street
Boolbar - I'll bring it back together with
Elephant & Carrot.
Bottom's up!

Word Disassociation part.
LotUS -
Carrot Crennellations [Boolbar] Satisfied?
Bob the dog - I think I'm getting the hang of this now. Getting in there with a straight
Carrot.
Boolbar - [Btd] I can see why Esme is the acclaimed expert on this game. The last time I saw a move that good is when I witnessed Mrs. Trellis' bottom squashing Broskeys's carrot at the 1997 WD international championships.
nights - [Boolbar] NO! DIRTY! STOP IT!
CARROT!
JLE - Given that Mrs Trellis was 87 at the time, I doubt there was anything dirty about it... the fact of the matter is that Broskeys does, in fact, have a pet rabbit, which he brings with him to championships "for luck". And of course it gets hungry sometimes, hence the presence of a carrot - which, if absent-mindedly left behind on an unattended chair, could easily be sat on... So,
Bottom.
Inkspot -
Boom invoking
Short Word Search option.
rab - Going German,
Otto.

Carrot
Tuj -
Bottom Is there a winning move, or was someone messing around pretending to be the audience back there?
