Each Move Must Consist Of Precisely Eight Words
help
Just as it says on the tin. What happens in the game may be debated in the game: perhaps it'll be a conversation, perhaps a word-limited reprise of various games we play, or whatever.

That should be " . . . bit motoris bi". (Genitive case).
Does "Aquitaine" actually rhyme with the word "queen"?
No, but Software's French is good, unless pissed.
One decided to invoke plummy British Royal pronunciation.
I do not find this explanation wholly convincing.
How about: "...France and England queen she became"?
Better - but does 'became' actually rhyme with 'Aquitaine' :-)
Methane rhymes with Aquitaine. It's a gas, though.
Methane, ethane, propane, butane - they're all rhyming gases.
Shall we continue where we left off, chaps?
How many more rhyming gasses can you supply?
Fluorine, chlorine, phosphine, arsine, acetylene, ethylene, propylene, allene. You shouldn't have asked. :-)
Can you name eight gases rhyming with "oxygen"?
[Rosie] Why not? I'm beguiled and delighted. Thanks.
I think naming gasses is far too elementary.
One only comes up with such puns periodically.
I am such a Francophile; I say "a-kee-ten".
Actually, I think "a-kee-ten", but say "a-kwee-tain" aloud.
I'm such a chemist I say "A ketone".
(Quendalon) Hydrogen, nitrogen, cyanogen is all there are.
I wonder if there were any Aquitainaise chemists?
Yes, they stick dipropylene glycol in the wines. Allegedly.
But surely Rosie's last post contains nine words?
That was a mightily bold statement young Darren.
If Rosie's wasn't nine then this contains nought.
Or does it have to be italicised also?
Seems I've caused a bit of a shemozzle.
Can we have a ruling on italics usage?
Perhaps we need a ruling on fonts too?
And let's not forget coloured words as well.
How long did that take you to type?
I'm not sure how that might be relevant.
Who are people appealing to for rulings though?
I am always glad to issue a ruling.
What? Did somebody ask me something just then?
You have spelt your own name wrong. Imposter!
That guy never claimed he was Humphrey Lyttelton.
The poster also never claimed he was male.
Furthermore, I have never claimed I am female.
Plenty of other people have done so, though.
Many people think that Chalky is a man.
Some must think you're just ones and noughts.
Wired ran a challenge. Can we match it?
Yes. Needs a separate game. Perhaps eight words?
I'm rather bored, who's up for some ping-pong?
*grabs bat, throws ball up... down, serves* ping!
Pong! This homophone deserves greater exploitation, I feel.
Ping also has certain atributes for Unix® enthusiasts.
Pong was a game. Before my time alas.
I feel sure you must have experienced pongs.
As an industrial chemist I experienced them professionally.
As an effluent analyst, I experienced some too.
You are clearly a woman of many parts.
Rosie, the things I did you wouldn't believe
Maybe you could try to test our credulity.
Ping, Pang and Pong are characters in Turandot.
So, guess who got laid last night then?
How many guesses are we allowed to have?
nights is merely telling us he's a carpet.
People have told me that all my life.
I shouldn't stand for that. Trip them up.
Glad we resisted jokes about "shag" and "piles."
We have done so far. Melvyns and Chalfonts.
I'm off to Paris today. See you Sunday.
'Ave a wondairful 'oleeday chère jhoosteen. À bientôt.
Pen, I hope that you aren't going alone.
Still on the pull at your age? Disgraceful!
I think Rosie has started talking to himself.
"Started", he witters. So little does he know.
