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.

[Kiely] Please re-submit your posts with more words
That is rather ladylike but it may work.
Highly restrained,Pen, in my own humble opinion.
Why do people think this is live chat?
coz there saddos who nevr go out yeah
Well we are alive and chatting, so it is.
Did I detect an extra word just then?
Yes, that is true. I cannot count. Bollocks.
[Insert joke about doctor who cannot count bollocks.]
Attention Lib: "Testes, testes. One, Two, One, Two."
Counting was not part of my medical degree.
Nor ENT, dermatology, anatomy. I make it up.
You should have some ability at jazz, then.
Jazz, perhaps, but life is random and chaotic!
I hope that's not true of medical procedures.
I have an exam tomorrow and feel very sick.
That is quite obvious from your extra word.
Oh, sigh. Not again. Life is tough.
I find averaging makes everything much much better.
We all hope you pass with flying colours.
Lib is still cheating, doubling up for sixteen.
So, Lib, was all the stress worth it?
It was horrible. Results out in a week.
My fingers are crossed, and it's not arthritis.
I'm bored. What shall we all do now?
We could all simultaneously shout "Points mean prizes!".
Points out that nobody has mentioned Christmas yet.
Points mean prizes! Points mean prizes! Join in!!
The first person to mention Christmas here loses.
Is it ok to mention the Holiday Season?
We haven't put the office decorations up yet.
Don't forget to do a Risk Assessment first.
Exam results are out. I failed. Sigh. Weep.
Oh that's too bad Lib. A bad fail?
Sorry pen. However I passed. I'm now MEng.
Obviously I meant commiserations to Lib not pen. :-0
Congrats, Softers. Was that recently? So what now?
No marks. Doing again April. Well done Softy!
Thanks Lib and pen. What next? Nothing really.
There's an unusually bright object in the sky.
I've seen it too. The temperature dropped today.
We has a touch of frost overnight here.
That's no excuse for yokel-like grammatical infelicities.
Have you caught my non counting bug, Rosie?
I think hyphenated words should count as two.
I'm away for Christmas; therefore may not post.
Merry Christmas to all; back for New Year.
I'm working Christmas nights so may post lots.
I'm fixing wireless for mummy, can I post?
She'll be able to hear the Light Programme.
But the 'Light Programme' no longer exists, Rosie.
Nor the word "wireless" as of old. Geddit?
It only worked for twenty minutes, f*ck it.
(pen) No, you f*ck it; I'll hold it.
I'm back. When's my turn to f*ck it?
Done mine, now when do I get paid?
It has gone very quiet here this year.
I have just booked myself a September holiday :o)
Something worthy, such as examining extinct Icelandic volcanoes?
I've booked a holiday in Cathar castle country
No, it's haymaking in Hertfordshire, for four days.
(pen) That sounds fun, whether literal or metaphorical.
I'm going to Salford to visit my son.
[Softers] Wave at Stockport. I'll wave back, probably.
Lib IS Stockport, a town with a personality.
Stockport certainly lacks personality, I have stolen it.
I'll wave at Stockport, should I recongize it.
It'll say "Stockport. Jumelée avec Fontainbleau" ou quelquechose.
En fait, il semble être jumelé avec Béziers
English now. Today I have bought a car.
Is it an English car or perhaps Japanese?
These days the distinction is not always clear.
Is it that Japanese cars have slitty eyes?
No, it's that they are made in Swindon.
This one is from Prague. Its a Skoda!
I discovered that "škoda" is Czech for "damage".
A Citroen is no better. It's a lemon.
Skoda cannot be Czech, far too many vowels.
It's only forty per cent vowelated! VW's zero.
Not in Welsh it isn't, indeed to goodness.
I'll be out of range next week - holiday :)
You're lucky. Where are you going Pen? Jealous!
Must have missed her already. That was quick.
Hopefully, she'll tell us all on her return.
Wild and windy Dorset, a cottage with friends
Is it now furnished with the Napoli booty?
Yep, all motorbikes and nappies. We ate catfood.
Pen? Nappies? We need a better explanation, please.
They were washed ashore from that stricken ship.
Is no-one talking here any more? Suit yourself.
There ain't nobody here but us chickens, pen.
And us chickens all have the avian flu.
Fear not. That is strictly for the birds.
I've got girl flu, variant of bird flu.
"Vet is fine!", reads slow news day headline
"Vet is bedder zan colt" says German mountaineer.
So 'man flu' is a completely different disease?
Shall I draw you a Venn diagram, pen?
That would be beyond my small, pink brain
You must have plenty of grey matter, though.
Yes Rosie, but I dye it brunette again.
You could highlight the cortex and hypothalamus, surely?
I didn't think L'Oréal was worth that much.
That is something of an insult, isn't it?
My last remark has killed things stone dead.
Maybe it was something that you said. Eh?
Anyone seen the Hogarth exhibition at Tate Britain?
Funny that you should mention that. Actually, no.
Привет друзья! Я чуствую что я не умный.
Nice one, Cyril, but could you decode it?
No, as it takes fifteen words in English.
Then enter two lines - plus an extra word.
But that's wrong and breaks the rules, softers.
There's only one rule; the eight word limit.
Not a word more, not a word less.
So no variations on that rule? No exceptions?
Game summary (up top) exceeds the word limit.
Tuj you are being a pedant. Please stop.
So, who led the Pedant's Revolt? Which Tyler.
That is one of my son's favourite jokes.
I promise: no more Russian. It causes argument.
[Lib] It was ironic, as I wrote it.
Right, that's settled, now shall we move on?
We have all moved on, as politicians say.
I can't think of anything worth saying yet.
Do you think we'll have a hot summer?
Hot summer, yes please. I'll be unemployed then.
So will I, however sadly not through choice.
I hope we move office before a hot summer.
Its not my choice either. Government lottery. Bastards.
Have you been sacrificed for the Olympics? Disgraceful.
I am actually considering volunteering for Olympic sacrifice.
How do they decide who gets first place?
Well, firstly, you have to live in Stratford.
On Avon (is Shakespeare fatal?) or east London?
Shakespeare can be fatal. Watch "Theatre of Blood".
(pen) It's the latter. You will be made homeless.
