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.

Softlope could be an Australian rock band, perhaps.
Excited people want to say words to me.
They all begin "You may already have won..."
Surely better than "Where's what you owe us??"
Softlope sounds like a wolf in sheep's clothing.
Or a sheep in wolf's clothing, may be?
BBZZZTTTT-ding!! 'Maybe' is one word, Softers. No buts.
But isn't BBZZZTTTT-ding two words in itself, pen?
Per chance we need a ruling on archaisms.
Thought we agreed hyphenated words count as one?
But what if they were not all-ways hyphenated?
The spirit of the rules needs no excuses.
Good point. But let's not be too pedantic.
For fun, we could be REALLY pedantic, instead!
Would that be as opposed to fictitiously pedantic?
In this game, I am only virtually pedantic.
Happy Charity Guilt Day, everyone UK based!
That's the most clunking sentence I've ever read.
Yes, but do I look bovvered to you?
Clunk off, I'm a linguist, therefore I'm right. :)
If two linguists disagreed, which would be right?
Are you calling me a linguist? I'm flattered.
That is not really flattery. That is indigestion.
It certainly sounded like it from over here.
That can only be explained by anomalous propagation.
Oh really? So explain it then, clever clogs!
I can't - it's anomalous, or possibly very loud.
Can somebody please turn down the volume, then?
What sort of volume would you like, then?
I'd turn down Wayne Rooney's autobiography without hesitation.
But that doesn't really answer the question asked.
Remind me of what the question asked was.
The first eight-word move in the new place!
Indeed! Thanks rab for seemless transitions! Huzzah huzzah!
Shurely not an unseemly transition? It works well.
After all the accolades, shall we move on?
What topic should we move on to then?
I think we could usefully address patio heaters.
My patio often remains chilly after using one.
I find drinking beer helps more than heating.
[Lib] Was that intended as an added consonant?
Beer makes me forget what I just uum, err
Err is right. That was nine words, moroni.
Looks as though Spring has arrived at last.
Oh dear. Don't put the mockers on it!
There is nothing but fog here in Cambridge
Must remember to count the vertical single letter
Ah, and I thought moroni was an insult!
Perhaps moroni would care to explain his/her name.
Moroni is a mormon angel statue with trumpet
It is also "moron" followed by letter "i"
You decide if I am moron or statue
Sure you're not the capital city of Comoros?
No man is an island, except Fred Madagascar
*[hmmm - perhaps moroni is an attention seeker person]*
[Chalky] Fred Madagascar made me laugh. Newbie, surely.
There's Lennox Lewis. Don't laugh - he'll thump you.
Tommy Cooper made me laugh; Tony Blair doesn't.
Rosie, remember Keith Harris? Not many laughs really.
st dogmael made me laugh. Where'd he go?
There's David Gower. No man is a peninsula.
Tim, Graham, Willie, Barry, Humphry made me laugh.
Newbie to board, fifteen year veteran of MC
Fifteen years ago I wasn't even a teenager!
Neither was I, but for a different reason!
Come, children! Fifteen years ago is only yesterday.
Yesterday was Thursday, in my world at least.
I really ought to go to bed earlier.
A sentiment I voice for myself also [sigh]
Sighs don't count, just as size doesn't matter.
How many points for a pair of pants?
Pants with points in are really very uncomfortable.
Surely that depends on what activities pleasures you?
