Verbosity - the mechanics.

I've been playing this crazy word game with my family for a few years, and it's a bloody laugh a minute. Verbosity is a game that encourages creative and outlandish imagination, along with good language skills - and you end up with hilarious sentences like...

"The affable bastard enjoys my plump groin." - Ian (3 points)

How it Works

Players are given:
- 7 Letters of the Alphabet (eg. H,P,S,C,G,F,A)
- A category card (eg. Women-1pt, Love-2pts, Headache-3pts)

Each letter represents the beginning of a word.
Left to right, right to left - up to you.
But string the words together to make a sentence.

Example: (left to right)
Head pains slowly came, giving Fanny aches. (That's a 3 pointer)

Example: (right to left)
Amber feels good caressing Simon's purple head. (That's a possible 2 pointer, or 1 point at least)

Got that? Yay! Moving on. hehe
