The aim is to post the 'TargetWord'
----------------------------------------The rules are simple:
You can only change 1 letter each go, except if the current word has a double letter when you can change 2 letters, one of which MUST be one of the double letters. However, this is not mandatory Plurals are permitted is you're stuck! (although it may be seen as lazy) A word is pre-defined as a ‘Target word’, a five letter word, say ‘While’ the aim is now for someone to post the next word ‘while’ however, the rules above still apply! If we have the last word being ‘walls’ then walks, w…., w.… while No prizes just a portion of kudos to whoever posts the target word. Whomever, posts the Target word, gets to pick the next one, so we begin again… I would suggest clearly defining the TargetWord like I have started below: The TargetWord is - Smile

shiel No, that's another game! To start with a word and see how many new words can be made from the same letters...Is reordering allowed too? When the options are exhausted, a new word is chosen.

Wheen Unfortunately, this is not within the rules. The previous word was 'Shiel' therefore you have changed 3 letters. The opjective of the game is to post the TargetWord, while remaining within the rules, in my initial post. A correct word could be; Shale Or Leash Hails The game continues with 'Shale' as the current word...
