GAME RULES
Rule update (9/28/14)
: Players may guess at any word in the chain, even if they did not reveal a letter for the word they're guessing at.
Rule update (10/11/14)
: Fixed a typo and players may now resign from a game if they choose. The player that resigns automatically loses but gets to keep whatever amount is in their bank.
Their opponent may continue to finish out the chain if desired.
Rule update (11/29/14)
: Players may not continue playing after a resignation or if another player goes broke. The game is over immediately in both instances.
Rule update (1/22/15)
: Clarified that guesses must be exact. Created an explanation for the Tier/Ladder system.
Rule update (2/20/15)
: If all but the last letter of a word has been revealed in the betting round, a player may bet $0 and guess at that specific word.
Rule update (4/1/15)
: Fixed typos.
Rule update (6/3/15)
: Elaborated on the object of the game.
Rule update (10/1/15)
: Fixed a typo, elaborated on the terms of resignations and explained the use of an underscore in chains.
Rule update (1/29/17)
: Fixed a typo, elaborated on the object of the game again.

Also, guys, let me know your opinion on whether I should have two different players every game (if there are people in the queue), or if I should let the winner keep playing until they lose.
I sortof like having a champion to defeat (maybe do the 5-day champion rule?), but up to you!
I like the idea of a champion, too, but I also like the idea of more people playing since the game can take a while, lol. I'll wait to hear from others.

You know, I don't think they would allow this in the actual game... but to make things more competitive and strategic, I think I will allow it in my game.

Okay, I'll start up a couple more games and we'll try it out to see how it goes. I'd rather keep them all in one thread than have multiple threads in Frogstar just because that's more clicking and more susceptible to error on my part. I'll keep them in separate area boxes. If we can handle three at a time okay then I'll move it up even more.

Also, if we're going to do multiple games, then I'm going to scrap the champion idea for now. Maybe I'll revisit it, but I think it would just be more confusing than anything.

Please double check that you are playing your game! If we get too many errors with people guessing at the wrong game, then we'll need to figure something else out.
