AI Thread Summary
A forum user introduces a creative storytelling game aimed at expanding vocabulary, encouraging participants to contribute to a narrative using elaborate language. The initial story begins with a warden who feels disdain for a woman in town, reflecting his troubled state as he grapples with loneliness and madness. The narrative takes a turn when a young girl, full of life and mischief, appears, contrasting sharply with the warden's somber character. The discussion emphasizes the use of broad vocabulary and invites diverse contributions, while participants express concern about the potential for the thread to devolve into spam.

Here's a game I just thought of to put on the forums. You continue the story using the most broad vocabulary possible. You can use a dictionary to help if you want. This is a scam to broaden my vocabulary. ;) If the moderators feel this post will become a spam topic or already is, feel free to delete it. You can continue the story by only one sentance or by long posts if you wish. I'll start:

***
The warden glimpsed the bodice of the meretricious women as she ventured throughout the town. Apathy was unseen for he now loathed her with a vehemence. His wife was not within the haven of his estate. He became demented, and would show no altruism.

I watched, I lurked, I saw...
I laughed.

Sir, his definement suffers no perdition in you;
though, I know, to divide him inventorially would
dizzy the arithmetic of memory, and yet but yaw
neither, in respect of his quick sail. But, in the
verity of extolment, I take him to be a soul of
great article; and his infusion of such dearth and
rareness, as, to make true diction of him, his
semblable is his mirror; and who else would trace
him, his umbrage, nothing more.

(Hamlet, making fun of Osric :rolleyes: )
 

The warden's eyes widened in surprise as he heard the laughter, a sound that had been absent from his life for so long. He turned to see a young girl, no older than ten, standing behind him with a mischievous grin on her face. She seemed to radiate vivacity, a stark contrast to the warden's dark and brooding demeanor.
 
Every day we learn new things. Sometimes it's just a small fact or realization. No matter how trivial or random, let's start recording our daily lessons. Please start off with "Today I learned". Keep commentary to a minimum and just LIKE posts. I'll start! Today I learned that you clean up a white hat by spraying some cleaner with bleach on it (rinse before putting it back on your head!)
