Word Scrambler - off-topic fun

Post by Hoi Polloi »

Here's a new off-topic game!

The simple rules:
(1) you may keep the same letters or swap 1 letter in the word for a new letter of your choice (it will always be 5 letters)
(2) you may re-arrange the letters to make a new word, whether you changed a letter or not
(3) you may add commentary above or below the new word, but the new word should be in all caps and in a row of its own.


This should be fun! I'll

START

the ball rolling with an easy one!

We are reformers in Spring and Summer; in Autumn and Winter we stand by the old;
reformers in the morning, conservers at night. - Ralph Waldo Emerson

I know, it doesn't work - but it would have been really fun if it did.
