This is an odd variant of the next word game. Instead of coming up with a completely different word, you change one letter of the previous word. Unlike the next word game, this game somebody can actually lose at. You cannot change the order of the letters. For example from "dirt" you could make "diet" by changing the r to an e. But you could not change "dirt" to "trio: by changing the d to an o. I will start us off with a simple word.

Apparently you didn't read the first page. This is a variant of the Next Word Game. Instead of a new word, you change one letter.
EDIT: Or maybe you were following the rules and you just couldn't think of a word, so you started over?

I wonder if we've repeated any words?
bean
Yup. Plenty of them. This is a very limited game.
bear
fear.
It'd be a lot less limiting if there were some concrete rules about how to change from this to the next set of words... eg, if someone repeats a word, or something.
tear
The problem with that is that the game is now fifteen pages long, so it's really hard to keep track of which words have been used.
teal
Yes, but setting that rule - limited to each game, of course - would limit that effect somewhat; after all, it's not like we can come up with fifteen pages in _every_ game, now, is it?
team
Good point... so, how about something like at the point that no one in a set amount of time comes up with a word that hasn't been used, you start the game over? The question is, what's the period of time? You couldn't make it too short or too long.

Well I guess if somebody wants to start on a new number of letters than they can do so whenever they want. I don't care this time.

I would suggest starting with a sentence and being allowed to add or remove letters. This would provide more flexibility.
