Im in waiting room now. This should not take long as im just getting a review of a couple things. Nothing worrying. Just hoping they aren’t running late.

This challenge daunts me man

Alois, Lysthea, and Lorenz go in a triangle and get all their rhymes done tonight.

Edelgard meets Claude tomorrow at 5am. Shamir meets Claude tomrrorow at 1pm. Shamir and Edelgard meet at some time tonight or tomorrow.

That is one possible solution.

I like this

Claude · « **Reply #27 on:** November 10, 2021, 08:45:53 pm »

That sounds really good Shamir

Lysithea · « **Reply #28 on:** November 10, 2021, 08:54:25 pm »

I think I'd prefer to only do one pair tonight. (I will be unavailable from midnight EST - any sets I do need to be completed by then)

but if we can fit both in, that will also work.

Claude · « **Reply #29 on:** November 10, 2021, 08:56:55 pm »

Now that I’ve read there is a cap of one hour that relaxes things for me a bit (here I was trying to line up times where I’d have at least a few hours)

For me any start time in the below periods is fine:

5am-7am est
1pm-2:30pm est (2pm would actually be ideal here if possible)

I wouldn’t be able to have enough time for consistent coupleting tonight unfortunately

Claude · « **Reply #30 on:** November 10, 2021, 09:05:48 pm »

Also I think for me at least, syllables are going to be the big challenge

Shamir · « **Reply #31 on:** November 10, 2021, 09:07:21 pm »

Claude, I'll meet you in the 1pm-2:30pm slot, and Edelgard in the 5am slot.

We may be able to skirt around the syllable requirements using comma separated lists, like lists of names.

With 80 second timers, realistically closer to 60 seconds this requires near 60 different comma separated lists. It doesn't seem to be against rules for us to make a list in advance? Might want to ask the mods that one.

Lorenz · « **Reply #33 on:** November 10, 2021, 09:23:27 pm »

Im here!

Alliteration avoids all repeated words - or some at least

Lorenz · « **Reply #34 on:** November 10, 2021, 09:24:24 pm »

The things have to be on a topic, so a list of names wont help you if the theme is chocolate.

Where are we doing the challenge? In a chat room, or just in here?

Sothis · « **Reply #35 on:** November 10, 2021, 09:26:36 pm »

It'll be on sub-boards you'll get access to when you're ready.

Lorenz · « **Reply #36 on:** November 10, 2021, 09:28:00 pm »

Alois, Lysthea: Either of you ready?

Alois · « **Reply #37 on:** November 10, 2021, 09:32:40 pm »

I'll be ready in about 30 minutes! Apologies on the delay, just finishing making dinner

Lysithea · « **Reply #38 on:** November 10, 2021, 09:34:33 pm »

I can be ready to go.

Unless we want more strategy talk before hand.

I think we should [possibly try to list out one syllable alliterative names as per Shamir's example on the cat before we go.

Lorenz · « **Reply #39 on:** November 10, 2021, 09:35:49 pm »

Im fine with waiting 30 mins. That gives me time to write up a list of words to use up.

One word we can repeat is "but"

So "<name> and <name> .... ate chocolate
But <name> and <name> ... were too late"

in each rhyme

Alois · « **Reply #42 on:** November 10, 2021, 09:56:26 pm »

Lorenz · « **Reply #46 on:** November 10, 2021, 10:03:11 pm »

I dont even know what Slant Rhyme means

Lorenz · « **Reply #47 on:** November 10, 2021, 10:06:14 pm »

Us starting means the lists we have put up are it. We can defer if you want more time?

Alois · « **Reply #48 on:** November 10, 2021, 10:06:36 pm »

It's when something kinda rhymes. Like you have to force the rhyme through an odd stress or accent change.

So "<name> and <name> .... ate chocolate
But <name> and <name> ... were too late"

chaw-co-layte is not how that's normally pronounced but you could force that probably

Sothis · « **Reply #49 on:** November 10, 2021, 10:06:54 pm »

I've opened your subforum up to you; let me know when you want to go.
