Here are the Rules

1. All answers must follow in alphabetical order, A follows Z and the round continues.

2. Only one guess is allowed per letter, and you must wait for at least one player to post before it is your turn again. (However, if the game is stalled on a hard letter, you can post again after one day)

3. Google is a click away - no skipping the X, Q, J or Z

4. No Repeats!

5. No wrong answers

6. Violation of rules 4 and 5 mean the game is over.  The last person to give a correct answer is the winner and gets to choose a new topic.

7. If the person who's turn it is to choose a new topic is not available for a considerable amount of time, then you can choose from the topics listed in post Number One or choose one of your own.  Try to avoid repeats, however, unless a great topic was cut short too soon.

8. The "Unwritten rule" (yes, I am aware of the irony).  Server lag or just poor timing means two people will often both have a turn at the same letter.  If that happens and you are second, then delete or edit your post and try for the next letter.  If there is a server lag significant enough to ensure you don't catch the mistake immediately, then just delete your post later so the answer is still available when that letter comes around again.
