    Oh fcuk......

    Will send a revised list soon...ish....

    I just realised that I played this under the impression that the last letter of the last answer had to be the same as the first letter of the first answer but that isn't the case, is it?

    Stop making the rules unnecessarily harder... :pac:

    Right, Necro...? NECRO... ;)

    It was an effing nightmare and I couldn't be arsed changing my answers now so I'll take the ace.

    Nope not necessary, otherwise the poor elephants would just go round and round in a circle and never get anywhere :D

    So we don't have to connect the last word to the first word?
    Just checking I'm reading it right!

    Correct. It wouldn't be a chain like in the Jungle Book then

    I've had a long think about this and I'm taking the chance and changing an answer. It won't end well.

    You're thinking of Goldfish. ;) (Maybe I should actually set up a game called Goldfish after this one?)

    I have a chain set up. It's not a good chain. In fact, it's a terrible chain. But I am really struggling to fit any deviation from that chain in so I'm either overlooking something incredibly obvious that everyone else has seen, or I have actually landed on one of the few possible answers to this thing.

    My telepathic connection with Sawduck is failing me this time, I haven't got the Covid vaccine yet so am missing that sweet 5G microchip goodness. :(

    eh what? :confused::confused:


    The disease was caused by 5g masts, so all the 5g masts were smashed,

    but now,
    the cure is to inject 5g microchips in you??


    I can't keep up anymore.

    This is dedication..awake at 2am compiling this for our masochist, Necro :)
    I have no idea how anyone will get any answers the same so I'm curious to see how this game of sheep/elephants will work.
    Someone will have to invent a joke about crossing an elephant with a sheep.

    Q: Why do elephants have long trunks?

    Sadist you mean? Necs enjoys inflicting pain on others, not receiving it.


    But here's a joke..
    What do you get when you cross an elephant with a sheep?
    Jumbo wool. Boom-Boom!!!

    Don't know what all the fuss was about, all done in under 15 minutes. Either I'm woefully under-prepared and I'll be picking up my first wooden spoon, or I'm a genius and the rest of you are a bunch of stressed out slackers. :D
