[OT] Change A Letter Game - Part IV (7 letters)

Same rules, but lets go with 7 letters. You must change one letter, and rearrange

Letters > settles

Re: [OT] Change A Letter Game - Part IV (7 letters)

w0t 7 letters this is going to be a challenge! Especially since I tend to forget rules =P

settles -> meddles

I hope you're not pretending to be evil while secretly being good. That would be dishonest.

Re: [OT] Change A Letter Game - Part IV (7 letters)

You do have a tendency to bend the rulez

settles > meddles - they do rhyme, but this isn't a poetry game. Only one letter can be switched at a time. Don't feel bad, someone else pointed it out, I already had a reply posted.

So.. we're back to:

letters > settles

I hesitated on this, until I found that Snitter is a village and civil parish in Northumberland, England

If I thought the response was based only on the name of a Twitter client for Mac/Win, I'd say foul.

I'll leave it up to KCrimson, but IMHO the responses should be able to be identified in at least one online dictionary. That's why I cite M-W so often.

Re: [OT] Change A Letter Game - Part IV (7 letters)

As I said in a PM (I'm paraphrasing so that I can fit in a response ) - let the inertia of the game carry itself, and have fun. We've been lax in the rules before, but we try to limit the words to REAL words, although I've seen and used geographic names, product names (I replied to "ROLAIDS" the other night!) and we've even had some Spanish words thrown in back in the 5-letter days. I'm not the "game keeper" - we all are, and I think the consensus is to "just have fun".

In case you didn't catch it - my 7 letter word response is in bold letters.
