This is a game idea I got from another site I'm on: Loamhedge Abbey Forum.

You've probably played Hangman in real life before. If not, it's a simple and fun game in which one person thinks of a word (sometimes several words or a phrase). He draws a number of blanks equal to the number of letters in the word/phrase.

Turn by turn, other people guess letters, and if the letter is in the word, the appropriate blank must be filled in. Each time a letter is guessed incorrectly, a part of the man (the head, the body, and then the arms and legs) is added on.

Since we're on a forum, let's not bother with drawing the stick figure - just know that the players get nine wrong guesses before the man dies!

I've thought of a word; it's not too hard, in my opinion.

Have you considered making each day count - doing something meaningful each day - instead of letting the days and weeks and months and years fly into oblivion? --Bright Side
