✖ Guild rules above thread rules. That means you treat each other with respect.
✖ Respect the rules for each and every game. Thread owners make the rules for their games so please respect their final say.
✖ No pushing people to do something that makes them uncomfortable. Some people don't like to hand out personal information so respect their decision if they say no.

So what's considered a word game? If it's acceptable to Gaia then it's acceptable here. The following list are examples of word games you can post up in here.
✖ "Person Above You" Games:
A lot of word games are "Person Above You" type games. They involve responding to, or explaining something about, the avatar or user whose post is above yours.
✖ "Person Below You" Games:
An inverse of the "Person Above You" game. These threads use the same rules as person above you games only you are required to explain something to the user that posted after you. Throwing games often use this format.
✖ Alphabet Games:
Games where you must post a word or lyric that begins with a specific letter (or any variation on that) are alphabet games.
✖ Counting Games:
Self-explanatory. Counting games involve counting up or down from a specific number. (A good example is addition subtraction games like Battle of the Sexes)
✖ Riddle/Puzzle Games:
Games where the original poster asks you to solve a riddle or puzzle fall into this category (oddly enough). It should be noted that these games require a lot of effort on the part of the original poster to keep running--please make certain the original poster is still active before you post to one of these games.
✖ Quotes:
Games where the original poster asks you to post either random quotes or a favorite quote that pertains to the given theme. Most of these games deal with movie and television quotes and often require effort to be put into the game to keep it alive.
✖ Random Post Games:
Games where you are given set rules and themes but require no real interaction on behalf of the users. Games like, "What Song Are you Listening to Now" and "What Underwear are you Wearing Right Now" are examples of games that fit into this category. Games like these are run on set rules and a basic theme but have no real user interaction to them.
✖ Tag Games:
Games where you are given a certain theme in the rules to which you are required to stick to in play. Tag Games are run like Alphabet Games only they rely on the usage of one common theme with the games. Themes can run from book series to Movies.
✖ Story Creation Games:
Games where you create a story. Another game that doesn't last very long due to the amount of effort they take, story games don't rely on themes but on the fact that you are limited to the amount of words you can have in a single sentence.
✖ Guessing Games:
Games that ask you to guess from a list of clues given by a user. Guessing games all have preset themes and preset asking limits in the rules in which you are asked to follow. These games don't last long due to the effort needed to keep them alive.
