Am not signed up for this (yet), but here's a new set:

Green
Counter
Bag

And all of you playing this will like a slightly more involved variant (called a 3x3 for obvious reasons). It's the same word association game but at two levels - also, at the first level, you aren't told which three words go together (so thery're just arranged alphabetically).

Here's one (inspired by a puzzle from a website I frequent): have a go!

Bull's
Date
Evil
Man
Moon
Red
Stunt
Through
Trouble

The down-side is now we have an IIT mind to pit against and that is an impossible battle, atleast for me :)

'Under' is the right answer.

3X3 sounds very ineteresting and will raise the bar too. Do send your email address so that I can add you to this blog and you can post details about 3X3 and your clues in a new post, for GAME-10.

Green bean
Bean counter
Bean bag

On second thoughts, why dont you start with 3X2 & switch to a higher gear after a little while?

Here's a 3x2 :

How to play the WORD ASSOCIATION game
*********************************************

1. Three clue words are given at the beginning of each round

2. You are required to find a word which is related to all three clues

3. The answer has to be a word such that it makes sense in association with each of the clue words, when added either before or after each of them

Example -

Clues:
LEAF / OUT / GO

Answer= LET
leaflet / outlet / let go

4. The answer has to be a whole word which can stand alone (not part of a word).

5. If no one is able to get the right answer, additional clues can be given, as the game progresses

6. The winner of each round gets to give the next set of clues (or may pass on the chance to another player).

7. The 'COMMENTS' link below each set of clues can be used for guess work and giving the answer.

8. Clues for each new round can be given in a new " POST ", with the Game's number as the 'Subject' of the Post.

All are welcome.

Variations
--------------
3x2 :
Six clue words - for two games - are given and the clues of both the games are jumbled up.
You are required to sort the words into two sets of 3 words each and find the answer to both the sets.

3x2+1 :
Seven words - 2 sets of three words each and one extra word - are given.
You have to sort them and find the two answers for the 2 sets of words.
These two answers would also make an association with the REMAINING word.
Example:

Clues:
ball / bread / class / elbow / joke / news / show
Answers:
ROOM (ball / elbow / show)
STALE (bread / joke / news)
Extra word - Class
Final answer -
Mate (Room mate / Stalemate / Classmate)
Note: The 7 words are usually given in alphabetical order, not arranged conveniently.

3x3 :
Nine words are given and you have to sort them into three sets of three words each and find three answers.
Additionally you need to find a word which will form associations with the three answers.
