It’s basically a name ladder. Each post will have three names on it. For every post, from the post before you, you take one letter and change it, so that it becomes a new legitimate name. For example:
Post #1: [name]ANN[/name]
Post #2: [name]ANNE[/name]
Post #3: [name]ANNA[/name]
Post #4: [name]ANNI[/name]
POST #5: [name]ANNIE[/name]
Equally so, you can take away letters. If the user before you posts [name]ANNIE[/name], you can make it [name]ANNE[/name] by removing the I.
In terms of judging what is a legitimate name, if it is entered in the Nameberry database, you may use it. This requires you to be slightly creative with spellings. [name]Anni[/name] is entered in the Nameberry database, and even though it’s a very ugly form of the name, it works for the purposes of this game.
If necessary, it is COMPLETELY ALLOWED to alter a girls’ name to a boys’ one, or back again.
[name]Cara[/name] - [name]Kara[/name]
[name]Marietta[/name] - [name]Mariella[/name] (I changed two letters since they are the same, so I assume that is allowed…)
[name]Willian[/name] - [name]William[/name]
