= Introduction =
This is a fun and simple game. It's in the [[Wikipedia:Sandbox|Sandbox]] - feel free to join in! It's a good place to practice making links to articles, and to start looking for [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random interesting articles] on [[Wikipedia]].
The '''Department of Fun''' is dedicated to providing the [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia is a community|community]] of [[Wikipedia:Wikipedians|Wikipedians]], both [[Wikipedia:Guidance for younger editors|young]] and [[Wikipedia:List of Wikipedians by number of edits|old]] editors, with things to make them stay at Wikipedia, indirectly improving the encyclopedia. Below, you can find a fun and simple game to play.
== How to Play ==
By way of example, a game might start off with: <code>cat</code>. Then, the next person might add <code>cat, dog</code>. And after a few more rounds, we might get <code>cat, dog, pet, animal, forest, tree, ...</code>
Please, if you have ideas for activities or competitions, do not hesitate to post them to the discussion page or join the Department of Fun. And above all, [[Wikipedia:Enjoy yourself|enjoy yourself]]!
Simply, the game involves adding ''a single word'' to the list that is related to the previous one. Avoid repeating words, and keep the links tasteful! Please use only [[Help:Link#Wikilinks|blue links]] when associating. [[WP:PIPE|Piped links]] are acceptable in certain circumstances, such as <code><nowiki>[[Queen (band)|Queen]]</nowiki></code>. Clearly, as the game develops, one gets a pretty long list! If you're stuck for ideas, link to the last word in the list and add the first link that appears on that page as the next link. Thus [[Sebastian Junger]] would be followed by [[1962]], and [[Latin]] by [[ancient]].
For those who are curious, the first game began on July 6, 2005. The beginning word was "free".
Try to update the word count each time you add a word. The official limit for the main game is 400 words. Please note that this word limit should not be raised as well!
==Introduction==
Occasionally, it's good to have some ''branches'' that diverge the main game into several sections. The official limit for said branches is 80 words. Try not to make a branch when the main game is about to close down; that will only store your branch away in the archives. Please only branch when the word exists in the word list.
This is a fun and simple game. It was originally a [[Wikipedia:Sandbox|Sandbox]] subpage and is part of the [[Wikipedia:Department of Fun|Department of Fun]] nowadays — feel free to join in! Why not? It's a good place to practice making links to articles and find interesting pages to edit on [[Wikipedia]]. We also welcome more players to join! You can help promote by adding the userbox below. At the bottom of the page is a template with links to other Word Association variations.

'''In spirit of the game, please only type one word consecutively.''' Then, another person can respond to your word, and the game continues!

==How to play==
= The Game =
Simply, the game involves adding ''a '''single''' word'' to the list that is related to the previous one. Edit the main game or branch section, add a word, enclose it in brackets, update the word count, and save the page. Also, try to avoid miscounting if possible - make sure there are 10 words in at each 10th word!
'''We are now on Game #14!'''

===An example===
==Main word: "Reflectance" (closed)==
By way of example, a game might start off with: <code>cat</code>. Then, the next person might add <code>cat, dog</code>. And after a few more rounds, we might get <code>cat, dog, pet, animal, forest, tree, house, boat, </code> a [[Serbia|random country in Europe]], an [[Galaxy (British TV channel)|obscure British TV channel]], or even a [[Mel's Diner|fictional restaurant]]!

Players can only play one associated word at a time. If the current word is ''chair'', the next player can only add ''musical chairs'', not ''musical chairs'' and ''party games'' as well.
In game, as usual, ''it is a must'' to update the word count each time you add a word. The official limit for the main game is 555 words. '''''Please note that this word limit for this game must not be raised or lowered.'''''

Also, do not:
'''Total:''' 50
– Repeat words or links (but don't be a jerk if someone else does; delete it, but be polite about it! This is supposed to be fun!). If the duplicated word has remained long enough that 10 words have been added to it, leave it (deleting large sections of the game becomes disruptive).
– Post red links – use Show Preview before Save Page
– Create sub-branches – see below.
– Use naughty words
Branches may be started. However, only ONE branch is allowed for EVERY 100 WORDS, and NO MORE than 5 in total in the game. Therefore, branches are sparse. The 18th game went out of control with branches.

I have devised a template for those of you who believe you are addicted to this game and would like to tell the world:
