@seekjustice The riddle had tying the dragon’s tail first, but she hit the gong and then forget to tie the dragon’s tail cause she got scared.

@catwing

Though definitely intriguing. Why did poor Cele see gongs and get confused?

@valtmy Interesting.
@rochellaine okay, bye.
@seekjustice Oh… It is… *shrug*

@valtmy

Well, you certainly know how to disturb people.

@rochellaine

Goodnight

@catwing

And yours is just a tad confusing 😛

@seekjustice @valtmy @rochellaine

My favorite sentence.
“I saw the gongs and got it out of order.”
Poor Cele…

@catwing @valtmy @rochellaine

I just finished my fifteen minutes. I got 415.

My last sentence (hence my interest in colts):

Several foals, all varying shades of brown, three black mares and a yearling colt, who looked big enough to be kicked out of the mob any day now.

@rochellaine

Well, I’ve just noticed a lot of use of the word colt. Just then I saw “rounding up mustang mares and colts”, etc. So I was wondering if it had a different meaning.

“Some guns are called colts” was also my immediate thought.

All right, I’m putting on my timer again @Catwing

@jenwriter17 I didn’t know that. Maybe I shall enter… *ponders*

@jenwriter17 Okay.
@valtmy @rochellaine @seekjustice Are y’all ready to start? 15 minutes?

@rochellaine another war sounds good. 15 minutes?
I think we’re doing favorites, but saying or last sentences cause they’re funny. XD
This is great. 😀

@seekjustice Okay. I double checked and…
They are called a filly or Colt until over three years of age. But at one year they are yearlings, instead of foals apparently.

@jenwriter17

Righto. The things I was reading seemed to indicate it meant more generally a horse that hadn’t reached mature age. Here it very specifically means a horse between 1-4. Younger than 1 is a foal, and a female is a filly. I’ve never really seen any Americans use those terms though, which was why I was a little confused.

@seekjustice I’m an American horse person… And an American cat person… 🙁 ( 😛 )
Foal – Baby horse under one year (I think it’s one year)
Filly – Female foal
Colt – Male foal
But some people are named Colt. 🙂

@jenwriter17 I chose favorite. My last was…
But it was big.
Where is my Newberry Medal? IT will probably be rewritten. XP

@rochellaine @catwing @jenwriter17

And I’m pretty sure I have no interesting sentences, but this one…

This brumby was one of a highly sought after colouring–not quite pure white, but not cream or golden either.

…is a reference to one of my favourite childhood books, The Silver Brumby.

I think I do better at 15 minutes. Also I have kitten crawling all over me…

@rochellaine @jenwriter17

Guess what? I got 269. Without eating pizza.

I’m sort of stuck on the details of capturing brumbies though. Exactly how one does it with a horse and no helicopter.

By the way, Jen. Since you are an American horsie person, what does the word colt mean? You seem to use it in a different way to we do.

@seekjustice Yeah. I think I heard we beat the last record, though I would have to double check.

@jenwriter17 What was your sentence?

@rochellaine I think we could just share one. *shrug*

I got 146.
My sentence… hmmmm…

Her legs felt like iron beams cemented into the ground as the moss and dirt fell off the dragon rising from its…

@rochellaine

My guild did not win the last word war though 🙁

@catwing @jenwriter17

Okay, I’m putting my timer on.

@rochellaine I see.

*ponders* Maybe it would…
