Single Letter Word Game

[namida]

Okay, I thought I'd try something new here.

Here's the rules:
1) On your turn, you post one letter. This letter is added to the current string of letters. For example, if the previous two people posted L, C and Z, and you posted V, the string would then be LCZV.
2) Any words of at least three letters that end the current string, you gain an amount of points equal to the number of letters in that word. For example, if the current string is RAI, and you post N, you get 4 points for the word "RAIN".
3) You can get multiple words, as long as they're all at the end. For example, if the string becomes "CAPE", you would get 4 points for cape and 3 points for ape. However, you would not get any points for cap (the previous player, of course, would have got points for it).
4) The string can only be up to 10 letters long. If it's already 10 letters, when you add your letter to the end, the letter at the start of it should be dropped. For example, if the string is "ABCDEFGHIJ", you would drop the A when you post your new letter, to keep it from going over 10 letters.
5) Once you take a turn, you may not play again until either 3 other people have made a move, or one other person has made a move and 12 hours have passed since your last play. This rule is only in effect from the post on Page 7 announcing it. (Any posts before that announcement are subject to the old rule, which is simply that you may not play twice in a row.)
6) Please repost the entire string in your post, to save everyone from having to look back.
7) Bonus: Getting a 8+ letter word gives you an extra 5 points. Getting 3 or more words in one turn gives you an extra 5 points. You may get both bonuses in a single turn, but you can only get each bonus once per turn.
8) You must point out the words yourself (however, it's acceptable to not point out what they're worth). If you miss one, you lose the points for it. Posts that are edited before being added to the scoreboard are completely void (however, their letter remains in the chain), posts that are edited afterwards retain the credit they had before but do not get any new points for words that were missed. You are not required to specifically point out if you get a bonus. (However, doing so is nice!)
9) While not essential, if you're using obscure words, a reference link is nice.
10) If two or more posts are made at the same or similar time, resulting in both players adding a letter to the same place, please ignore all but the first post. For example, if the string is "XKC", and one person posts D making it "XKCD", and the other posts E making it "XKCE" (instead of the second person seeing the post with D and adding to this), the current string is "XKCD" not "XKCE". In the same way, if the second poster's letter would have got them points, they do not get these points as someone else has already added a letter to that point. If you accidentally do post and miss out a previous player's turn, please edit your post to remove your turn, to avoid confusion.

What words count or don't count:
1) Names of people or places do not count (unless they have another valid use that doesn't fall into these categories). "Stephen" is not acceptable because it exists only as a person's name. "Hope" is fine because even though it's a name, it also has a normal meaning. "Japan" is not acceptable because it is only the name of a country. However, "Turkey" is fine because it has a normal meaning as well. The same goes for words derived from these. For example, "American" does not count because it is derived from the name of a place, America.
2) Plurals, past tense, -ing forms, and so on, do count. However, note that this is only true if the form does not require an apostrophe - unless someone's actually going to go and use an apostrophe as their letter. >_>
3) Overly rude words do not count. To avoid argument, the words considered "overly rude" are the F word, the C word, and the S word, as well as any racial slurs that don't have other, non-offensive meanings. This means that words like "Damn", "Crap" and "Ass" are acceptable. Don't like it, don't play, or find other words to aim for. Just to clarify, in case someone tries to get around this: Plurals and verb conjugations of these words also do not count.
4) Both British and American English are acceptable. So, both "Mum" and "Mom" count.
5) Namida's decision is final as to whether a word counts or not, and in the absence of a contradicting decision by Namida, the mods and admins of the forums also have the authority to decide if a word is valid or not. However, this does not mean you can't contest their decision if you disagree - if you think a word they have ruled as valid shouldn't be, or one they ruled as invalid is actually valid, mention this, preferably with some kind of reference link.
