Word association game
Hey, other bloggers. Come play Funny Farm. Essentially, you’re guessing words that are related to the word in the big centre box.
Most fun: you can work cooperatively, so after you’ve played for a bit, you can merge my saved game and we can play together. I haven’t gotten very far, and it seems like more fun to do with people, anyhow.
Update: got a few more answers. This game is annoyingly frustrating.
Update 2: even more. Someone, help. Please.

I’d love to, but you’re already a heck of a lot farther along than I am (just by looking at your minimap
Thanks for posting the link, though. It’s a great way to spend a cold rainy Sunday afternoon…

Oh man, I can see myself wasting a lot of time with this.

Seems to run on a pretty wimpy server…

You are so far ahead of us that there’s no way we can help you. Before dinner, we were still clicking on your saved farm square to ascertain directions on the outerlying edges. We are HOOKED.

I can’t get more than a couple of guesses in a row before it gives me a “sever busy” message. Too annoying, because I want to get hooked. :(

It’s fun, no? I’ve paused for a while, so I’m really ready to be caught up.
September 24th, 2006 @ 10:49 pm
And I admit, I worked on it quite a bit until I blogged it.

That’s as far as I am. It’s probably not any farther than yours. I cheated off you on a page or two. I must say, you sure do know your poker stars. Sheesh.

Hmm, didn’t like that comment. Let me try again.
This is where I am. Not too far. I cheated off you on a page or two. I must say, you sure do know your poker stars. Sheesh.

My comments keep getting eaten. :( Maybe it doesn’t like the tiny urls I keep leaving? Maybe they’ll all magically appear in an embarrassing comment flood? Who can say?

Sheepish: I googled the poker people. I mean, really. Google is my friend!
Maybe you mentioned poker? I don’t know. I unspammed your comments.
September 25th, 2006 @ 12:08 am
Like I said…
Sigh.
September 25th, 2006 @ 12:25 am
Sheepish: square a4, try google earth/google maps. (Really stupid and annoying.) d2, try ‘noon’. And as stupid as it is, the link between magician and rodeo clown is just clown. The Davids both do levitation.

I’m not sure if it’s better or worse that this is being done in comments.
September 25th, 2006 @ 12:47 am
There are other ways…
September 25th, 2006 @ 12:48 am
Indeed, quite a number of them.
September 25th, 2006 @ 11:22 am
I’m hooked.
I merged your games into mine, and added a few things… in case folks are interested, http://tinyurl.com/qqkmp

Ok! I can add to that a bit: http://tinyurl.com/ln3mz

I think this has everything parodie, orthoclase and sheepish have done.
September 25th, 2006 @ 3:00 pm
du-UDE! This is really hard, and totally addicting. Thanks! I think…

Maybe y’all are way ahead by now?
September 25th, 2006 @ 7:03 pm
Ok. My last update for a while.
September 25th, 2006 @ 8:44 pm
OK, I got like three things…
September 25th, 2006 @ 10:41 pm
Gah!
September 25th, 2006 @ 11:10 pm
Almost done — but seriously? I have NO IDEA for the meta clues.
September 26th, 2006 @ 12:23 am
I can only do it in threes. Also no idea on the meta clues…
September 26th, 2006 @ 12:36 am
My latest. I think it has everything from yami’s last, plus I added some drug stuff and a bit on the right, I think.
September 26th, 2006 @ 12:37 am
Nevermind, I’m a retard. THIS is my latest. Too many windows open.
September 26th, 2006 @ 12:58 am
last update for the night. I will sleep on the metaclues.
September 26th, 2006 @ 2:09 am
I loved the game, for the three or four minutes I could play it. But the server seems really dodgy. Every few minutes it gives me a message that too many people are playing and then I can’t put in any new guesses for about 10 minutes, even when I refresh it.
Sigh.
And when I tried to access it from a different computer later in the day I kept getting the message, “Cheating attempt has been logged”, even though I wasn’t cheating (promise!).
September 26th, 2006 @ 10:08 am
Styley, it does that occasionally. I consider it a forced break and a good thing. I don’t get the cheating attempt issue.
Metapuzzle: I am pretty sure I know the state they want.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND nevermind! I figured out the metapuzzle, though I’m still missing a bunch of squares.
September 26th, 2006 @ 10:08 am
(You will absolutely need google for the metapuzzle, unless you have way way way too much trivia in your head.)
September 26th, 2006 @ 9:56 pm
PS I think it gives you the “cheating attempt logged” message if you mouse over and accidently click on a box. It thinks you’re trying to decipher the code.
