The rules are fairly simple. At the beginning of each round, someone will name a category. That same person will name something within that category that starts with the letter A, the second person names something that starts with the letter B, third person with the letter C, and so on and so forth. If you can't think of something for a letter, you are allowed to skip. A total of five skips are allowed per round. One round is going all the way through the alphabet once. If a letter was skipped, You may choose to go back and post your answer starting with that letter at the end of the round, but it is not required. Once the round has been completed, the next person to post has the option to continue with the same category, as long as it's not overly specific (ex: car names from 1967). At this moment in time, the limit for round continuations will be two (a total of three rounds for the same category in a row). If you choose to continue a round, Please make sure to mention that in your post. Any time a round is continued, repeats may not be made. If someone accidentally repeats an item, please do not give them a hard time. If someone has already informed them that the item that they have posted has already been said, DO NOT make a post doing the same thing. Categories will need to be vague enough for people to be able to name 1-3 things within that category for each letter (excluding the less-commonly used letters, such as X,Y, and Z, being as they are not as commonly used as some other letters) Hopefully I'm not forgetting anything. If you have any questions or recommendations for rules and such, you can PM me. A quick example of a partial round: Alright, I'll start. Category is... Household Items! A - an Altoid can

The aons were based on hangul, the korean writing system. If you don't know about it go check the wikipedia page here:www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hangul I think Aons are an alphabet like hangul, with each symbol representing a collection of letters. Each Aon is di-syllabic and has two short vowels(A,E,I,O but no U) so it shouldn't be to hard to figure out. I'm going to do this with out the chasm line, though that brings up a question for another day: Why is the chasm line part of AonAon and not just some "earth" or "physical" Aon Aon is two lines and a dot this represents A, O and N probably in the order drawn, which is A-top line first, O-Curved side line drawn second N-center dot drawn last Thus far I haven't made much progress in finding a pattern, but I believe lines of symmetry are also important. Hopfully you guys can figure this out better than I have so far.

Has anybody else noticed a correspondence between the meaning/attribute of Aon's and some of the names of people in the Cosmere? Like Dalinar and Kaladin. I can't remember off the top of my head what Shallon had to say about letters that could represent others in order to make a name symmetrical, but perhaps this could be another aspect to the whole thing?
