Catch Up Round!

Catch up rounds are designed to help new players or those who haven't won a round yet. So, you are not eligible to win this round if you have won a round already, but feel free to join in the fun!

This Quest topic is a writing/word challenge! It is inspired by Round 18's Word Challenge and a suggestion from @jan23com! Since it seemed everyone had a lot of fun with that Round, I figured we would bring it back with a twist.

The Quest

Write 4 sentences with every word starting with the corresponding letter of the alphabet. For example if you start with the letter A the next word would have to start with B and the following word C and so on until all 26 letters are used. You may start with any letter of the alphabet, but must continue with the next letter for the next word and so on. For example starting with J next word would start with K and so on. Ideally we would like the sentences to be as structured as you can.

Start of an example sentence for any clarification:

All Ben's Cats Danced Elegantly...etc. etc.

Lets see who can get all 26 words! Good Luck!

For this challenge.. If there's a tie.. We will do another round to see who wins.
The winner will be decided by whoever gets the most votes.

The only people who can vote in a qualifying sense are @apolymask and the judges selected and they will vote by leaving a comment on the submission that they like the most and say something like.. "I vote for this one" and a reason why they voted would be good too, but is not mandatory.

You have until this challenge post payout ends to submit your post. Though we do accept late entries if you get it in before all the judges vote.

The challenge will finish after 7 days when the post ends and provides its payout cycle and unless there is a tie, the winner will gain the steem, the XP and have a point to go towards their long term win. (minus the 25% for curation)

A Boy Called Davemc Evoy Finds Good Helpful Individuals Joins Kinfolk Linking Minds Naturally Over Posting Quality Rated Statements Though Under Very Worked Xtreme Yearlong Zest

Not a post so not an entry

I love how you snuck the MC behind the first name.

Have to be crafty sometimes ;)

Awesome comment jan! Unfortunately you can only get one hidden ladder per season or else I would probably nominate this one for a hidden ladder as well!

This looks like it is going to be fun, I think even though I don't qualify, I may give it a shot also, depends on time available, and of course brain power available. I knew I should not have given away that dictionary...damn.

I agree with you on the brain power! We should get some interesting entries!

Both of these rounds,well all of them really, make you have to use your brain, I am working on 26 right now, and then hopefully tomorrow 27, we will see.

26 is a tough one! There is just so much to write about! I have to really zone in on the focusing.

This one is definitely quite tough to tackle... and yet there were still many that were up to the task! I'll see if I can have a go at this one :p

People really seem to love the word games! :) I definitely think we should try to do more in the future as that's something that seems to really be appreciated. Glad to see you're considering an entry as well!

I will not be entering this contest, as It was my idea, I wish all who enter Good Luck
I know I can get quite a ways down the alphabet, I had tried before I suggested the idea. I feel it would be unfair if I got further then others, after suggesting the game,
Best of Luck to all and I hope you enjoy this challenge.

I don't think you need to exclude yourself just cause you came up with the idea! It's of course up to you though. No one can force you to play, lol.. But.. I don't personally see a problem at all. I think bashadow played in the round he created IIRC? Either way.. Good idea! I like it and I'm looking forward to seeing what people come up with. :D

Well, I cannot remember the sentence I made up, I got stuck on the x. but I did think up options later for it,
my morals prevent me from playing.

A better called dead elephant fought greatly hinders intellectual jokers / killers / loners might not opress powerful quadrants right? so the under valiants wont xecute, yes? Zebra?

Im a judge not an entry hahaha

Here is my Entry.
A Bird Can Dig Everywhere For Grubs, Hunger Incites Just killing lizards, Moths, Numerous Other Pests, Quickly Ravaging Succulent Trees, Usually Various Wild Xylocarps, Yielding Zygomorphs

That's cool.

Good one @losthippie, people need to look up some of those words to get the context in your sentence - I did! Xylocarps and Zygomorphs!

This looks like a really fun challenge! Good idea to both jan and iexplore!
I have a feeling there will be some neat entries this round and I'm curious to see the kinda entries we get! :D
Also.. Steemit is being a bit glitchy again for me today and it's not letting me upvote this right now, so I'll upvote it later when it clears up.

Bashadow's round idea was awesome, and this being a variation of that I think it has the potential to being as popular! I think there will be some fun entries to read!

Fun but now my brain hurts. Thank you @Jan23com for the challenge. I used you for the J in my post as an homage.
