Subject: New city chain game
Written By: Crazy Don on 08/10/02 at 09:25 a.m.
I missed out on this one, so I'm starting it anew with:
Austin (Texas)
since the last one ended with "A."
Now will you give me a chance to play?

Did I forget the rules? The next city must begin with the last letter of the previous answer. So please play by these rules. The next city is:
South Charleston (West Virginia)
Then the next city is:
Nitro (West Virginia)
Then:
Osceola
Then:
Abilene
Then:
Elizabeth
Remember, the next city begins with the last letter of the following. The next city must begin with H. So we're going to start with:
Huntington
The next city starts with "N." Get it?

Well, the next stop is:
El Paso (TX)
which leads us to:

and now, we arrive in (hold your breath, now):
CHARLESTON, WV!!!!!
And now there's your C.
You are now free to move about the world, now that I finally got to mention Charleston.

Although there's one in Kansas, it's the city across the river from it in Missouri that's better known…
Ypsilanti (MI)
Right now I've stopped posting West Virginia towns since I finally got the chance to put Charleston in the thread. So if the town before can be linked to one in West Virginia, I'll put in a West Virginia town. Otherwise, I'll put in anything I damn well please.

Yes I know Crazydon, but the naming conventions for your state abbreviations are inconsistent, so guessing them becomes a little difficult......
To explain
I can see that as Alabama and Alaska both start with A and AL, they need to be separated somehow...
Idaho, Illinois and Indiana all have the first two letters of their names, but then Iowa, which would logically be IO, is for reasons best known to ??? IA !
Kansas and Kentucky, which would then logically be KA and KE, are KS and KY, totally going against the convention used for the I's....
Hence my confusion.....but I was trying.......
