OLR .. We have been more or less following Char's ideas about starting a new word with either a syllable or a sounds-like from either the beginning or the end of the last word posted; failing that using the last 3 letters from the previously posted word.
So you using 'ex' from the middle of the last posted word has thrown me.

It took us regulars a while to muddle through to establish our evolvement of 'the rules'.

It's now (sort of) any number of syllables but the next word should begin with either the first or last syllable. If the word has only one syllable then the follow on word has to begin with the first or last letters. 'Syllable' can be taken as spelling too. So if the syllable has to change it's sound, as long as the spelling is correct, that's fine. You'll pick it up .......... :D
