Think you're good with words? Are you ready for some non-standard fun? Acrony lets you compete online against other players to make the funniest phrase to a random acronym. Once everyone in the game-room has written their phrase, you then read and vote on the other players' phrases to see whose phrase is the funniest. It takes real wit and guile to become the Acrony champ, not to mention a sharp and sometimes devious sense of humor. The game is broken out into three-minute rounds and at the beginning of each round you're given a random acronym from three to seven letters long. For example you might be given the acronym “K B S S M.” From this you could write something like "Kate Beckinsale Swings Swords Masterfully". Once everyone in the game-room has written their phrases, you're presented with all the phrases except yours in a list. It might looks something like this: “Keep Basting Steak... Smells Mouthwatering”, “Kicking Butt Strains Sore Muscles”, “Key Board Sopping! Spilled Milk”, “Kazoo Blasting Soulful Song Melodically”. You then read through the list and vote on your favorite one. When everyone’s done voting, the votes are counted up and the player who gets the most votes wins that round. From there, the winner gets points for winning and the next round begins with a new acronym. Acrony also has some other community-building features that you may want to check including an integrated forum, message system, game statistics, optional obscene word filter, custom player-profile page, clans and groups page. So the question becomes: How funny are you?
