games, not rules
GAH! not AHA!

In other words, help me out here. I still ain't getting it. I'm the only one you've corrected (hinted), but I'm not sure whose posts are correct and whose are not.

In other other words, lay down a "how to play," or this won't be fun. And I'll take my toys and go to another park to play.

Ynot, look at the letters, not the words, there's a characteristic common among those words left of "not" which is absent from those right of "not."

Okay, so then:

Good, not fast would be right
is NOT right, am I correct? Or does "number of letters in word" count as a common characteristic?

Thanks, by the way. I see that most who posted in this thread aren't necessarily getting it, either.

Sorry, Ynot, actually you are the only one who is not getting it.

I'll PM you so that others may be left to try to figure it for themselves. That's what makes it fun!

Makes sense....seems a little oxymoronic in that a fundy should have written it, but they always were one sperm short of a loaded gun; pity that's only metaphorical.

Are you seeing a pattern here?
