Wikipedia:Department of Fun/Word Association/Implosive Grid: Difference between revisions

The reverse of Explosive Grid. Instead of starting at the center of the main grid, associating radially outwards to the four corners, and starting new Radial games at each corner, you start with four Reverse Radial games, associating to the yellow square at the center of each. The words in the yellow squares (which must be bold, by the way) then serve as the starting words for the respective corners of the main game, and, again, you associate inwards from there to the center. It’s like Condensive Grid, except starting with four Reverse Radial games rather than four Ultra games.

Game #2 can be seen here. Its starting grids started with Clonmel, Dorcas Makgato-Malesu, Trade unions in Christmas Island, and Ilag (collapsed to Her Majesty’s Prison Service); New South Wales Act 1823, Mount Cook National Park, Australia, Kotte Electoral District, and Eunidia jeanneli (collapsed to American English); Sama TV, Maurice Le Roux, Saint-Vincent-sur-Oust, and Carlos Francisco Martins Pinheiro (collapsed to Christianity in Gaul); and Kambar-e Baqer, Ruth Herbert Lewis, Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel, and Begonia Belle Stakes (collapsed to Fire in ancient Iranian culture). The main grid collapsed inwards to Biological immortality.
