You can play as you wish, but, with limericks, The first two lines rhyme, The third and fourth lines rhyme
The fifth line rhymes with or repeats the first line
2/ Limericks can be fun. They also are our least played games. Either way, I hope you don't mind the pointer, or homework. lol.
Occassionally, people ask for limerick games. An easy way to remember limericks, is, roughly, limericks, The first two lines rhyme, The third and fourth lines rhyme
The fifth line rhymes with or repeats the first line
Over an Hour into tonight's game and we are approaching 500 game plays.

This is @paul. I started @hashtaggames #HashTagGames back when the major Twitter to Fediverse waves started in fall 2022 & have put out over 750 nightly games as a fun distraction. I never expected it to grow as it has.
When I first got #Parkinsons Plus, a doctor "prescribed" tasks that brought me joy and distraction, because fretting over my struggles, problems & negative all the time created further brain damage that is irreversible and would affect my condition worse.
She said even just a few minutes will stop some damage.
So, even if you don't feel like it, stopping by a few minutes every day, anytime of the day, & contributing to the game by creating a fun hashtag game play, could be beneficial.
No one tries to sell anything, there's no marketing angle– just people around the world putting out a "ha ha" for one moment in time every day
Please join us.
Please boost.
