This is a very simple and fun game. The first person makes a wish, and each following person finds some way to corrupt the wish and then makes a new wish. For example:

Person 1. I wish I had a dog

Person 2. You have a dog, but it dies the day after you get it

I wish I had a muffin

Person 3: You get a muffin, but you drop it and have to throw it away.

And so on.

Your firt wish to corrupt is this:

I wish I had a new car.

Smilies now work on the Sleuth Forums :)
Unfortunately the coding involved wore Ben out so thuroughly that he decided to quit doing sleuthy thing and instead go on to become a movie star. Apptly nick-named The God of Sleuthing!
So us poor sleuthers have to be content with sleuth as it is and only the tantalizing remnants of an unfinished Shades of Mystery to look at. Remembering the golden years when Ben was allowing us to catch bad guys on the internet instead of catching bad guys himself on the silver screen.

Oh well. You can't have everything.

I wish everything I did always worked out the way I wanted it too.

Dec-6-2007 12:48

Granted! Everything you do now works out exactly as you wanted to!

Unfortunately it does not take long for you to get bored with always having your way.

You become rich, powerful, successfull and BORED beyoned belief.
There are no longer any challenges, no surprises.

Life is dull and now you wish that you have never wished your wish in the first place.



I wish my husband would not always use complicated english.

Your husband no longer uses complicated English. Instead, he uses very simple phrases like:

"Gimmie a beer!"
"Move yer butt!"
"PPPPPPPPPPPT!!!! HAHAHA! Dat was a good fart!"

You essentially become his eternal slave, because you feel so guilty you made him this way you can't bear to leave him.

I wish that my Niagra Falls pen worked!!! GRRRRRR, IT'S SO ANNOYING!!!!! :-)

PLEASE!!! this is a funny thread, please don't let it die!

Dec-14-2007 13:39

OK OK I hear your cries and agree. I love this thread too.

So your Niagara Falls pen is working again... great! But too great... as it is now haunted by a ghost :O So it's writing everything the Ghost wants and somehow found its way to your checkbook... now you just spent 3000 on a used car for the haunted pen. Good times!

I wish I can get the first choice in my shift bid at work.

Dec-16-2007 10:52

Yoou get your first choice in what shift you work, but one of your co-worker is extremely jealous and is going after you for revenge!!
(I don't rely mean that it'd be awesome if you got your first choice)

I wish could have all the benefits of a subsciption without having one.

(good luck!)

You get the benefits of a subscription, but your detective is retired.

I wish the Melbourne Victory would win a game of football (soccer).

Dec-16-2007 20:20

Melbourne Victory wins but you get bad seats so you don't see the winning goal!


I wish i had a laptop!

Dec-17-2007 00:05

Oh, you get your laptop alright- but it's THE LAPTOP OF DOOM!!! Everytime you attempt to type something on it, it tries to bite your fingers- OUCH!

I wish I was really good at Guitar Hero 3 :(

Dec-17-2007 11:43

You are no amazing at Guitar Hero 3, however you have spent so much time improving your skills, you are no longer employed and are about to be evicted.

I wish Christmas was over
