Chinese Whispers



A few years back there was among participants on this list
a game of Chinese whispers. The game administrator selects
an English sentence and sends it off to participant A, and
a Lojban sentence and sends it off to participant Z. A
translates it into Lojban and sends it on to B. Z translates
into English and sends it on to Y. And so on. Each participant
is allowed a week or so to do the translation. Eventually,
the message finds its way past each participant to the
organizer, who posts a summary of how each sentence fared
through the iterated translations.

If anyone wishes to participate, or, eocai, to volunteer to
be the summarizer and/or initiator, or to offer some suitably
short but taxing English & Lojban sentences, then email me.
If I get enough interest then I'll post a further announcement
to the list.
