What is Kawasaki?

It's a make of motorbike, so according to your rules, it's disqualified...

Koi is the name of the fish. I think that is the Japanese name, but not sure. Also known as goldfish.

from wiki

koi, pronounced IPA: [kɔɪ]) are ornamental domesticated varieties of the common carp Cyprinus carpio, originated from China and widely spread in Japan. They are very closely related to goldfish and, in fact, the style of breeding and ornamentation has become very similar, probably through the efforts of Japanese breeders to emulate goldfish.

I understand (from Tareq's first post) that the primary subject in each contribution should start with the next letter in the alphabet, there's less scope for interpretation in this thread (which is a good thing).

Therefore, the fish shot is dubious, since there's more vegitation than fish on show.

This game is not going be any fun if you have to check each letter, lol. Just give guidance as the game is played and people will get better at it as time goes on. If you fuss too much in the beginning, no one will come back. Just my opinion. :)

I forgot to write as rule that all shots should be under english words, i can tell that Kimono is a japanese word but in English translition you can't find right word, so before we go farther more, should i accept those NON-English words in this game?
I want to keep this game more specific because with non-english words that means alot of unknown shots will be posted and i will ask many times about the meaning, so answer me fast.

Agree, I want to see the subject the latter begin with so clear, what is the point to shoot a shadow or far snapshot or many elements that will hide the real focus subject?

If people here see that this game is not fun anymore then i am sorry to posted it, you can stop playing and better to delete it.

Most people in America know what Koi is, so I didn't really consider that a foreign word. Same with Kawasaki. But up to you about banning foreign words. But that leaves out most of American English because it all came from somewhere else. :lol:

I think its a fine game, its just that most of us are not used to strict rules and being double-checked. Again, that is just my opinion, the more rule-oriented people might like it better the way you are doing it now. So just wait and see, I guess.
