Hello, Zodai here!

This is an introduction the The Acronym Game!

Basically, let's start with the word TAG

T.A.G

Then, you make an Acronym out of it.

The Acronym Game

Then, the next person makes an Acronym out of the last word of yours.

I'll start:

Great Armadas Make Elephants.

Your use of "GAME" is NOT an acronym.

The suffix 'nym' means 'name'.

Your thing is just a nonsense statement -rather than a name for something.

An acronym is the name of an entity ( a government agency, a corporation, a political party, a beauracacracy, etc) in which the inititials are subsitituted for the name - and in which the initials are pronounced as a word.

NASA, NATO, and NIMBY, are well known acronyms.

If you took the word 'GAME' and constructed the name of a fictious entity out of it -then that would be an acronym.

Well, it's generally the closest thing I could find to the point. And it seems everyone gets the rules anyway.

Just please try and keep track of who's to use. Remember, the last word of the previous post!

Again-none of the last several posts have been "acronyms".

They are acro-sentences.

Constructing an actual fictional acronym is much harder.

But okay lets do acro-sentences then.
