Not gonna lie; I'm mildly amazed the forum has been here this long and hasn't had one of these put up yet. For those of you unfamiliar with the concept of the WAG, I'll summarize about this fine forum tradition.
A WAG, or Word Association Game, has been popular for about as long as the greater majority of the internet has existed. It varies from forum ro forum and has had spin-offs such as pwn the picture, but has remained essentially unchanged since its inception as a psychology tool. The game begins with a singular word or phrase being offered and being responded to with what comes to mind when you "hear" it. The first thought is generally best because gut reactions seldom require detailed explanations as to why you would respond the way you did, thus bogging the game down. It's appeal is generally that if you don't have time to be shooting out a post on a forum, or are waiting around for one, it still keeps the creative juices flowing, making these especially common on RP forums. ^_^
Given the nature of the forum itself, the word I will open this WAG up with is Runes. Have at it, friends.
