In this game thread, the game is to find words in the English language that are in proper forward alphabetical order, but are non-consecutive.

Example: Adept (each letter in alphabetical order, but letters non-consecutive)

Alhough the words are non-consecutive aren't they supposed to be in alphabetical order?

I agree, I thought each individual letter had to be in alphabetical order within the word. :confused:

(Could we also use double letters if they fall in order, like Add or Bill)

I agree, I thought each individual letter had to be in alphabetical order within the word. :confused:

I thought so too, also using two letters in a row like: Loop, Boot, as long as they follow the alphabet. More examples: Bet, Chimp, Art. Isn't that the way it's supposed to be played?
