The Game (not that Game)

[PanNarrans]

I beg to know, do those who dwell in this place know of The Game? I write not of the game which is lost if one should think of it; that game is now stale and those who play it dull.
The Game has but one rule I may state: you must just learn the game, and then jump in and play it!
Whilst this does not sound hard, it can be so at times, for the game has two rules, yet I can not state the other lest I break it. Should you join in the game, you will find much of what you wish to say marred by this rule; one must think hard to say what they wish while still in the game!
If you grasp how the game is played, join and play the game with me! Should you fail at first, fret not; I shall point it out and you may yet catch on.
Should you be able to explain rule two of the game yet leave it whole, please do not make it too clear, lest those of us who have worked it out may not laugh at those who have not. ;D

i lost the game

if this is the game of which you speak then all members on this sight do know it. ^^

Once more I state: '' I write not of the game which is lost if one should think of it; that game is now stale and those who play it dull.''
But though you don't seem to know of the game, in your post you broke its rules just once. Try some more and you might get the hang of it.

I have just one thing to say, and my statement consists of three simple letters.

Gasp! Though you say you meant to speak thrice, in your post you broke the rules not less than four times.
Know that I have yet to break the rules; should you parse my posts, and think with care, you may yet find the key.

[Takeshi]

I am still confused... But continue, my friend, to inform me of my rule-breaking, for I believe I am onto something, though I know not quite what it is.

[PanNarrans]

I see you now try to speak as I speak, but though you have the gist of how I sound, you have not found the cause. I fear you have oft broke the rules with your last post.
But fret not! For the nonce your speech is not as the rules would wish it to be, yet in your first post you gave a few hints, should you read your words in ways you did not mean them to be read.
I shall not point out just where, though. That would be too... nice. This should be quite hard to work out, and I should not let you have the key with such ease.
But where are the rest? The game, like most things, is more fun with more folks. Join in!

When you speak of my "first post", do you refer to my very first post on this thread, or the first post in which I attempted to play by the rules of this game you try to teach without speaking of the second rule?

[PanNarrans]

I speak of your first post in this thread, in which you did well! Quite well, at least. This game makes me laugh more and more - the rules are not hard at all to grasp, but hard to spot.
The game can be quite cruel to long posts; you may have to think hard about what you want to say. So I think it would make it fair if I were to make my posts as long as I can, and make it less hard for you spot the rules. I think you will get it soon, and laugh with me - just look hard at the words I type, and how weird my speech sounds as I try not to say words banned by Rule Two.
I feel cruel to play the game with just you, Mix - I feel for you as you think hard to try and find the rules. It can be fun to work it out!
Fret not: if you do not work it out soon, and more people do not join in, I will give you a big hint.

[Takeshi]

I fear that if I continue to play whilst attempting to decode your speech, my head might well implode.

[PanNarrans]

But in that post you broke the rules only four times! You can do well!
I hope that my speech is not too hard to read, but the rules mean that I can not use many words I would like to, or phrase things in a way I would like to.
Here is the hint I said I would give you:

one

That is all.

[Takeshi]

I fear that your clue has confused me more than it has clarified anything at all.

[PanNarrans]

OH NOES I BROKE THE RULES
Last post, first line. Oh well.

[Takeshi]

Scandal! How do you expect us to learn the rules to your game if you even break the rules yourself?

[PanNarrans]

Just once! And since I have told you where, you could look there and see what is odd. This, at last, could be the clue you need!
