Ok maybe not a game per 'se but a way for us to excercise the strongest muscle in our body... our minds. Also to have some fun with words.
We see lots of quotes and sometimes we have a better way of saying it or a way of twisting it around. I got the idea from the Ask Marilyn column in a sunday paper supplement. She takes a famous quote and asks her readers to come up with something funnier, wittier or wiser or whatever.
Example:
"He who never made a mistake, never made anything". ~ Joseph Conrad
readers replied with;
"He who never made a mistake, should keep that to himself."
"He who never made a mistake, never took algebra."
"He who never made a mistake, will make an excellent ex-husband"
So starting with the above quote by Conrad we'll go for a week and then add another quote and take a week for inputs before going to the next quote and so on. BUT! As MT-ers/MA-ists we should (try to) tailor the quotes to Martial Arts!

"He who never made a mistake, never made anything" ~ Joseph
Conrad.

He who never made a mistake, ought to try using nunchukus for the first time.

He who has never made a mistake, has no children
He who has never made a mistake, has never been asked "does this make me look fat?"

He who has never made a mistake, is lying about their last test
He who has never made a mistake, never got on the mat in the first place

LOL! Along that same line:

He who has never made a mistake, has never uttered the phrase, "Here, hold my beer while I try something."

He who never made a mistake has never learned anything

Ah, you beat me to it. That's my favorite.

how about this:

"He who never made a mistake never argued with a woman."

and the ultimate:

"He Who Never Made A Mistake is obviously Chuck Norris."
