1. Write all names as you should- italic, first letter capital
2. Please write larger explanations
3. Let's try to find important stuff(don't do like us mods and say Entamoeba coli
A protozoan )

Rules? OK. Enjoy your game then. I'm not that clever to give large explanations.
By the way, Entamoeba coli is nothing more than a protozoan to me.
Whatever, have a nice game.

Salmonella typhi funnily enough this is the bacteria which causes Typhoid Fever.

Oh, come on Ozge.. You know that i didn't mean any harm. It's just that i'd like everyone to actually learn something from this game. I mean, probably Entamoeba coli is not that important, but noone will remember it unless someone writes something about it. I just wanted to keep everything nice and educational. Sorry if i upset you... Please forgive me..
We wouldn't want to lose such a good player as yourself..

By the way, wasn't Salmonella typhi already mentioned?

[Poison]

Yes I know you didn't mean any harm. Those short explanations are probably a result of my education. I mean we only memorize names. ( By the way I will have to memorize 144 (minimum) insect names this term- awfull... ) Having further info about them means probably a brain explosion or something.

[MrMistery]

I don't think so... For me, it's a lot harder to memorise something without actually knowing what it is and what it does... Understanding always helps you remember something... I reccomend the same thing with those insect names: learn something, at least 1-2 lines about each insect, look at a picture, anything to actually add utility to your learning

PS: why on Earth would anyone ask you to learn something without even knowing what it is?!

PPS: So, what exactly is Entamoeba coli

[Squawkbox]

ok i change it if you dont like repetition and theres not a lot you can say about bacteria except the infection they cause but this is a good one
Streptomyces coelicolor
This is a bacterium which lives in the soil and gives soil that smell that it has...it is specieal because where most bacteria have a single stranded circular chromosome, Streptomyces coelicolor has a single stranded linear chromosome

PS: why on Earth would anyone ask you to learn something without even knowing what it is?!

I have no idea about that. Oh, wait a minute, we know about them, they are "insects".

PPS: So, what exactly is Entamoeba coli

From wikipedia:

Entamoeba coli is a non-pathogenic species of entamoebid that is important clinically in humans only because it can be confused with Entamoeba histolytica, which is pathogenic, on microscopic examination of stained stool specimens. A simple finding of Entamoeba coli trophozoites or cysts in a stool specimen requires no treatment.


Systematics:

Kingdom: Protista

Phylum: Amoebozoa

Order: Entamoebida

Genus: Entamoeba

Species: E. coli


PS: Is it OK, Andrew? If not I will prepare a PhD thesis about that for you.
