To decypher people who were not there should investigate the cross product of the two sets from the rhyming dictionary*.

{bramah, cama, comma, dama, drama, fama, gama, groma, hama, kama, lama, mamma, rama, sama, schama, slama, somma, tama}
x
{aims, ames, blames, claims, crames, dames, frames, games, grames, haimes, hames, haymes, james, maims, names, rhames, sames, shames, tames}

There are actually 342 unique ordered pairs we can create, but many are unlikely.

From the first set I like {comma, drama, mamma}.

From the last set I like {games} very much, but {aims, dames, frames, names} are also possible.

I really hope it is "comma games" because I have always wanted a game based on punctuation. (Only mostly kidding. As is apparent above I love things everyone else finds boring. My players are concerned that I will write a long campaign arc about a 0.40 USD accounting discrepancy similar to Cliff Stoll in The Cuckoo's Egg).

* Nota bene: I only accepted rhymes that matched the number of syllables in drama and flames respectively. The sets are much larger if polysyllabic words are admitted, but I think that is unlikely.
