Word Meld 6 (Posted on 2003-09-04) Difficulty: 3 of 5
Here is another word meld puzzle, where you change one letter at a time, making a good word each time. For example: NOT to NET by changing the O to an E, then NET to SET by changing the N to an S.

Try these two:

GAMER   GAMER

RULES   TIRED
Remember, the less obscure the words the better.
