Pseudonumerology® is a word game or puzzle, usually
played by one person.
The object is to find the best combination of words to match a given
sequence of numbers. The rules and techniques of playing Pseudonumerology
were first described in the book: Pseudonumerology –
a word game using a Pseudonumer of phantasmagorishable (8210374695)
pseudonumes. Now most of this information is available at this web site.
There are two methods of playing Pseudonumerology.
For a short series of
numbers, up to about 14 digits long, a single pseudonume may be made. This pseudonume is
usually a silly sentence or phrase, and the best tool for making it is the Ponderous
Pseudonumer. A technique for making this type of pseudonume is explained together with
the Peewee Web Pseudonumer.
For a longer series of numbers, or when in a hurry, a single pseudonume cannot
be made. In these cases a series of pseudonumes are linked by silly mental images.
This series of images is called a phantasmagoria. Techniques for making and linking silly
images are demonstrated with examples from the number pi. and
with examples of the pseudonumes listed on the Pocket Pseudonumer.
