Yeah, there were a few times the "one change only" rule was overlooked or forgotten. In the interest of keeping the game fun, we kept going. We've done pretty well -- only hit a sandbar twice, I think.

>PARTY cannot become TRAMPS because that is making two changes - deleting the Y and adding the M.
you were doing fine with your examples until here..
PARTY can become TRAMP, changing the Y to M swapping the M for Y (also known as deleting the Y and adding the M). :-P PARTY cannot become TRAMPS because that is making two changes - changing Y to M swapping M for Y and adding S!
(this is why I stressed that changing makes for an ambiguous count - I should try to be more ron and less ambiguous!)
