The Random Word Service, shortened to RWS, is a popular and fun service run by {{S|User|ToastUltimatum}} that can be employed on [[SmashWiki:IRC|SmashWiki IRC]], and SmashWiki itself, albeit discouraged, due to conflicts with [[SW:TALK]]. The service, however, comes with a specific ruleset that must be followed.

===Role reversal===
A role reversal is a rarity, but on occasion, ToastUltimatum may type another user's nickname in capital letters, most oftenly {{S|User|Captain Falcon}}. If he does this, the user in question must provide ToastUltimatum with a random word, after which he will type "hi".

===Role receival===
A role receival is the basic premise of two users that are not ToastUltimatum imitating the Random Word Service. This is perfectly legal.

*Do not stall the RWS. In this context, stalling means refusing to type "hi" for a long period of time after having received a random word. If one simply fails to notice that they have received a random word, they must clarify this.

*If one breaks a rule of the RWS on IRC, and does not care about being temporarily banned from the Random Word Service, {{S|User|ReiDemon}} will kick the offender from IRC.

*Excessive usage of the RWS can result in a user not receiving any more random words that day. The hypothetical reasoning for this is that "they will not be able to drive home if they have too many random words".

*If one employs the service on SmashWiki talk pages, try to consider [[SW:TALK]], and one must still sign their comment.
