Ladies and Gentlefurs,

Let's all get ready for the next round -- yes, Max, you're meant too...

And here it starts:

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ * _ _ * _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Zesortinge · Post by **Zesortinge** » Thu Mar 01, 2018 5:01 pm

I press E and I.

Bandit1990 · Post by **Bandit1990** » Thu Mar 01, 2018 6:11 pm

I'll start with A.

I think we're only supposed to do one guess at a time.

Saturn381 · Post by **Saturn381** » Thu Mar 01, 2018 6:14 pm

I press O.

Buster · Post by **Buster** » Thu Mar 01, 2018 6:20 pm

yeah Ze, one letter. you have to pick which one U want.

Zesortinge · Post by **Zesortinge** » Thu Mar 01, 2018 7:11 pm

I thought the rules were on the first page. Is there a more recent version of the rules that I missed?

Buster · Post by **Buster** » Thu Mar 01, 2018 7:21 pm

i don't know how long ago the rules were amended to one letter per post, just that it was before i joined as i ran afoul of that one myself early on.

NHWestoN · Post by **NHWestoN** » Thu Mar 01, 2018 9:33 pm

True.

Zesortinge · Post by **Zesortinge** » Thu Mar 01, 2018 10:21 pm

Since we are apparently only allowed to do one letter, go with the first letter I put.

Fri Mar 02, 2018 3:23 am

i think people just generally decided that guessing one at a time was smart, cause it means fewer letters guessed before you have a better idea of what you're guessing. makes it less likely you'll lose on the first round

Looking back through the topic, the first time I saw one letter per post becoming a hard and fast rule was about a quarter down page 13 by Hlaoroo. The initial post used two letters in the example and wasn't updated with the new rule. As for working your guess into a sentence, that just kinda happened recently-ish where someone did it and people bandwagoned. As for the current challenge, I press M.

Okay, but you can always edit your previous post. ^^

Champion Wallace wrote:The initial post used two letters in the example and wasn't updated with the new rule.

I'll go and amend the first post.

You missed Saturn's. I don't see a rule where you have to bold the letter, but it does make it easier.

I press I.

I press S.

Dark bold letters isn't a rule, it's just a little twist for fun. Pat and Vanna wouldn't care...

Bandit1990 · Post by **Bandit1990** » Mon Mar 05, 2018 9:58 pm

Let's try R.

NHWestoN · Post by **NHWestoN** » Tue Mar 06, 2018 8:57 pm

Gosh, yes.....

Not everything please!

NHWestoN · Post by **NHWestoN** » Wed Mar 07, 2018 5:24 pm

Let's try ... oh .... right....

Zesortinge · Post by **Zesortinge** » Wed Mar 07, 2018 9:47 pm

WestoN, I don't think you are allowed to make multiple posts with different letters. It might be allowed since I don't see a rule about it on the first page, but if it is, you shouldn't make enough posts to possibly end the game very quickly.

NHWestoN · Post by **NHWestoN** » Wed Mar 07, 2018 10:10 pm

I assume, Z, but I don't know that the only rule is you must wait for someone else to post before making another response (no two in a row). I'll back down if you think I'm violating the spirit of the game....

Buster · Post by **Buster** » Wed Mar 07, 2018 11:51 pm

no we've gotten away with the seperate posts thing plenty of times, but it's usually only used when you want to shock the pet (say, if we got Bean-Oh or Tigger) cause it almost always goes wrong.

well if he wanted to shock max he's severely out of luck. none of his guesses are wrong. (not gonna say where they go, leave that for the ones running the game)

It IS allowed to make multiple posts in one round. It's a balance between getting more letters and getting more limbs. ^^

Yeah, you need to follow the forum rules about double posting. ^^

Thanks for the info, will fix that.

.....aaaaand done.

Zesortinge · Post by **Zesortinge** » Thu Mar 08, 2018 8:07 am

Is there an F?

PS: If it is supposed to be "Hangman is difficult", you missed an I.

Buster · Post by **Buster** » Thu Mar 08, 2018 3:22 pm

Even if it isn't H is still a safe guess.

Zesortinge · Post by **Zesortinge** » Thu Mar 08, 2018 5:56 pm

Here is a C.

NHWestoN · Post by **NHWestoN** » Thu Mar 08, 2018 7:19 pm

So, "Hangman is Difficult", yes?

Fri Mar 09, 2018 3:43 am

yes it is. so hard to make a good puzzle.

The Blue Fox · Post by **The Blue Fox** » Sat Mar 10, 2018 5:54 am

Yeah, I struggle to think of a good, challenging phrase for this thread whenever I get to do it. Most of the hard english words out there have already been done, I think.

H A N G M A N * I S * D I F F _ C U L T

YES!

Congratulations for saving Max!
Please send your idea for the next challenge to Hlaoroo and me.

NHWestoN · Post by **NHWestoN** » Sun Mar 11, 2018 7:22 pm

Thanks, chums, but actually I think Zesortinge guessed the correct phrase answer before me...

Zesortinge wrote:PS: If it is supposed to be "Hangman is difficult", you missed an I.

Here is the wrote of when I said the phrase, but I didn't guess it.

Does the person who guessed the last letter needed get it, or does it go to the person who said the phrase after the last letter needed was said?

Mon Mar 12, 2018 1:44 am

it's whoever said the last letter or whoever guesses the phrase before the last letter is filled. both were you in this case.

Zesortinge · Post by **Zesortinge** » Mon Mar 12, 2018 7:14 am

I never actually guessed the phrase.

Post by **Hlaoroo** » Mon Mar 12, 2018 7:18 am

Maybe not explicitly, but you were the first to say it. And you did guess the last letter. So you're officially the winner of this round.
You don't have to come up with a phrase if you don't want to though. It's up to you.

Post by **Render** » Tue Mar 13, 2018 6:56 am

Oh, ahm... Yeah...

Looks like I've messed the game up a bit this round. Sorry.

NHWestoN · Post by **NHWestoN** » Tue Mar 13, 2018 2:09 pm

Not a rub, Render. All's right now....

Post by **Render** » Fri Mar 16, 2018 9:22 pm

So... Here we go with the next one.

_ _ _ _ * _ _ * _ * _ _ _ _ _ * _ _ _ _

Look out for the big teddy, who'll cuddle you when you shock her.
