PUZZLE 465


Attention new players! Read the rules before you join, please, and be prepared to host the next if you win!

These are the rules:

1. You may only guess one letter at a time.

2. After you have guessed a letter, you must wait for another player to guess a letter before you can go again. (see also rule #9)

3. The host of the game responding to a guess does not count as a turn. Should you choose a letter, then receive a response from the member host, you must wait for the next member to guess a letter.

4. One point will be awarded for each correct letter, 2 points for vowels.

5. Only six misses are allowed in the game.

6. If you wish to guess the phrase, send it to me via Pet Talk Private message. (This is accessible via the 'PM' or 'Profile' buttons on any of my posts). DO NOT post it on the forum. If you wish to guess a letter, post it on the forum.

7. You must have submitted a correct letter to submit your solution. Unlike letters, if you submit a wrong solution, you are disqualified from continuing in that puzzle.

8. The player who correctly guesses the phrase wins the game. If no one has guessed it correctly after six misses, then the player with the most points wins the game.

9. Only 5 guesses allowed in total until the host updates the puzzle. Any guess after 5, before the next update, won't be counted as a guess. And as always, someone else has to guess a letter before you can guess another letter.

And here is what you win ... you get to create the next puzzle.

(Should you win the game and do not care to host the next puzzle, you may pass it to the member with the next highest points)

Here is the puzzle –

I'll take a stab at it.

Moesha has it -

Years before I ever heard of Lake Placid or the Olympics, before I knew the name of a single Russian hockey player, I was a kid in Massachusetts who wanted to be the next Bobby Orr.

Jim Craig


I hope she will do the next puzzle.

I got this quote from a book written about the 1980 USA hockey team that won the gold medal in the Lake Placid Olympics. Jim Craig was the goalie on that team.

As far I can tell, that quote is not on line - anywhere. That was my twist.

I'm taking a break from puzzles for awhile. Have fun :)

Ummm....I'd like to take credit, but I didn't sent in a guess....

Moesha, did she mean you?

Grace

Ummm....I'd like to take credit, but I didn't sent in a guess....

Moesha, did she mean you?

Yes, I did mean her. I just now re-read that PM and saw I had credited the wrong person. I have profusely apologized to Moesha, and begged her forgiveness.

Hopefully she will do the next one.

Think I know what happened. I read your post, Maggie, where you said you had the quote, but needed the name. Then I got Moesha's PM, and she wasn't sure, even then, that she had the correct name. I put the two together, and goofed. :confused:

I do need to take a break http://bestsmileys.com/umbrellas/3.gif

Moesha
07-30-2009, 10:07 PM
I'll do the next one.
