Puzzle #576

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 are unable to host the next puzzle, you may pass it to the member with the next highest points)

Here’s the puzzle!

Sorry gang, there were a couple of letters I missed out on yesterday, I have corrected the puzzle now, and also the scores. Just very busy at the moment, not organised as I am usually.

We have a winner. Kokopup has submitted the correct answer.
Well done old mate ;)

Evil stalks the city of Edinburgh.
This time the threat is bigger than the crooks,
scam artists or drug dealers who find their prey in the shadows of the streets.
Some people are looking for a big time hit, a front page splash that will run
and run disfiguring countless lives for ever.
Stay Of Execution.

Good luck on the next puzzle, y'all - I'll not be participating. As I've said, my time has been limited and I'll be travelling over the next week. Half girl's trip and half business. Have a great time!
