Here's puzzle number 627! - Enjoy!

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)

Below is the puzzle.

- ---'- ------- --- --- -------- -- --- ---- ------.
~ ---- ------

*there is an apostrophe in the second word.

Letters to guess:

ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ

Have fun!

Catty1- S was already called and there isn't one. Can I give you another letter? (waiting impatiently -- you are all so close! I'm sure you will get it very soon!)

Corrected because I forgot to delete the S in post #16:

I'll send a guess!

I'm going to give it to Mayor Karen because I made a mistake. In the last two of my posts (#18 and #21) I dropped a dash from the 6th word. The quote is by Rick Warren, who's the pastor of Saddleback Church in California and the author of the book "The Purpose-Driven Life". The quote is: "I can't imagine God not allowing my dog into heaven." There should have been six dashes for the 6 remaining letters in "allowing", but I made a mistake and only had five. So, Karen's guess was "I can't imagine God not letting my dog into heaven", which would have been the right number of letters even though there should have been more T's. I goofed it up either way... I apologize. :o:o

The quote gives me a lot of comfort about whether pets have a place in heaven. I've also read a quote from Rev. Billy Graham about our pets being in heaven when we get there. I hope that's true because I want to give hugs to a lot of PT dogs, cats and pets! One Fine Day :love:

Thank you,
