Puzzle 212

[Karen]

Puzzle 211

Here 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 email - [email protected]. 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 your puzzle play to the member with the next highest points)

[Karen]

The Cymric is the long haired form of the Man- and, as such, it is
distinguished by a similar absence of tail. There are three different
forms: Rum-y Cymrics ha-e no trace of a tail, but -ust a hollo- at the
base; Stum-ies ha-e some -ertebrae -resent in this area; the Longie has a
tail that is only slightly shorter than that of other breeds.

I'm expecting guesses at the puzzle, here, folks ...

[luckies4me]

I sent a guess to your PM Karen, thnaks!:D

[Karen]

luckies4me got it - it was:


The Cymric is the long-haired form of the Manx and, as such, it is
distinguished by a similar absence of tail. There are three different
forms: Rumpy Cymrics have no trace of a tail, but just a hollow at the
base; stumpies have some vertebrae present in this area; the Longie has a
tail that is only slightly shorter than that of other breeds.

******
Now, has anyone ever seen a Cymric? It's pronounced KUM-Ric, by the way!

[NoahsMommy]

No, I haven't seen one...I bet they are neat looking. Do you have any pictures???

[luckies4me]

They look like tailess Main Coons, very beautiful! I know tons about tailess things, as I breed rats and the tailess gene is similar in cats. :)
