To newcomers: Read the rules before you join in, please!

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 consonant, 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] or a PM).
(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 not care to host the next puzzle, you may pass your puzzle me to
the next highest scorer)


Here's the puzzle:

------- --- ------, ---- ---- -- --- ---
-- ------ ----- -----. --- ----- ---- --
-------- ---- -- ------, --- --- -----, ---
--- ---- --- -- --------- * - ---- --- ---- ---- ---- --- ---!

You can still send in a guess if you don't want to host, it will then go to the highest-totalled person!


micki76 sent in a guess, but forgot to fill in one letter ... so close!

Turtles and whales, they live in the sea
My little brown bunny, she lives with me
Giraffes live in Afri-a, and San Diego, too
See them run in Es-ondido * I like the -ark more than the -oo!

Koxka got it! It was:

Turtles and whales, they live in the sea
My little brown bunny, she lives with me
Giraffes live in Africa, and San Diego, too
See them run in Escondido * I like the park more than the zoo!


Escondido is where the San Diego Wild Animal Park is, and the animals like giraffes have lots of room to run! :)
