Just for a change, I added a twist to this puzzle. Instead of a quote, I have given you clues as to what the animal is. The rules are the same except you must also guess the animal to win.

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.

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 consonent, 2 points for each correct vowel.

5. Only six misses are allowed in the game.

6. If you wish to guess the clues and
type of animal, send it to me via Pet Talk personal email. [This is accessible via '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 clues and the animal wins the game.

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.)

Ready?

Here are your clues:

------- ---- -- - ---- - ---- ---. - -- ------ -- ---- --- ---- -- ----. - ------ -- ---- -----. -- ---- -- ------- ---- -- ----. ---- ---- --- --- --- -- ---- --- ---. -- -------- -- ------- ------ -- - -------- ----.

What animal am I?

Oops. Casper & Kitty, you needed to wait until another person guessed before you guessed again. HOWEVER I think the way I did the replies threw you off. It looked like Randi had placed another guess. So I will leave your N as a valid guess and change the way I reply to your posts.

I'll put everyone's tallies after the puzzle in the future. This is the first time I've done puzzles like this so, please, be patient with me.
Sorry.

Now here is where we are:

-----e- -e-- -- a -ace - -nce -an. - a- ---en- -- ---- --- -e-- -- ---e. - an--e- -- -an- na-e-. -- n--e -- ------- c--e -- ---e. --n- --a- --- -a- --- -- ea-- a-e ---. -- e-e----- -- -e--ec- --an-- -- a -a-----e ----.

Current scores:
Randi E, (19) = 38, A, (14) =
28. 66 total points
Casper & Kitty C, (4) = 4,
N (9) = 9. 13 total points.
