Puzzle 96
Deli, I hope you don't mind, I began Puzzle 96...
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 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 my email,[email protected] 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.
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)
Here is the puzzle (and it's by one of my fav. authors! :) ):

OOPS! I just realized that I broke the rules!! SORRY! It's not my turn to ask, someone else can go....
-
I would like a "T" please.
-
-

Ok--now I'm confused lol!!!
Jennifert's guess was out of turn.
Fuzzy317, you've already guessed T.
Evelyn, Y has already been guessed by ShepherdLover.
And Gepansy there are no C's.
ACK! Help! ;) :confused:
Correct me if I am wrong but...I *THINK* this is the correct point totals thus far:
Fuzzy317 = 23
Karen = 38
ShepherdLover = 25
Evelyn1157 = 14
Gepansy = 7, 1 miss
Jennifert = 6
-
Can I guess "H" now? SORRY for causing confusion!!!
I just realized that this sound like I'm being sarcastic...But I'm not! I am sorry. I didnt' mean for it to sound that way but I jsut reread it and it sounds bad. OOPS. :D

Congrats to Fuzzy317!
the answer:
To see a world in a Grain of Sand
And Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour.
