Puzzle #37

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) http://PetoftheDay.com/talk/smile.gif

A, please!

Thanks for doing the puzzle, Rottie. I'm going to throw in one letter, but I'm off tomorrow for a 4 day trip, and I'm sure someone will guess it before that.
I would like a "D", please. I'll leave those high value vowels for someone else.
Hope you have a great time at the show.
Logan
