Puzzle 267

[Karen]

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 me via a Private Message or email me at [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.

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 if you win, you get to host the next puzzle!


Here's the (hopefully a real puzzler to solve) puzzle!

(Note - I fixed some typos from the last round, the "counts" were correct, just my typing was off (hence the Ds that appear when no one has guessed that letter - the "d" key being next to the "s" key, for example) ... but I think it's all fixed now!, sorry about that!)
