Puzzle 206

[luckies4me]

Ok I am confused. Is it 5 guesses total per person or five for everyone....it isn't clear in the rules. And that was an added rule since when?

Anywho.... does my guess count, because I really want an R. If it doesn't count I will use it after you update.

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.


It's five guesses - period It's way too hard to try and update a whole bunch of letters at once.. As for whether it counts... It is kinda up to Nicole if she wants to do it all at once.. technically it doesn't but sometimes the moderator will let it go with a warning.

Yes well I think the rule needs to be more clear. It should say 5 guess per person or five guesses for the puzzle.

That rule never used to be there.....


I know the basic rules already. I have done and hosted lots of puzzles, just has been a while. But now I come back and there is another rule!

[Miss Meow]

I am just going to plead whichever amendment allows ignorance I've updated them all so we're ready to rock and roll again.

[luckies4me]

D please


And a big thanks for usingmy guesses! Much appreciated!

Are you calling me ignorant?

[Nomilynn]

p please

I think the rule is pretty clear myself, but ever since I have played it's been there.

She's calling herself ignorant.. as in unaware.. saying that she doesn't know and doesn't want to cause a conflict!!

at least that's how I read it.. I hope I'm not putting words in your mouth Nicole!!

No, not at all. I'm pleading ignorance for myself; I don't know what the earlier rules were, so I thought I'd just put the letters in and we could have some more guesses.

Hopefully all clear

[luckies4me]

I must have read wrong...sorry, hehe.

The pro-le- -ith elephants in the night is that the- -e-o-e in-isi-le. E-en if
-ou shine a light on the-, -ou don’t reall- see the-. Possi-l- it’s -e-ause at
night -ou need to get relati-el- -lose to things -efore -ou -an see the-, and
the -er- si-e of an elephant up -lose offers no re-ognisa-le -ie- of the -hole
ani-al. All -ou see is dar-ness.

As a rule I tried to a-oid dri-ing at night, -ut one Frida- e-ening after
attending a s-hool fun-tion -ith the girls, I had no -hoi-e -ut to dri-e ho-e
in the dar-. A-out half-a- ho-e, the -assi-e -ul- of an elephant -ull
loo-ed up rather too late in the -ea- of the headlights. He had his head
in the -ushes alongside the road and his -ehind on the tra-- dire-tl-
in front of us. I sla--ed on the -ra-es, pulling up right under the
elephant’s ru-p. His hind legs -u--led at the -nees (as usuall-
happens -hen an elephant is startled) and his enor-ous posterior -egan
des-ending onto the -onnet. -aiting for the -olossal -run-h, I -losed
-- e-es, -ut lu--il- the elephant -hanged his -ind a-out sitting do-n
and -harged off, s-rea-ing -ith -onsternation as he -rashed destru-ti-el-
through the -ush. The lands-ape shuddered. -- daughters giggled. I -as in
sho-- and -- teeth -hattered the rest of the -a- -o-e.
