I think the 10-15 minute rule is a good one. I also agree that it is a bit anoying to wait for extended periods of time for the puzzle to be updated. This is not aimed directly at anyone, but we should all think about our time constraints before hosting a puzzle. It is sooo time consuming. I also have to admit that I have posted puzzles before going to bed, and not updated them until the am (8-10 hours later ). It is a pain in the butt to have to put half the alphabet into the puzzle at once, especially when people keep guessing more. I have definately learned from this mistake .

The puzzles are so fun, when the timing is not too quick and not too slow .
