Petspoil (love the log in name, by the way),

Sorry, by the rules (#3) my updates don't count. You need to let another contestant enter before you can submit again. Fingers crossed someone will submit something soon. Then you can guess again.

X <-- cyber 'fingers crossed'

Thank you all for playing. It's been fun. I'll be in touch with the winner and confirm she is willing to host the next game. If not, the high scorer is Audrey/Sleipner...

[tatsxxx11]

Wooo wooo!! And thanks; I'll take what's behind door # 3!!

[AmberLee]

Tatsxxx11 has agreed to host (hostess?) the next puzzle. Expect a new puzzle in the next couple days.

[tatsxxx11]

Yes, in fact it is my sad duty to report to you that I will be your next PuZzLE MeISteR(ess??) !!! Be kind! This is my first plunge into the vowel abyss!

[AmberLee]

I can't tell you how nervous I was when I first realized I'd be the next puzzle meister/ wrangler/ whatever... Once I picked a quote though, it was lots of fun. Actually got a little over-eager ( over-eager -- who me? ) Wanted to email people/ personal message visitors to PT to "come guess letters in the puzzle" ...

If I had to do it all over again, I'd set the initial thread beginning up in another program and copy and paste it in. I had the quote set up that way, but not the rules and how to contact me ... (Another boo-boo? Had to replace the underline/space convention with dashes, otherwise this program ran the underlines together and participants wouldn't have an accurate gauge of the numbers of letters in the quote.)
