Puzzle 179

[Fuzzy317]

Here are the rules (Please pay attention to Rule #9):

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 Pet Talk personal email. [This is accessible via the 'PM' or 'Profile' buttons on any of my posts.]
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 10 guesses allowed in total until the host updates the puzzle. Any guess after 10, before the next update, won't be counted as a guess. Of course, someone else has to guess before you can go again.

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)

Here is the puzzle:

- ---- --- --- - ---'- -------- ----- --- --- --- --- --- --- ------ --- --.

i would love to host puzzle 180.(just found some great new quotes!! would love to post for you guys!!!)
however, i can only be on for a little while in the a.m....maybe 6 to 6:30a.m....then i have to work...won't be back on till 8 or so tomorrow night....if this is too long a gap, i say lets' ask rottieluver if she has more time and would like to do....
you guys let me know....i'll put one up at 6 tomorrow morning if you want me too.....have to turn in tonight as i have to work...

thanks,
deli dog

I say we be patient and let delidog host Puzzle 180 when they can. Rule #9 makes allowances for a host not being able to update at every moment.

[Fuzzy317]

Final score for Puzzle 179:

popcornbird = 32 points
Rottieluver45 = 18 points
delidog = 14 points + correct guess
Ann = 10 points
sammi = 7 points
Cincy’sMom = 3 points

If delidog passes on hosting the next puzzle, hosting of the next puzzle would go down the point list from highest down.

[delidog]

my apologies....i didn't see that popcornbird had more points...i'll be back at 8 tonight...i'll put a new puzzle up then....sorry, i overslept this a.m......
see you guys tonight
