Yeah, I think it would work better that way. I believe, on average, vowels tend to occur more than consonants, so that someone who guesses a vowel is more likely to have the highest number of letters over someone who guesses a consonant, so allowing vowels to count would make it likely that the same person keeps getting the highest letter count. In practice I don't think it would matter that much since our games are going so quickly, but still...

I'm actually okay with the puzzles going quickly. I think it's a happy medium between the games that take forever and the ones that are resolved/continued in the next post.

I agree that's a good way to go. Consecutive vowel guesses will be too revealing, which is good in porn mags but not on this game tongue

And I agree, the pacing in this game is just about right smile

This is a good idea, as the time zone differences are also biting me in the ass.

Preemptive S, please smile

Blacula, Ibby and Cali all had incorrect letter guesses, so no vowels allowed next round! So no S, T or N.

(I understand the reasoning for preemptive guesses, but this can happen if you do! tease )

I think Paladin was typing his response when you guessed and thus did not see your guess.

Since I think it's *very* likely that "B" is actually correct, I'll give Stalgie the chance to guess before I do.

That's exactly what happened. I didn't notice that Kappa had put an entry in as I was creating that update. I saw somewhere he was going on a flight, so I thought it was perfectly likely he would be too preoccupied to post a letter. Silly me! wink

Here's a corrected update without Quis's last guess:


Category: Occupation

B L _ C _ _ _ C _

D E _ L E R


EDE-D(1)
Quis-F(0)
Blacula-C(2)
Ibby-E(2)
Kappa-B(1)

Blacula may guess a vowel, consonant or attempt to solve. EDE, Kappa or Ibby may guess a consonant or attempt to solve. Quis and anyone else may guess a consonant.


Incorrect letters: S T N M P F


If none of the eligible posters solve this correctly, I will count Quis's guess on the next update.
