Re: Games, Riddles, Puzzles, and other Distractions

Ok, I'm pretty happy with this. You would think with that many letters on first guess it would be easy, but I wanted to get it in two, so I didn't guess till I was sure.

Re: Hamas' "50th Anniversary" Attack on Israel

I also think the people of Gaza have a responsibility to help Israel find the hostages and stop the terrorists. Doing so would only help themselves. If there are terrorists hiding in my neighborhood, and an army is coming to kill those terrorists, I am absolutely helping that army to finish the tas...

Re: Games, Riddles, Puzzles, and other Distractions

No I play too, but I don't tend to post my scores. Do you have the same issues, Alatar? Do you have tips for managing the challenge of different English word spellings?

I wondered about posting a warning that today's word uses American spelling - but am I the only non-American here that plays this game?
