MONTLY?Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God? - Epicurus

Incorrect word guesses haven't added to the total, before, have they? I thought only letters did, but incorrect guesses just meant that person could no longer take part this round.
Also, if it's bolded, it's done, IMHO.Last edited by Drogue; April 27, 2004, 07:07.Smile

Look at the rules:
1. 10 guesses.3. Any guesses after 2 have occured since the last update will be ignored.Smile

Furthermore, since it only says:
5. You can guess the word at any time, but guessing incorrectly eliminates you from play.
6. The winner must post the rules (along with any changes) when presenting the next word.
In usual hangman, they count, but then in usual hangman, they don't eliminate you either.Smile

It's simple. As things started a word guess was a guess and was treated like any other guess in that you couldn't participate in 2 consecutive rounds. Then someone suggested that it wasn't fair for someone that correctly guessed a letter to not be able to follow up, so we altered it to being able to guess the word at any time, regardless of whether 2 guesses had already been made that round, or whether you had chosen a letter too recently. If the word guess is incorrect you are not allowed to participate further for that game.
It's obvious that word guesses must count as using up a life, otherwise people could just sit there all day guessing words not letters. It doesn't say explicitly that you lose a life, but it's obvious, and it's the way we have done it since the start.
The result stands. There is one guess remaining.
