Now, since there are 3 guesses left, I still have to wait for another guess, right?

[joncha]

That's a gray area in the rules. Dealer's choice, I'd say.

[Kuciwalker]

I'll wait

[DrSpike]

I have noticed this grey area too. We should plug it, one way or the other.

Rules

• 1. A maximum of 10 guesses.
• 2. Updates must be posted within 24 hours of each other, and will occur in sets of 2, except for the final 2 guesses, which will be updated individually. An update must also occur after each word guess.
• 3. Any guesses after 2 have occured since the last update will be ignored.
• 4. You can only pick one letter for every two consecutive sets of guesses.
• 5. Guesses cannot be changed after being posted.
• 6. You can guess the word at any time, but guessing incorrectly eliminates you from play.
• 7. Incorrect word guesses also count as losing a life.
• 8. Words must be 5 or more letters.
• 9. Words must be standard english, and cannot be proper nouns.

_ a _ _ l e

1 guess

Wow, I really didn't think it was that hard of a word. I thought you'd get it after the a, l, and e (or get close).

[Jonny]

Several options available, but what the heck:

haggle

[Kuciwalker]

It was 'gaggle'

I was scared you guy would guess a 'g' and suddenly get it.
