  • FG: Hangman XIII:

    Continuation from the previous thread, to be found here:

    End of Hangman XII
    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

    Hangman Rules, History and Standings

    # 1. A maximum of 9 incorrect 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 letters guessed after the first two, and before an update, will be ignored, and will not carry over to the next set of guesses.
    # 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.

        Alva, we modified the rules slightly. Please correct your post.

        And I'll guess the word:

        Spike

          No, please keep up the good work.

          I've deleted the score from the second post already.

              The guesses made so far:
              Heresson: SPICE
              alva: N (ie SPINE)
              Ljube-ljcvetko: SPIKE

              And I'll add SPIRE

                  Now if only Spike would show. But remember, he can't. He was banned from accessing poly at work due to excessive usage
