GAME: Pokemon Hangman v.61 (MA)

[mr_pikachu]

ANNOUNCEMENT: mr_pikachu has created a Pokémon randomizer that will help you pick a Pokémon when it is your turn to post a puzzle. This will help make sure that every Pokémon will have an equal oppourtunity of coming up. Here is the link to it: The Official Pokémon Hangman Randomizer (http://pokemon-randomizer.greatnow.com/randomizer.html)

ANNOUNCEMENT: Randomizer Update! If you select an Unown plushie using the Official Pokémon Hangman Randomizer, it will also name what Unown form has been selected in parentheses, like "UNOWN (A), BURMY Steel." Don't include this extra letter, extra word, or extra symbol in the puzzle, however. Just tell the winner what the form is when you award the plushie!

I'm sure we've all played hangman when you're bored, or at least heard of it. Pokemon Hangman was first created by Mist who is associated with the Charmander Central Club in giving out "plushies" as prizes for people who guessed correctly. People began big collections of these "plushies" when this game was first introduced to PCG, and I hope that people will extend their big collections, or even start them, today.

Rules
Newest rules in Light Yellow

The rules of Hangman are fairly straight-forward. If you don't know them, then watch a few people post and we're sure you'll get the hang of it. *sigh*

But we do have specific rules that we need to follow to make the game slightly trickier. You may only post a maximum of THREE single letter guesses per person before you must guess the name of the Pokemon. This rule is subject to change. But for now it's THREE and only THREE single letter guesses per person, per round. This shouldn't be too hard to follow. If you notice someone that has made more than three single letter guesses then you should be smart and tell them so. :rolleyes:

On each new puzzle, no player may guess a vowel (A, E, I, O, or U) until they have guessed at least one consonant. However, anyone may make Pokemon guesses before guessing a consonant.

When someone guesses the word correctly it is their turn to think of a Pokemon for others to guess. Please make sure you don't mess up for other people's sake - Double check to see if a letter is present in the Pokemon's name you're doing before you post to avoid mistakes. Also, if it's your turn, try and pick a Pokemon that hasn't already been done. You don't need to always pick evolved forms. The rarity of each plushie should remain the same so we have a nice mix. You may only win a maximum of three plushies per day - This is to prevent a certain group of people called plushie hogs grabbing all the stuff every second turn. (Each person’s “day” depends on the time listed in their forum profile. Each new day begins at midnight.)

If you win three plushies you may still play, however if you win after you've exceeded the limit you must either A) Give the plushie to someone else who is less fortunate or B) Do not take the plushie as a prize. Just make sure everyone has a fair go too!

Legendaries can be won here, but only a worker may give them out. Anyone else may not. If this were possible we'd have legendaries popping up everywhere, and they deserve a rarity. Specialized plushies may also be won here, like a Shiny Claydol, or a Pikachu with a Blue Scarf... the list continues, and only the workers may give them out. You won't know if you've won one of these very rare plushies until you win the plushie.

The only Pokemon that aren't allowed to be done by the players here are: Zapdos, Articuno, Moltres, Mew, Mewtwo, Lugia, Ho-oh, Celebi, Raikou, Suicune, Entei, Regirock, Regice, Registeel, Jirachi, Deoxys, Groudon, Kyogre, Latios, Latias, Rayquaza, Uxie, Azelf, Mesprit, Heatran, Regigigas, Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, Cresselia, Phione, Manaphy, Darkrai, Shaymin and Arceus. All others are fine.

Some Pokemon have unusual characters in their names. The following is a guide to show how we display those Pokemon in Hangman puzzles:

*Ho-oh - HOOH(4 letters)
Mr. Mime - MRMIME(6 letters)
Mime Jr. - MIMEJR(6 letters)
Porygon Two - PORYGON2(8 letters)
Porygon Z - PORYGONZ(8 letters)
Nidoran Female - NIDORANF(8 letters)
Nidoran Male - NIDORANM(8 letters)
Farfetch'd - FARFETCHD(9 letters)

* - Since Ho-oh is a legendary, only a worker may give it out. But this could be useful if you see a worker giving a four-lettered puzzle.

You are allowed a maximum of TEN incorrect guesses before it's Game Over, not per person, that includes everyone's incorrect guesses. Usually people guess the name before the ten incorrect guesses so don't worry. If no one guesses the Pokemon correctly by the quota then no one receives a plushie, and one of the workers must do the next puzzle. You don't get two turns in a row at it. You may only post one guess until the person posts an update of the current Pokemon.

Try and not be too idle, the workers would like the game to be fast moving. If you guess the Pokemon correctly and then you're going to be away for 2 weeks then don't wait until you get back because you'll most likely forget about the game. Give someone else a turn.

Right now, an incorrect letter is counted as 1 incorrect guess and incorrect Pokemon are also counted as 2 incorrect guesses. This is also subject to change later on to improve/decrease the difficulty, if any of the workers think it's needed.

Absolutely no editing your guess at the name or a letter. If you plan to edit your post and notice a late spelling mistake and want to change it then specify so. Don't use this as an excuse to change your guess because you might have someone who witnessed you with your previous guess. You'll be in big trouble then.

If it is your turn to post a puzzle, you have 24 hours to post or update the puzzle. In the case of updating, this applies to four situations:

1. When someone makes a letter guess, and it is in (or not in) the puzzle (this also applies to letter guesses in advance).

2. When someone makes a Pokemon guess, and it is wrong/right

3. When so many guesses are made that the man might hang (this also applies to letter guesses in advance as well)

4. When you have yet to post after winning a plushie

If you don't post 24 hours after any situation above, you will lose your turn, and one of the workers will start the next puzzle. (note: the 24 hour rule doesn't apply to the workers).

If you make an incorrect Pokemon guess by accident, you aren't allowed to delete it and make a new guess before the person whose turn it is updates.

When you are guessing the name of a Pokemon on anyone else's turn, you must spell the Pokemon correctly in order to win a plushie of that Pokemon. Example of this rule in action: Let's say someone guessed "Picachu" as their answer to a puzzle, and then another person afterword guesses "Pikachu", if the puzzle is indeed Pikachu, the person who posted second would get the plushie, since the first person spelt it wrong. So please try and avoid making this mistake every time you guess a Pokemon. As for a counter-example, if the man is close to hanging, a correct guess for the Pokemon that is spelled incorrectly will unfortunately make the man hang if there are 1 or 2 guesses remaining, so be careful about this.

Also, if it's your birthday, you're more than welcome to pick any plushie you want for your birthday (excluding legendaries), however, you cannot pick a shiny plushie, as they are obviously rarer than legendaries. When it is your birthday, just post here saying what regular coloured, non-legendary plushie you want, and one of the workers will give you your plushie on their next post.


Plushies

What is a Plushie?

Plushies are soft toys. In this game, if you guess a Pokemon correctly you receive a soft toy of the Pokemon you guessed correctly.

What do I do with a Plushie?

Umm... look at them? They aren't really used for anything, mainly just a fun collecting sort of thing. That's all. Maybe one day they might be used for something, but that's a doubtful possibility. If you have a site it might be wise to put them on there to keep track of what you have. Or keep them on a word document.

I don't like my plushie! Can I trade with someone else?

Yes, you may as long as the other person agrees. If they don't want to trade with you then you should respect that. There are many others that may want to trade. Since this game was created long ago some people may already have a decent amount of plushies they might like to trade. You could try sending a PM/IM to one of them if you would like to trade or ask for a list of their plushies. Most people who play Expedia have plushies, so try trading with one of them, or you could start playing the game to extend your collection a different way.

Can I sell my plushies? Or buy one off someone?

No, you may not sell your plushies for CCPs or Stamps.

How many plushies am I allowed to own?

As many as you can win here. Just remember you can only win a maximum of three every day!

Final Words

ONLY post the names of Pokemon. No dictionary words! That is if you haven't been bothered to read the rules, which I recommend reading. There are almost 500 Pokemon to choose from so good luck!

If there's something you don't understand then ask shinypkmnchaser, Number1ChanseyFan, or me - we bite but we'll still help. Or maybe someone else can help. Have fun! Your hosts and hostess- mr_pikachu, Number1ChanseyFan, shinypkmnchaser

The man has been hung a total of thirty-six times
Hangman makes up approximately 1/5 of the total posts in PCG since 2005; considering this game began in very late April

We're sorry for all the inconveniences, for as you see, one of my employees named Louis was the one who changed your soda. Also, he was the one who took all this time to make your meal.

As an apology, we give you back your money and you have the right to decide what we should do with him.

[mr_pikachu]

If there had been a G in the puzzle, I would've said to slap him on the wrist and be done with it. But now I'm extremely dissatisfied. So I demand that Louis become my personal slave/punching bag. My old one... uh... broke.

[mr_pikachu]

20%. That's approximately 80% lower than the odds that I want a Monferno.

[Shadow Wolf]

20 + 80 = 1

That's right, since you have won one Monferno plushie.

Oh, and take an Aggron, too. Well played! ^_^

EDIT: Grammar correction.

[Shadow Wolf]

O_O, sorry my friend, but it seems that a missing streak is passing by.


_ _ _ _ _ _( 6 )


Incorrect: L,R,N

Remaining: 7

[Number1ChanseyFan]

Is there an S in the puzzle?

[Shadow Wolf]

Speeding up to stop at the end of the line.


_ _ _ _ _ S( 6 )


Incorrect: L,R,N

Remaining: 7

[Lady Vulpix]

Is there a D?

[Shadow Wolf]

Sorry, no D's, but this should be easy now.

_ _ _ _ _ S( 6 )


Incorrect: L,R,N,D

Remaining: 6

[Lady Vulpix]

Yes, it should be Feebas.

[Shadow Wolf]

IT SHOULD?


*In a voice similar to Shadow from Sonic Adventure 2*


I DON'T THINK SO!


*in his normal voice*


It IS a Feebas! Congratulations Gabi. ^_^


*hands over the Feebas plushie*


S in advance for me por favor.

[mr_pikachu]

And I'll take an R in advance, Gabi.

[Lady Vulpix]

Sorry I didn't check this topic before, thanks for reminding me, Brian.
Now I have a Feebas plushie up for trade.

6 letters again.

_ _ _ _ _ _ (6)
Wrong guesses: S, R.

[Crystalmaster Mike]

Hmm, let's try a V, for Victory Road.

[Lady Vulpix]

Isn't that a half of a W for Wedding? (Movie reference, don't mind it.)

_ _ _ _ _ _ (6)
Wrong guesses: S, R, V.

[Crystalmaster Mike]

Let's try a T... for Coffee. <_<''

[Lady Vulpix]

Sorry, I only serve T for Tea. I hope you like it.

_ _ _ _ T _ (6)
Wrong guesses: S, R, V.

[Crystalmaster Mike]

*victory pose* I claim thee, Ponyta!!

[Lady Vulpix]

Sorry, Ponyta's not available. Try again later.

_ _ _ _ T _ (6)
Wrong guesses: S, R, V, Ponyta.
Guesses left: 5.

[Crystalmaster Mike]

-_x''

Ugh... Kabuto then?

[mr_pikachu]

*flips coin between remaining choices*

Could this be a Meowth?

[Lady Vulpix]

Sorry, everyone. 1 guess left. Make it worth it.

_ _ _ _ T _ (6)
Wrong guesses: S, R, V, Ponyta, Kabuto, Meowth.
Guesses left: 1.

[Number1ChanseyFan]

Hmmm, this must be Gabite!!

[mr_pikachu]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's it. R in advance, please!

[Lady Vulpix]

Well done, Christen! You get a Gabite plushie.
I'd like to put an A at the end of it, so I'd get some tea for myself. :)

[Number1ChanseyFan]

Yay!! Thanks for the plushie!!

Here's the next puzzle!!

_ _ _ _ _ _ R (7)

Incorrect Guesses: None.

Guesses Remaining: 10.

[Shadow Wolf]

There's a 66.6%(spooky! :o ) chance that an S helps on this one.

[Lady Vulpix]

A 66.6? Where? And is there a C?

[Number1ChanseyFan]

Wow Louis, that 66.6 was pretty err... technical!! XD Actually, there is a 100% chance that in S is in this puzzle, but a 0% chance of a C in this puzzle. Those are the two easiest percents for me to work with!!

_ _ _ S _ _ R (7)

Incorrect Guesses: C

Guesses Remaining: 9.

[Lady Vulpix]

Ok, is there an M?

[Shadow Wolf]

Well, that letter also has the same chance as the letter S, but if there is no M, then this one should be an Ivysaur.

[mr_pikachu]

This could also be a Whismur.

[Number1ChanseyFan]

Nope, sorry, but there is no M in the puzzle... and the answer isn't Whismur either... but Ivysaur is the answer!! Congrats Louis!! ^_^

[mr_pikachu]

Well played! I'll take an R in advance.

[Shadow Wolf]

Excellent! Thanks Christen. Just another one to the ever growing collection.

OK, time to begin a new one.

_ _ R R _ _( 6 )


Incorrect: none

Remaining: 10

[mr_pikachu]

I demand that you give me my Furret!

[Shadow Wolf]

Now, now... calm down. There are plushies for everyone, and you have earned your Furret plushie, so you don't have to get angry.

*hands over the plushie*

S in advance and may peace be with you.

[mr_pikachu]

Ah, thank you, Louis! That's my second Furret, so it's up for trade.

Here's the next one!

Hmm, let's see, one, two, ..., seven letters.

I'll go for an R.

[mr_pikachu]

Behold, the power of the R!


_ R _ _ _ _ _ (7)

Incorrect Guesses: S
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 9

[Shadow Wolf]

Hmm, could there be a D here?

[mr_pikachu]

When you shoot for a D, you're more apt to flunk.


_ R _ _ _ _ _ (7)

Incorrect Guesses: S, D
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 8

[Shadow Wolf]

OK, time to eliminate possibilities...

Is this Grovyle?

[mr_pikachu]

All possibilities eliminated! The Grovyle is yours, Louis. Well done!

[Shadow Wolf]

OK, thanks Brian. Another new...

Wait! I already have a Grovyle plushie. OK, then away it goes (to the trade list)

Niw pozzul!

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _( 9 )

Incorrect: none

Remaining: 10

[mr_pikachu]

Let's begin with an R.

[Shadow Wolf]

One R is'a coming up!

_ _ _ _ _ _ R _ _( 9 )

Incorrect: none

Remaining: 10

[mr_pikachu]

C mr_pikachu. C mr_pikachu guess. Guess, mr_pikachu, guess.

[Shadow Wolf]

:rolleyes2: Too much repeated words!


_ _ _ C _ _ R _ _( 9 )

Incorrect: none

Remaining: 10

[mr_pikachu]

Ah, so this is a Honchkrow!

[Shadow Wolf]

So it is. The leader of the Murkrows now belongs to you. Well played mr_pikachu.

*hands over the Honchkrow plushie*

S in advance please.

[mr_pikachu]

Ah, thank you, Louis! That's another new plushie for the collection!

Here's the next one.


_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (8)

Incorrect Guesses: S
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 9


Good luck!

[Lady Vulpix]

N?

[Number1ChanseyFan]

Okies, is there a C in the puzzle?

[Shadow Wolf]

Let's add an R to the consonant salad.

[mr_pikachu]

I have my reasons for detesting salad.


_ _ _ _ N _ _ _ (8)

Incorrect Guesses: S, C, R
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 7

[Shadow Wolf]

Well, you detest it, but I love them, especially fruit salads.

...and speaking about salads (salads leading to vegetables, vegetables leading to flora, and flora leading to leaves), isn't this a Meganium?

[mr_pikachu]

Isn't it the other way around? Y'know, where leaves become salad? I'd love to see a salad grow into a tree...

Either way, the Meganium is yours, Louis! Well done!

[Shadow Wolf]

Uh, well...
I can try that. ^_^;
...I guess.


Anyway, thanks for the plushie. This one now goes into the trade list.

OK, new puzzle:


_ _ _ _( 4 )

Incorrect: none

Remaining: 10


EDIT: Want to hear something weird? The last three plushies I have won are all evolution of grass starters. Weird, huh?

[mr_pikachu]

Let's begin with an X.

No, that's not a typo. It's strategy!

[Shadow Wolf]

A well strategic guess.


_ X _ _( 4 )

Incorrect: none

Remaining: 10

[mr_pikachu]

Whoa, is this a Uxie?

[Shadow Wolf]

Hehe, why are you surprised? You don't need to be surprised when you guess right. Congratulations mr_pikachu! You have won a legandary Uxie plushie!

If I'm not mistaken, this is the first legendary DP plushie won in the history of Pokemon Hangman. Congratulations again! Oh, one more thing, don't let it open its eyes.


*hands over the plushie*


OK, since I can't party, because I have to go to bed, then I want an S in advance, and I will dream that I am celebrating this special moment.


"Later amigo!"

[mr_pikachu]

AWESOME! You know, I actually considered not logging onto TPM tonight, since I'm studying for an exam tomorrow. Now I'm really glad I stopped by. ^_^

Here's the next one!


S _ _ _ _ _ _ (7)

Incorrect Guesses: N/A
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 10


Good luck!

[Lady Vulpix]

Nice. Is there an R?

[mr_pikachu]

The R is mighty, but only if wielded properly.


S _ _ _ _ _ _ (7)

Incorrect Guesses: R
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 9

[Shadow Wolf]

Big surprises happen when you less expect it.

Is there an L?

[mr_pikachu]

Does this astonish you? Or did you see it coming?


S _ _ L L _ _ (7)

Incorrect Guesses: R
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 9

[Lady Vulpix]

Wow, nice timing! Is it a Swellow?

[mr_pikachu]

Timing is everything! Way to grab the Swellow, Gabi. ^_^

[Lady Vulpix]

Heh. Thanks. That's a new one for me, although I still have some plushies up for trade.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (9)

And someone play Lingo, please.

[mr_pikachu]

I'll try to get some Lingo time in later tonight.

In the meantime, how about an R?

[Lady Vulpix]

Here you are.

_ _ _ _ R _ _ _ _ (9)

I've updated my Items page (http://forboards.prophp.org/Items.html). Now it doesn't take ages to load anymore!

[mr_pikachu]

Okay, what about an N?

[Lady Vulpix]

You're lucky.

_ _ _ _ R N _ _ _ (9)

[mr_pikachu]

No, I just use strategy. The kind that a good Infernape user has in spades.

[Lady Vulpix]

If you say so. Let's see how you use this Infernape plushie.

[mr_pikachu]

Ah, excellent, Gabi! That's another new plushie for the collection! Thanks!

Here's the next one.


_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (9)

Incorrect Guesses: N/A
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 10


Good luck!

[Shadow Wolf]

...Dropping by to take an R.

[mr_pikachu]

Demanding, aren't we?


_ _ _ _ _ R _ _ _ (9)

Incorrect Guesses: N/A
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 10

[Shadow Wolf]

Demanding? That can't be possible.

That was just to let you know what I was going to do.

Like to let you know that I will nicely ask for a C.

[mr_pikachu]

It is too late for apologies!


_ _ _ _ _ R _ _ _ (9)

Incorrect Guesses: C
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 9

[Shadow Wolf]

It is NEVER late for apologies. Even if someone does not accept it, they will know that one is truly sorry.

Now, I want some T please.

[mr_pikachu]

What if one chooses to ignore it completely?


_ _ T _ _ R _ _ _ (9)

Incorrect Guesses: C
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 9

[Shadow Wolf]

...Then you will have to carry a heavy burden, since you were too immature to accept the fact that nobody is perfect and everyone makes mistakes. Not only that, but you are taking the risk of losing a true friend, a good brother, or maybe...the "special someone" of your life. Sadly, something like this happened to me, altough that's not important.

What it is important is that this is a Metagross, right?

[mr_pikachu]

...For the last six days, the forum said I had made the last post in this thread. Weird.

Anyway, yeah. You've won a Metagross, Louis!

[Shadow Wolf]

...For the last six days, the forum said I had made the last post in this thread. Weird.

I think that happened because of the forum glitches, because when I posted that comment, the page didn't wanted to load the comment. That's why "double posting" is happening frequently.

Thanks for the Metagross. That adds a new plushie for the collection.

OK, let's begin the new puzzle:


_ _ _ _ _( 5 )

Incorrect: none

Remaining: 10

[mr_pikachu]

OK, let's begin the new puzzle with an L.

[Shadow Wolf]

Huh? An L? Weird. I was expecting another letter by you mr_pikachu.


_ _ _ _ _ _ L _( 8 )

Incorrect: none

Remaining: 10

[mr_pikachu]

Huh? Hey, I thought it was a five-letter puzzle!

Well, anyway. Is there a T here?

[Shadow Wolf]

Huh? What the...? What am I doing? Sorry about that, I screwed big time on this one. I will leave it like that, just so I don't make it worse. I'll do the five letter puzzle on my next turn (after I win another plushie).


_ _ _ _ _ T L _( 8 )

Incorrect: none

Remaining: 10


That's why one MUST stay alert everytime. ^_^;

[mr_pikachu]

I'll take a Squirtle, please.

[Shadow Wolf]

Well, well, looks like its your lucky day. This is the last squirtle on stock.

*hands over the squirtle plushie*

...and here's your advanced letter, the S.

[mr_pikachu]

Thanks, Louis! That's my second Squirtle, so it's up for trade.

Here's the next one!


S _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (8)

Incorrect Guesses: N/A
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 10


Good luck!

[Shadow Wolf]

I'll go for an L this time.

[mr_pikachu]

Wise move.


S _ _ L L _ _ _ (8)

Incorrect Guesses: N/A
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 10

[Shadow Wolf]

Now this is weird. I didn't have Shellder on my list of possible pokemon.

But now I have it, right?

[mr_pikachu]

Yeah, you do! And a new Pokemon to add to your "possibility" list.

[Shadow Wolf]

OK, thanks Brian. Now this is a plushie that I will remember, since it was an invisible possibility.

OK, here's the puzzle:


_ _ _ _ _( 5 )

Incorrect: none

Remaining: 10

[mr_pikachu]

Let's open with an L.

[Shadow Wolf]

Not a good opening, I can see.


_ _ _ _ _( 5 )

Incorrect: L

Remaining: 9

[mr_pikachu]

What about an N, then?

[Shadow Wolf]

That doesn't convince me.


_ _ _ _ _( 5 )

Incorrect: L,N

Remaining: 8

[mr_pikachu]

In that case, what about a B?

[Shadow Wolf]

Now you're getting better.


_ _ _ B _( 5 )

Incorrect: L,N

Remaining: 8

[mr_pikachu]

So, is this a Magby?

[Shadow Wolf]

Quite right, my friend! A magby it is!

*hands over the plushie*

S in advance please.

[mr_pikachu]

Thanks, Louis! That's my second Magby, so it's up for trade.

Here's the next one!



_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (8)

Incorrect Guesses: S
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 9


Good luck!

[Shadow Wolf]

R this time please.

[mr_pikachu]

Another miss.


_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (8)

Incorrect Guesses: S, R
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 8

[Number1ChanseyFan]

Ok... is there a C in this puzzle?

[mr_pikachu]

So it would seem.


_ _ _ C _ _ _ _ (8)

Incorrect Guesses: S, R
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 8

[Lady Vulpix]

Does it happen to be Muchlax?

[mr_pikachu]

Sorry, but no.


_ _ _ C _ _ _ _ (8)

Incorrect Guesses: S, R, Muchlax
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 6

[Lady Vulpix]

It must be another Delcatty, then.

[mr_pikachu]

Really? Are you sure about that?


_ _ _ C _ _ _ _ (8)

Incorrect Guesses: S, R, Muchlax, Delcatty
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 4

[Lady Vulpix]

If it has 8 letters, the 4th one is a C, and it has no S and no R, and it's neither Munchlax nor Delcatty, then it's not on the list you gave me.

[mr_pikachu]

It's on the list. And to answer the question that's inevitably coming, I haven't made a mistake here. Just double-checked.


_ _ _ C _ _ _ _ (8)

Incorrect Guesses: S, R, Muchlax, Delcatty
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 4

[Lady Vulpix]

No, I have, and you have been mean not to tell me, especially when I wrote it correctly in my following post. -_- But Louis did, and although I told him it was his right to get the plushie, he said he wanted to return a favor I did to him once, so...

MUNCHLAX

[mr_pikachu]

Yeah, it's Munchlax. And as much as it might've made things easier, I couldn't just tell you that your previous guess was misspelled. That would've basically revealed the answer to you, which would have been unfair to any other players.

*sighs*

R in advance.


EDIT: Rant removed because I'm too frustrated to vent my irritation with either coherence or civility right now.

[Number1ChanseyFan]

C in advance please!!

[Lady Vulpix]

Not really. Firstly, anyone could have guessed right before I posted. And second, saying that a guess is misspelt doesn't mean it's the right pokemon.

But anyway...
_ _ _ _ _ C _ _ _ (9)
Wrong guesses: R

[mr_pikachu]

We've done it this way ever since the rule was put in place.

T.

[Shadow Wolf]

Please, no fighting, I beg of you.

Gabi, you are right, since we are here to help, but Brian, you are also right, since we can't give clues about the answer of the puzzle (and giving a clue about the guess on the last puzzle would've revealed the answer).

*sighs* I feel like I'm doing too much harm with my efforts to do well. :(

I don't know what's happening this last days, but everywhere I appear, there is some kind of fight (Hangman, Lingo). Not only here, but in my house, at college...

I am beginning to think that I have some kind of curse that makes people argue over things that I consider "minor" things, since they can be fixed easily by talking peacefully.

:sorry:

I'll go for an L

[Lady Vulpix]

Hey, don't get worked up over it, Louis, we're not fighting. At least I don't think we are. We're just discussing.

The word should be obvious now.
