Game: Pokemon Hangman v.75 (MA)

[Lady Vulpix]

I'll take those two and a W.

[Knight of Time]

I would have taken a W or two if I was Elmer Fudd, but one, I'm not Elmer Fudd, and two, there's no W here, so sorry.

---ll-- (7)

Incorrect Guesses: R, N, W

Guesses Remaining: 6

[Lady Vulpix]

OK, then, can I have a Shellos instead?

[Knight of Time]

Sure, you can have a Shellos West plushie Gabi, congrats.

'hands you the plushie'

May I have an R in advance please?

[Lady Vulpix]

Thanks!

[Knight of Time]

Hmm, another long one...is there an E?

Two, in fact.

[Knight of Time]

That has to be Electabuzz.

[Lady Vulpix]

It has to be and it is. You get an Electabuzz plushie.

[Knight of Time]

Thanks, that's one I was looking for.

Here's the next puzzle.

----- (5)

Incorrect Guesses: n/a

Guesses Remaining: 9

[Shadow Wolf]

Tough. Is there an N?

[Knight of Time]

There is not, I'm afraid.

----- (5)

Incorrect Guesses: N

Guesses Remaining: 8

[Shadow Wolf]

I see. How about a B?

[Knight of Time]

Nope, no B's either.

----- (5)

Incorrect Guesses: N, B

Guesses Remaining: 7

[Shadow Wolf]

Well, teamwork will be needed on this one. I'll take a D for last.

[Knight of Time]

Yeah, I think you're going to need help if you want this one, there's no D either.

----- (5)

Incorrect Guesses: N, B, D

Guesses Remaining: 6

[mr_pikachu]

Perhaps an L will prove helpful.

[Knight of Time]

Maybe...it depends on what you can come up with that has no L like this puzzle.

----- (5)

Incorrect Guesses: N, B, D, L

Guesses Remaining: 5

Brian, just wondering if you saw one of my previous posts here asking you how many doubles you have? I'm curious to if you have any D/P doubles by chance?

[mr_pikachu]

Hrm. What about a P?

As for my doubles, I can't actually be certain right now, Kyle. My old computer crashed awhile back, and I haven't yet recovered my current plushie list... the file which I can access is a bit outdated. Getting those files off the old hard drive was one of my goals for this summer, actually, so I should probably try to take care of that in the near future.

[Knight of Time]

Do (or did) you have them on a website, Brian?

There's no P here either.

----- (5)

Incorrect Guesses: N, B, D, L, P

Guesses Remaining: 4

[mr_pikachu]

Nope, I was foolish and never uploaded them. Nor did I have an up-to-date backup on any of my external hard drives. :/

Anyway, is there an R here?

[Fett One]

Is there an H?

[Knight of Time]

There is an R, but there is no H here.

R---- (5)

Incorrect Guesses: N, B, D, L, P, H

Guesses Remaining: 3

[Shadow Wolf]

Hey, is this a Rotom?

[Knight of Time]

It is...just the standard form however.

That reminds me, Brian, can the randomizer possibly be tweaked to give out a plushie of any of Rotom's forms (Regular, Frost, Heat, Mow, Fan, and Wash)?

Go for it, Shadow Wolf, and can I have an R in advance please?

[Shadow Wolf]

Kyle: Regarding your question, I'll let Brian answer about the randomizer, but as for the plushies: if the form isn't specified, then the winner chooses the form of the plushie (I believe Rotom's form isn't specified, so the winner chooses its form). However, this isn't specified in the rules (I'll have to discuss this with the workers ASAP). In any case, I still planned to get Rotom's standard form as the plushie, so thanks.

OK, here's the new one:

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ R _( 10 )

Incorrect: none

Remaining: 9

PS: I think this should also be discussed for Brainstrain.

[Knight of Time]

I agree, this Rotom discussion will definitely need to be extended into Pokemon BrainStrain...but I'd rather wait until the discussion here is done first, if that's okay with you, Brian, and Christen.

Anyway, back to the puzzle...I'm betting there's at least one E here.

[Fett One]

How about a C?

[Shadow Wolf]

How about it: 4 for 2

E _ E C _ _ _ _ R E( 10 )

Incorrect: none

Remaining: 9

[mr_pikachu]

I think this is an Electivire.

Also, we were actually just discussing how to delineate alternate forms for Hangman plushies, so this is just another reason to press that conversation.

[Shadow Wolf]

Indeed it is Brian! Nice snag!

*hands over the plushie*

OK, N in advance.

[mr_pikachu]

Thanks, Louis! I think that's a new one for the collection, although I won't be completely sure until I recover my old list. In any case, it's good to have another plushie!

Here's the next one.

Good luck!

[Fett One]

How about T?

[mr_pikachu]

Swing and a miss.


_ _ _ _ _ _ (6)

Incorrect Guesses: N, T
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 7


Good luck!

[Knight of Time]

Let's try an R.

[Fett One]

How about a L?

[mr_pikachu]

50% is better than nothing.


_ _ R _ _ _ (6)

Incorrect Guesses: N, T, L
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 6

[Fett One]

For my last guess, is there an E?

[Knight of Time]

Is this a Horsea?

[Shadow Wolf]

It could also be Mareep.
