Lighthouse Scramble - 11/22/06 06:14 AM
OK, we've done this one before, sort of, but not in a while. Scramble the letters in a US lighthouse. Note how many words in the name. The person who solves the scramble posts the next one. One post per person per day, to start anyway. Here's the first one.

Re: Lighthouse Scramble - 11/29/06 03:54 AM
Maybe we need a clue? Maybe the way they're broken down in those words makes it harder? Maybe we should start with one word lighthouses and graduate to multi word lights? Maybe we should scramble each word in multi word lights?
(Maybe I can't get it and am just making excuses???

Hilari...it looks like you got it (can't think of any others that'd work...I thought North Point, but there's one "o" too many). If so, don't forget it's your turn to post another.

Re: Lighthouse Scramble - 12/07/06 03:51 PM
That's it -- and that's it for me. My apparent dislexia disqualifies me from participation. You are up Judy.
Perhaps a rule that extra letters could be included in the clue if they were offset by brackets?
[T]hat crates a bone?
Posted By: Lighthouser
Re: Lighthouse Scramble - 12/07/06 04:03 PM
John, don't stop. Throwing in an extra letter is easy to do, and definitely makes the puzzle more challenging.
This should be a fairly easy one because it's only one word...

Re: Lighthouse Scramble - 12/08/06 12:08 AM
If extra letters were identified by brackets, it'd kind of negate the point - you can just ignore the bracketed letter, and it's a normal puzzle. [z]kwon ouy?
But if you want to post a puzzle with extra letters...kind of an "intermediate" level...go ahead. Just note the number of extra letters.
Make sense?
BTW, JJ, don't forget it's your turn to post another scramble...with or without extra letters.

Maybe after this one, could we do some easier ones?

I was thinking of making them easier, hoping to get more players. I think I've been making them harder and harder, trying to make them more challenging.
