BONUS! _ _ _ /_ _ _ _!
UNUSED: BCDFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
USED: AE
Bantam: 2
Roto: 2
And we are off with a 2 to two tie! Too exciting!
One point per dash, bonus spots worth double, unless the puzzle is solved! Kinda adds a risk to it all. *my GOD I am exciting*
I will do 30 puzzles, if endurence mode is wanted :) Otherwise we can ignore the embarassing typo and go for just the 10 :D

BONUS! _ _ _ /_ _ _ _!
UNUSED: BCDFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
USED: AEIT
Roto: 5
Bantam: 3
Abjorm: 2 (I left E never updated the used letters list, so I will give him points for his picl - muh bad - In the future - I will award half points for repeated letters though! *strict english teacher face*:eep: *)
And Roto takes on the lead whomping bantam by 2 points. What a hit RotGOE! Abjorm also sneaks on the board with a technical; look our for this guy!

OOC: Ahh, we get a point for each letter. I missed that. Very nice. :)
I'm also assuming that if the main puzzle is solved before (or not with) the bonus puzzle that the bonus puzzle GOES bye-byes?

BONUS! _ o r /_ o _ _!
UNUSED: BCDFGJKLMNPQSUVWXYZ
USED: AEITHOR
Roto: 10 (+ 5 points)
Bantam: 5 (+2 points this round)
Abs: 5 (+3 points)
Roto gains an impressive 5 points, doubling his score and lunging him well into the lead with the use of some good bonus pointage. Abs ties bantam in his rush for the first place spot. While bantam holds steady, he will have to pick up the skillluckto win this round!
A point per letter yes; but to offset the popular letters, the bonus area will often contain lesser used letters. Solving also gives you a point per letter. ( I honeslty thought these were the rules when I started :D)Quote:

OOC: When I saw the bonus puzzle at the beginning of the round I thought I was all awesome and sneaky knowing that it was "'something' GOES", but now I know I was just a fool. :cry:
Suplex the Phantom Train!
Foo'!
Correct!
Bantam filled in the N(s) first though, as his post was before yours. So he gets 2 points.
Roto: 17 (+ 7 points)
Bantam: 7 (+2 points this round)
Abs: 5 (+0 points)
Strategically ignoring the bonus points Roto jumps into the lead gobbling up 7 points for solving the rest of the puzzle. Round one goes to Rot's *ding*
The bonus part was: for LOLZ!
