The first three 5 letter words I see on this page, below the address bar :)

And MeckMeck, two of your guesses are un-clueable. Please check the first page again for rule notifications (double letters)

That goes for all y'all! We're on page three now!

I want to make sure that "flyer" has a score of 0, and is not "no score" because it is a viable, legitimate word.

For clarity's sake, I will add this rule to the first page--If a word is not legitimate, write some form of "no score" for it. If it is legitimate, but has 0 letters, score it as 0.

I'm sorry if I misled you, Dali. The game is still a little bit *under construction* as it's the first time I've played it online.

KevG gave "no score" when there was a repeated letter in a guess. Doing as such makes the guess unscoreable.

I want to have the distinction between a faulty guess and a guess that has zero score. (Zero score guesses are sometimes quite helpful).

That being said, I will take stabs at your word now.

Silly mistake on me!

I repeated a guess (unintentionally, believe it or not).

I guess there's no penalty...the word creator does not need to give the same clue twice if he or she does not feel it necessary.

Heh, after I had my turn at picking a word I realised how hard it was to actually work out the correct numbers.. thats why I wrote a program to do it for me, and thats why I'm not playing myself any more :P

Heh...you beat me to it, Matt.

So you all know, I'm going away for 2 months, so the current rules are how it's going to be. I hope there aren't any more disputes/errata/whatever. If there are, take it to an admin. I'll be back in August.

Good luck, and good words.
