Five-Strike Hangman

Of course. There are a couple of S’s here:

/ L A ___ ___ / ___ O L ___ S / ___ O L D / C O ___ ___ / C O ___ C ___ E S / D E A R .

An H next, mebbe?

And does there need to be a backslash before the first word? Just wonderin’.

No, I think I can remove it.


Yes, there are a couple of H’s as well:

L A ___ ___ / ___ O L ___ S / H O L D / C O ___ ___ / C O ___ C H E S / D E A R .

An N, please.

Thank you. :slight_smile:
Unfortunately, there are no N’s in this sentence.

Strike four.


The sentence remains unchanged:

L A ___ ___ / ___ O L ___ S / H O L D / C O ___ ___ / C O ___ C H E S / D E A R .

I like a U in the fifth word. I think I have the first word, but that’s it.

Good job, then. :slight_smile:


Now the sentence looks as follows:

L A ___ ___ / ___ O L ___ S / H O L D / C O ___ ___ / C O U C H E S / D E A R .

So much pressure. One more strike and we lose, right? OK, I’ll go with Z.

There’s no pressure. You said you knew the first word. :slight_smile:
Good job again!


This what the sentence looks like now:

L A Z ___ / ___ O L ___ S / H O L D / C O Z ___ / C O U C H E S / D E A R .

Then, I’ll put in a Y as well, since that will finish two words.

Problem solved:

L A Z Y / ___ O L ___ S / H O L D / C O Z Y / C O U C H E S / D E A R .

I still don’t know that second word and I’m no good at running this, so I’ll back off for now.

BTW, this is the first Thread Games thread I ever participated in.

K, please.

Ah, love it. Must be all the books you’ve eaten.

Then an F, please.

Thank you.

You got it.
:slight_smile:

Just a second.


With F and K, the sentence has been revealed completely:

L A Z Y / F O L K S / H O L D / C O Z Y / C O U C H E S / D E A R .


Congratulations!
@Elendil_s_Heir , please post the next sentence. :slight_smile:

Thanks! Where does that phrase come from?

Next up:

__ __ __ __ /__ __ __ /__ /__ __ __ / __ / __ __ __ / __ __ __ __

This is just a random sentence. Where I come from, this game is played with original utterences.
That the sentence should be a common phrase, a standard line, or a familiar statement is not a rule in this game.

Understood, and thanks.

I’ll guess A.
