Mommy613-

If you place a backtick (the character that looks like an apostrophe, located below the tilde ~ on your keyboard) followed by a period before your art, and another backtick after your art, it will preserve your formatting.

Here’s a backtick: `

Here’s an apostrophe: ‘

I’ll guess “e”.

Honor-system hangman.

To avoid paricipants being available when I’m not and vice-versa, this hangman game will be played using the honor system.

Hover over a letter in the alpahbetic list above and the position(s) which that letter occupies on the board will appear on the bottom of your browser where your link gets listed when you hover over a real URL. If that letter isn’t in the secret word a “sorry!” will appear.

You can then update the game as it progresses. It’s not necessary to recreate the entire board, as that can be a pain if you haven’t done it before.

If you understand the instructions and play the game properly, I’ll be the first to recognize your accomplishment and congratulate you.

Here’s to something new! (15 letters).
```

To attempt at putting the overly-wonkish instructions into English:

Put your mouse over the blue “Z” in the alphabet list above.

This means “Sorry, but Z isn’t one of the letters. Now, give yourself a hand (or whatever limb is appropriate)”.

As the first responder, go ahead and cheat (if you’d like) and see the whole word by hovering over each letter. Don’t give it away!

Great idea ICOT! I guess E and it looks like I’m wrong so I’ll add a head to the gallows.

YW Moderator-42-

Thank you.

Honestly, I didn’t expect this to go over particularly well, and I haven’t been disappointed.

There are game and trivia sites that work by showing the answer when moused-over, but this was the best I can do with the HTML restrictions in place.

Very Cute ICOT – Sorry no patience to redo the HTML for responding to used letters but it is a very cute idea, and great choice for the word.

I apologize for all the repeats, but I kept getting a server error and it wouldn’t post until the modical magic appeared. Btw, mods, how did you fix the error?

While the current game has been dormant in an unsolved status for over a year, we need not worry since ICOT had the great foresight to build in the answer into the post. So even if ICOT’s memory would no longer serve to recall the word after this long a pause, we are not out of luck.

So adding in the following yet unfilled guesses to those previously filled in:

N by oomis1105 (last year)

S by simchallthetime (last year)

O by Tums (last year)

T by brotherofurs (today)

We have:

_ O N _ _ A T _ L A T _ O N S

(Sorry, can’t do the fancy ASCII graphics.)

This must have been the longest game pause time in CR history. Carry on.

Also note, posting to this thread seems to always give a “Server Error”… bb-post.php

But it seems the post does get through.
