Yes you are being an idiot. I have never counted more than 1 word guess from 1 person as losing a life. In fact you were just complaining that I couldn't simultaneously accept a word guess as not counting for one of the 2 guesses allowed that round and as losing a life if it was incorrect. I explained why you were wrong.

Absolutely, which is why I don't understand why people don't fire off vowels at the start.

Tired of ads?

It seems it isn't a good Poly game unless there are liberal amounts of death involved. So far we only have a paltry 2 bodies on the so-called pile.

My apologies, I misread where the lives had been lost. Anyways, disregard what I said on it, it's all utter crap

Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

Well E and T are the most common in the English language, so codebreakers always start with them to make their task easier. E is the most common, but then since we're not playing in school (well, some of us aren't) then the sly 'polytubbie will use words that do not contain T or E, certain that these will be the first guesses. Well, almost certain.....
Not sure why we started with L and P here though. It's your choice!

Well they had the same effect as guesses of T or E would have done, so it's all academic.

Spikey would have been wrong too, but never mind.

He can do the next one - I'm not in a hurry to reach Emperor and he really needs the posts.

Spaced! God, did you not read my post before? Now Spikey might be able to win. I was hoping that he'd guess first, and then be unable to next round, when it was obvious.
