Well, we're past 10 guesses, so I'm happy.

Just a reminder that the limit of 5 guesses without responses has been
reached.

response 586 of 594: Mark Unseen   May 10 02:39 UTC 1997

ai didn't realize there was a limit. ai just thought that one should not
guess twice before a response is given.

Now you can guess, adania.  (Make it a good one...shouldn't
be long now)

The rules are in /a/r/c/rcurl/lettermatch.rules   The limit of 5 is
there so the guessing doesn't get too far ahead of the responses. Not
guessing twice until a response is given would work too, but it wasn't set
up that way. At least this way, with only two persons guessing, the game would
move a little faster.

It makes it different, to have *too many* options. Oh well, in for a penny....

Congratulations aruba!  That was interesting...wasn't
sure how well that one would go, but it lasted quite a 
while given its abundance of common letters.  So, are we
migrating to a new item?
aruba
response 593 of 594: Mark Unseen   May 11 23:45 UTC 1997

Good word.  Sure, let's start a new item.  I'll ask Jeff Kaplan to link it,
and when he decides it's gotten too big for Intro, well, then he can unlink
it or we can start a new item, depending on how we feel.

Ok, the new item is language #85.
