Puzzle #5 (longest one yet!)

Y

O

How do I have 3 points with 4 i’s and an m?

G!

2 points for I and 1 point for M.

I really don’t understand why vowels are 2 points and consonants are 1… vowels are easier to get… or at least, more common…?

I went back to 1 pt per consonant and 2 per vowel, no Wheel of fortune scoring.

BTW, Skek, I PMed you

N
Because you left one “N” out.

PAUSE FOR SCORING AND CHECK PM

So shouldn’t it be 9. Four i’s = 8?

Yep. You caught me. Left 1 out.

T H E | G U Q I N | I S | A | S E V E N - S T R I N G E D | I N S T R U M E N T

_BCD_F_H_JK____P____U_WX_Z

Colinp6: 2 pts (A)
Booperelli: 2 pts (E)
Pooflady: 3 pt (M, I)
Dname: 2 pt (R, S)
SailorButterfly: 1 pt (T, O incorrect)
Schrobblehead: 3 pt (G, Q, V)
No1: 1 pt (N)
Webfoot08: 0 pt (L- INCORRECT)
Elynnjean: 0 pt (Y- INCORRECT)

and BOOP got the 1st PM with the answer, so we have a WINNER! Schrob is a close second. Why did I think of this? Saw HERO, which had an epic battle while an old man played the guqin.

Huzzah!

:meh: Scoring don’t matter when you get the answer right supposedly.

i think scoring should be a hybrid of scrabble and WoF
