Guess the Word
This is like mastermind or whatever with words. I have chosen a word and replaced all the letters with blanks. Look, there it is!
--------
You have to find out what the word is. In order to do that you must post a word with the same number of letters. If your word and my word share a letter in the same place, then I will reveal that letter in the blanks. So an example.
If the word is DARE and you guess dunk I would post
D---
If the next guess is dirk I would post
D-R-
and so on.
The winner is the one who posts the correct word. Ok, here's the word again!
--------
GO!

I assume proper nouns are not permitted?

I don't particularly care. If people want to do proper nouns, they certainly can. I'm probably going to stick to regular words.

It's a real word, I promise. It's from the same poem as my hangman quote.
-
I don't think it's any word I know.
thrin
-
"For the thrid time, I TOLD you I was dyslexic"?
-
It is thrid and it means to pass through in the manner of a needle or thread.
-
Does that mean I get to go next? [DONKEY] Oh, pick me! Pick ME! [/DONKEY]
