Hangman - Sign Ups & Questions (MMC 2016)
Titles are now running low, but there's more to come...These titles will be more known than the last 300, but there's a catch... these titles will have no vowels!
After the last 11 titles have gone, you can choose between numbers 1-100.

Wow, well done everyone. I can't believe how fast this game has gone!
the new ones, is it just the title thats without vowels or is the authors names without vowels too?
Brooke wrote: "the new ones, is it just the title thats without vowels or is the authors names without vowels too?"Or maybe both?
Brooke wrote: "the new ones, is it just the title thats without vowels or is the authors names without vowels too?"There's no vowels at all.
O.O(I wanted to post a gif of an exploding head but all the ones I found would be too graphic.) So... *head explodes*

This really looks impossible so far so yeah, I second this. LOL
They're more well known than the last 300, so while it will be harder without vowels, it won't be impossible.
Just to further clarify does 'Y' count as a vowel this round?
Bookbuyer wrote: "Just to further clarify does 'Y' count as a vowel this round?"No. A, E, I, O and U are the only ones that are removed from the title/author
The problem I'm seeing with even attempting to solve ours so far though is I have no idea how many vowels there were removed. Heck it could be one from each word of words that have a ton of vowels in them so I'm not sure where to even start looking.
Thank the lord my team snagged one of the final puzzles before the no vowels so we still have that to work on. :)
This may be a dumb question but can we still guess vowels and have you put them into our puzzle or no?
Carrie wrote: "This may be a dumb question but can we still guess vowels and have you put them into our puzzle or no?"No, all vowels have been removed from the puzzles, so vowel guesses wouldn't be accepted.
3 titles have been guessed so far, so it''s doable. :)
I totally misunderstood this no vowels thing. I thought it was a title with no vowels at all not that they were taken out.
You can also use the author's name, in that case, Gail Carriger.

If we end up having a day or two left of the challenge when all the puzzles are gone can we still submit books for points or is it over when the titles are gone?

Hangman will be finishing at 11am (UK time.) tomorrow, so please make sure to get any reviews posted before then.
Yikes! Now we've got a hard deadline to figure out that pesky board of ours LOL
So is that a little under 19 hours from now?
Megan wrote: "So is that a little under 19 hours from now?"Yep :)
Glad I saw this. I'll have to finish my book today.
Ah, I still have two books that I probably won't finish until tomorrow!
Abbie wrote: "Hangman will be finishing at 11am (UK time.) tomorrow, so please make sure to get any reviews posted before then."I have a question and don't want to start a huge debate by asking but is there anyway possible you can make the final cut off in the afternoon UK time to give those of us in the US time to get out of bed and see our final letter placements and make guesses at our puzzle? For me 11am UK is 6am which is fine for turning in my books but our puzzle won't get updated before I head to bed and I have enough trouble crawling out of bed between 7:30 and 8am everyday my time no way can I get up well before 6 to search an answer and I've solved most of our puzzles.
