[Catsalive]

Can I buy a letter Nistha? I know what the rest are but I don't have anything coming up soon with those letters in & I still have 6 dashes so I can't guess yet.

I wasn't sure what a hint entails - does that give you a letter or just a hint about the titles?

[Nistha]

Haha! I never thought about that - yes, you may buy one for 2 points!

[Catsalive]

Yes, please. I need to buy enough to be able to guess the rest, whether that be one or 2 letters. I know I'm missing g, v, z, x.

If I buy 2 Gs I'll be left with 4 dashes so I'll be able to guess then, won't I?

[Nistha]

You just need to buy letters not per dashes so buying one G and using it for this round will do it!

I will award you 7-2 = 5points for this round if you go ahead with buying G
