All right, this is how this will work.
You'll guess possible letters to put in place of the lines below and post your guesses. If your guess is correct, I'll put it in the place/s it belongs in lines below; if it's incorrect, I'll put it in this post off to the side, and make the necessary additions to the image (also below.)
To make it count as a contest, whoever guesses the whole sentence first, wins.... um... the same prize as last time. ;D
(By the way, - = a space; spaces wouldn't show between the lines.)
It's pretty much like any game of hangman. :) Have fun! ;)

Action - _a_ - not - alwa_ _ - _ _in_ - ha_ _ine_ _ ; - _ut - the_e - i_ - no - ha_ _ine_ _ - without - action.
(It's a quote; though, not a particularly funny quote, so don't expect anything funny.)
Yeah... I was bored. ;D
-
a
-
There was quite a few of those. :D
-
Well, unless someone else goes soon...I'm definitely gonna' win.
"e"
-
*Laugh!!!* :D
Well - at least, I hope, you're having fun. ;D
(That's the main reason I put it here.) :)
-
Well, if this keeps up...
"i"
-
Heh - well, this method seems to be working well for you.
I've never tried it that way before, though it's a good idea. :)
-
Forum hasn't been busy recently. Maybe not the best time to start this...
ah well.
"o"
-
Well - don't have to wait for them to have fun, right?
Though... we could tell everyone we can to get on soon...
And where's Kitty? She kinda abandoned her contest... and it was better than any contest I came up with... :P
I can always think up another phrase and re-use the same image/s when the forum starts getting more lively. :)
Seriously, though... why didn't I think to do that? It just makes so much sense!!! Where was my mind when I was playing hangman in elementary!!! :o
And I wondered why I was no good at hangman... ::)
-
I don't know why you didn't. It's the way I've always done it.
"u"
no more vowels...
-
*Laugh!!!* :D
I found a list of the "most used letters" in writting, and started with that... I believe I might have been missinformed... ::)
I would've had more luck with the vowels - it's hard to make a word without vowels - duh! :P
I've heard of words without vowels, but I don't know what they are...
But that I never thought of that!!! :o
It just makes so much stupid sense!!! :P
Wow - that sounds weird... does anybody get that? :D
Oh-oh... if you've gone through the vowels already, there's the likely chance you'll get one wrong... :(
I have to make the rest of the images - before I need them!!!
(I thought I'd have them done by now... ::) )
-
next I'll go with "t"
T is a very common letter.
besides that, it's the first letter of my name.
I seem to recall that the "most used letters" lists are usually implied to come after the vowels. You may not have been misinformed so much as misinterpreting your information.
Also, if I remember right, T, Y, B, and C are the most common consonants.
Yay, alliteration!
('T' was my letter, in case you forgot)
-
*Laugh!!!* :D
(Not forgetting. :D )
Actually, there were a few vowels in the list - and, if I recall correctly, they were T, R, S, L, E, I....
I don't remember where I got it from, other than I read it somewhere; (I was in about the fourth grade) yet I remember the letters....
I probably should have been more suspicious of my source. :P
But hey - I was young and stupid (still am, and am ptobably going to be as long as I live. ;D )
-
Hmmm...
I'ma go with "c" next.
-
There's a couple of those... :)
-
I'ma go with "w" 'cuz I'm testing something...
-
Whew! I didn't have to start putting up the person!
What were you testing?
Did you have a guess to the letters?
-
Yeah...I've solved most of it. Just 2-3 words I'm trying to figure out, now.
Let's go with "L"
-
Good - nobody may have to see the ugly little head I made on Paint. net... ;D :-[
(It's that bad, believe me --- it just is...)
You know, if somebody that didn't understand hangman saw this game right now, they'd think it was really weird; with names like alwa, actio, and so on...
-
Mm-hm. Sure.
Let's try "H", now.
-
Sorry, I've been particularly strange of late. :-[ :)
A few of those. ;D
I forgot to put one of the Ts, there...
-
Gah! All of it but one word, I think.
Well, I'll just take "n," now.
-
*Laugh!!!* :D
You'll get it, really soon! ;D
And nothing wrong, so far -- should I pick something harder, next time?
Of course, this is good for me... maybe I'll just use a picture off the Internet, after I make some modifications... then no one will have to see the disaster!
-
"Action may not always bring happiness; but there is no happiness without action."
Am I right?
-
Yes! :D Congratulations! ;D
What do you want for the prize? :)
-
Hmm...I don't know.
I'll think on it.
-
Kay. :D
Let me know when you think of it. ;D
