Congrats Hamradio.  :Thmbsup:

Hopefully I can pass you at some point. It's not like I haven't been trying.

Also:

 :( Am I really the only one running into these things?

It's the return of the dreaded little box (for the degree symbol this time):

It didn't actually cost me the game this time though, because I died trying to guess the correct numbers.  Those puzzles with numbers in them are a definite weakness of mine.

Oh wow! I just had one heck of a lucky game. Several of the puzzles I could actually remember from earlier games, because I've been playing so much.
It probably doesn't hurt that I grew up watching "Wheel of Fortune" every night either.
Or that I can type around 75 WPM. (Some of those puzzles got finished with very little time left on the clock).

The puzzle that finally did me in was the occupation "Doctor".

Anyway, I can't actually imagine doing better any time soon. Though, I won't give up trying.

Ooh, an update while I slept.  Awesome.  :Thmbsup:

worstje, I think you missed this part:

Apostrophes are supposed to be among the punctuation marks that are automatically shown in plain-text when a new puzzle is presented (i.e., you  shouldn't have to guess them).

Looks like I found an error:

I'm guessing the little box was supposed to be an apostrophe, but when I typed an apostrophe during the game it didn't do anything. (Take it as a correct guess, or as a wrong one).

It cost me the game, which was annoying since I was getting close to the top scores for the first time in a while.
