Gave it my first shot today, having no idea what was going on, and
thinking I was going to have to fill in all the words and that it
would take forever. Big surprise on my 40th guess when it all
revealed itself!<br>

I think it's my new favorite game. I find it hard to not
choose <br>
non-content words -- which will likely have lots of hits,
but not tell <br>
me much -- versus words which are likely to be wrong but
would be much <br>
more revealing.<br>
