This is a new game similar to Wheel of Fortune but each consonant counts one guess each vowel two.
The winner sets the next phrase or asks for someone else to do so.
Here we go then.

One so far ... or do you mean when do I win? I wondered about a scoring system rather than so many wrong guesses.

Any suggestions how to score? Bonus points for blanks left when the phrase is guessed correctly, points docked for incorrect guesses of the whole phrase?

I'll take a guess if I may..
'AS DULL AS DITCHWATER'?
Correct.
Now how to score. 7 blanks minus 1 wrong guess = 6
Shall we call that 60 points and see how the scores look in future games?
Unconformity to set the next phrase.
