Author: Caper Plip - working on a Edited Guide Entry - honest - U180841

Hi all!

It's been a long time since I last put an Entry into here, but thankfully exams have finished and I finally managed to get off my lazy backside to write another!

Any comments?

Looks good to me smiley - ok One nitpick-

In the variations section, you say "barring middle-names from the game" but you never made it clear that it's their full name. I thought it was just your first name until I read that, so the sentence "If the letter called out was 'e', and the person had 4 'e's in their name" made me wonder what kind of name has four 'e's in it smiley - biggrin

Like I say though, a well written entry, though I know nothing about the subject

smiley - blacksheep

My only comment is you need to make it clear that the letter picker tells everyone else what the red letter is- although it becomes obvious further down that they must do, they is a possiblity of temporary confusion...
