craniac Jan 19, 2007	Great teaser. I found the first one easy, the rest very hard.

britocas Feb 27, 2007	Easy but nice
anion Feb 27, 2007	Fun! fun! fun! I really enjoyed it. Great job
grams60 Feb 27, 2007	I enjoyed this great teaser, I did'nt get any of them but I had alot of fun trying. Then my 15yr. old grandson came in and solved it. Boy I really feel dumb now.
bradon182001 Feb 27, 2007	I'm with the majority so far. This was not as easy as it may appear. Fun and challanging teaser.
Badger Feb 27, 2007	Oops! Didn't get #2. Too narrow minded in my American spelling habits to come up with some "oury" words. Very colourful (colorful) teaser Jazzy! Thanks for submitting.
puttumup Feb 27, 2007	dont like these kinds of teasers..but i am sure if you do..it was a good one,
jazzmusician46 Feb 27, 2007	Thanks guys, I'm glad you enjoyed the teaser. It was fun making it. (Also, I'm glad our friend IMURRAY enjoyed it too!!! That's a bonus!) Wo de pengyou, xie xie ni!
katjojo Feb 27, 2007	I only got the last one. I am not good at this type! Good job though!!
vlerma Feb 27, 2007	Very nice job there jazz. Really made me work for these. Thanks. And Imurray, I'm so proud of you. Haven't said much laterly, but you are so much nicer lately. I like it. Jazz keep up the good work.
SPUTNIK2 Feb 27, 2007	lotta fun, thanks
scallio Feb 27, 2007	I didn't realize armory could be spelled with a U. You Brits and Aussies are funny!
cloughme Feb 27, 2007	Excellent! Good job!
daedalus Feb 27, 2007	Thanks, I got all but two.
ninacarla Feb 27, 2007	It was a lil bit too random... that's why some of them were tough to 'guess'. This would have been more fun, less random and hence more doable if the words were related by, say, meaning as well.
magnum58 Feb 27, 2007	Great, but easy. The last one could be (felon & only)
jamy400 Feb 27, 2007	I still don't understand it.
masquerademe235 Feb 27, 2007	not very good at these teasers... but i still liked it... very nice... i only got the second and third ones
wandering_goat Feb 27, 2007	Great teaser! I had to think for a while on a few of them. Un-American spelling for the win!
jabdr Feb 27, 2007	Wow, I love word teasers but found this one very tough (Which means I didn't get any ) The answers made it seem simple, but so often, the answers WILL do that. Great teaser!! Would love to see 'missing letter 2 ' and try again.
jazzmusician46 Feb 27, 2007	Thanks for the positive comments. They are appreciated.
jazzmusician46 Feb 27, 2007	Oops...I forgot. Magnum: felON and ONly have 2 letters (ON); whilst my teaser required 3 letters.
breathesunshine Feb 27, 2007	Wow, fun trying but not my best outcome! Good one!
Qrystal Mar 02, 2007	Owwww.... I only got the first one. That was tough!! Neat concept, though, and I'm sure the crosswordy-people out there really loved it!
Qrystal Mar 02, 2007	oh and P.S.: it would be Brits and Aussies and CANUCKS who would be "funny" spelling armoury the way it is in this teaser! Don't forget your neighbour to the north, scallio!
Stack1607 Feb 27, 2010	Great teaser! But I only got three ...
doehead Feb 27, 2010	Nice teaser. Got them all.
patiencewithaP Feb 27, 2010	Missed armoury...but fun teaser!
auntiesis Feb 27, 2010	I found this one quite difficult. I only got 1 correct.
FatHead Feb 28, 2010	Ha, little wonder I got the "armory" one wrong; it was done by an Aussie. The mention of "brackets" for parentheses should have tipped me off. shrug Oh well. Good teaser!
jaycr Feb 27, 2013	This one was kinda tough.
cutebug Feb 27, 2013	Solved everyone. Seems like I saw this one before. A big to my friend.
Maggiethe8th Feb 27, 2013	I missed two, but enjoyed them all!
gaylewolf Feb 27, 2013	I, too, found this quiz very challenging but it was a good one. Thanks for posting! Hi and keep warm - lots of new snow here!
bestgirl Feb 27, 2013	Sometimes the stars just seem to align. For no reason that I am aware of, all but one just jumped out.
iggy39 Feb 27, 2013	I really liked it and did pretty good at it too. armoury just wouldn't come to me. the rest i got.
thecatladycac Mar 03, 2013	I got the first one and the last one - couldn't make my brain work any harder, so had to go ahead and check the answers!! Nice Teaser!!
