canse912 Dec 15, 2009	The first teaser I've ever gotten without even peeking at a hint! Not that your teaser is abnormally easy- it's great!
missmaia Dec 17, 2009	this was so easy it is like the easiest one ever it wasnt that challenging but i like having to think for a few seconds
scallio Jun 28, 2010	A bit easy, but a lot of fun. Nice when they aren't all super hard.
bear01 Jun 28, 2010	Love it .. i must seek out your other ovnes - not seen I, II and III.. hehe..
gaylewolf Jun 28, 2010	That was a good one! If it weren't for HY_ _ _ D, it would have taken me a while to figure it out! Thanks!
doehead Jun 28, 2010	Good one for the under 12 crowd. Way too easy for the adults.
bradon182001 Jun 28, 2010	I did have to think about it for a bit before it came to me. Good job GA. Thanks for posting.
Starriddler Jun 28, 2010	I thought about it for a while, but when I saw LU___CANT I knew it.
SSSnowTiger Jun 28, 2010	The last one kind of gave it away, otherwise I'd probably never have guessed it.
FatHead Jun 28, 2010	I disagree with canse912, it WAS dead easy. Fun, though!
bestgirl Jun 28, 2010	I found the instructions a little unclear. I didn't know if it had to be the same three letters and in the same order. I see it did, but that was unclear to me.
sunnybonghits Jun 28, 2010	Wow...that was easy....
M2101 Jun 28, 2010	I thought that HY_ _ _D became HYDRID. But good one though!
phyllisa Jun 28, 2010	Fun! The last word made it easy!
wordmama Jun 28, 2010	Took literally 3 seconds to get, but I loved it! Thx!
patiencewithaP Jun 28, 2010	Fun! Got it with hybrid. Great teaser!
juju1946 Jun 28, 2010	I agree with Doehead. I've only done this for a few days. They seem pretty easy, so far. Hoping this isn't the permanent level of difficulty.
Starkiller Jun 28, 2010	I love the these kinda of puzzles, it's fun
craniac Jun 28, 2010	I agree with bestgirl. It wasn't clear to me that the three letters had to be the exact same ones, arranged in the same order, in every case. I thought the three letters might be different in each instance. (The last two words should have tipped me off, but they didn't.)
Shadows Jun 28, 2010	Teaser of the Day, huh? Good job.
GreenApples27 Jun 28, 2010	OMG! I got teaser of the day!! Thanks, Shadows. Sorry guys if it was confusing.. or too easy. But yay, I got a teaser of the day
Akao Aug 04, 2011	Very good but if you want to make it more challenging take out hybrid. There aren't too many words that start with hy, end with d, and are 6 letters long. Even within that list, there are virtually none other than hybrid that are commonly known.
