Hope you LOVE the teaser. I spent hours making it!
The only one I got was sewn. Good job
Hard but fun! i got stone, but "sewn" threw me off
Great Job! I liked your teaser, and I thought it was clever.
well the directions could have been a little clearer i thought u had to make 4 ryming words from each of the four words lol w/e i would have liked it if u could write a decent set of directions
I thought this was great and the directions were perfect! I got all four words and was intrigued that they all rhymed without the same ending letters! Very cool!
nice one azn, ur teasers get better every time dont they
-_-
Good one!
great! uhm... i got them all except for throne... it was a good one tho!
Good teaser, the only one I got wrong was the first one; for "onset" I made Tones instead of Stone...it rhymed in my head...SO CLOSE!
WOW-U TOKE HOURS TO COME UP WITH THAT? *\O/*
yah, but i spend time on braingle at least 5 gours a day..
sorry, but frankly i don't like this teaser.
is it because u hate me??
No one hates you. Good teaser.
You didn't write this. Why are you taking credit for someone else's puzzle?
I believe it is 'Will Shortz'? I don't know. (I think he meant typing it up, Gizzer)
fun to do mentally!!
nice...I got all but "Stone" good teaser
I got it!! I thought it was great. And the directions were perfect.
I thought this teaser was quite original; but don't get the connection w/'Will Shortz'/crosswords/sudoku?
Easy.Once I got one it was easy because they rhyme.
I really liked this one. So far it's my favorite, probably because I got all of them righ! REALLY COOL QUIZ!!
All words KNOWN
Pretty easy but fun!
Yay! Got them all! Good teaser and the directions made perfect sense!
Thanks
Thanks
TONES can also work for the first one, no?
that was great I got `em all....
thx
thx
Nice
Easy once you get one because you know the rest will rhyme with it. Fun too!
Nice!
Just goes to show you how difficult the English language can be when so many letter combinations can make the same rhyming sound.

I had no problem with the directions. It was getting the correct words that was my problem. I started with tones and it all went downhill from there. Really good teaser.
That was good Couldn't get
my head around sewn tho. Got
the other 3 pretty fast.
Fun & a bit of a challenge for me

The teaser was interesting.
I had to list a couple anagrams for each of them before I got the right set, so I had to sit down and think to get it right. Good Teaser.

Easy, but I liked it a lot
It took a few minutes to find two words that rhymed but then it was easy to get the other two after that. Good job on the teaser!
i got this one really quickly fun teaser though. kudos to whomever made it.
really fun, a little on the easy side but I liked it
Very easy but I still kind of liked it anyway. I'm sure it's much harder to come up with this than it is to solve it.
Once I realized that N was a common letter it became easier. Great teaser.
Very fun!
Loved it! But that's because I finally got them all right for a change.
That was a good one. And I actually got it right!
I love unscrambling words! and I got this one. Thanks for a good teaser, azn.
Got this one again in 2013!
nice and easy.
As long as you didn't spend too much time stuck trying to make "tones" work, it was pretty easy as they all rhyme.
fun, kind of easy.
I work these kind of things every day in my newspaper so this one was easy for me. Thanks for posting it.
fun, a little too easy
Apparently I was much brighter in 2010 and 2013. I misread the directions today!
Thanks for posting though! Guess I need a cup of coffee!
