That's clever Bobbrt. I like it.
very clever it took me for ever to get just one of them right.
i got it really quickly, but it was still good
I started with Moth, and finally got it right! Nicely done ;)
Very clever, it took me quite awhile to get them. A++++++
so boring................................ just kidding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
well its cute but i didnt get it right because i dont read all that much p
Hmm.. i only got Fable and Parable >.
This is cute. I didn't actually get the answer myself, because I honestly kept geyying hung up on the fact that you had named teo of the X-men in it. That was what caught my eye first, was Storm and Cable. And once my mind was thinking X-men, there was no chance I'd derail that chain of thought enough to solve the puzzle. I'm more than a little obsessed there.
I thought that you meant that the word that was already there and the one you changed it to were connected. Sorry, i must have read the instructions wrong.
Awesome, classic teaser! Good job!
Very nice teaser! Almost had me for a minute!
i'm with marigold. i misunderstood the instructions.
Confusing instructions.
It also took me a minute to figure out what the teaser was about, but when I did, it was easy. Easy and fun.
Payable/parable jumped out at me and the rest fell nicely into place. I love it when I get something right for a change.
clever but hard
Once I got parable, I went back to story, than fable ... as I was going thru the vowels for the second letter in moth I said math, meth, mith ... mith? myth! That was fun. Thanks
I meant "thEn" fable. That misspelling is one of my pet peeves.
Fun teaser. I got the first one pretty quickly, so the rest was a piece of cake.
That was a wonderful teaser. It took me a while to get one of them but the rest were fairly easy.
Thanks for posting.

Easy, once I figured out Moth. Fun, thanks!
ooo i got that one too
Cute, easy, but cute. Thanks.
Great idea, I loved it.
fun
This was a cool teaser! I got it quiickly and it was easy for me, but I had fun trying to think of these words in a new way...It was interesting to see such unique words related in such a simple way...Good job on the teaser and keep more like this coming!
I missed it completely, but I love it!
Fun!
Pretty easy, but fun. I got them all.
I was on the right track and got the first two but then my brain derailed Thanks for the fun teaser.
I started with Stork, couldn't get it off my mind and then went rapidly downhill from their...good teaser.
Very nice teaser - creative. More please?
The parable one is the key, I think. There aren't many other words you can make out of payable!
Good one, had to get to Moth, thought math? myth?...aha!
I would agree with those who said the instructions could have been clearer, but it was still understandable. I also thought Payable was the place to start, since you're options are pretty limited there. Nice teaser!
"since your options..." duh....
Funny, Sonny.
Cute, easy, but cute. Loved it.
Cute, easy, but cute. Loved it.
I too did not read the instruction right. I overlooked the fact they had to be related and got entirel;y different words. Just thought you had to make new ones and so got "table" and "math" for two of them. Guess I should read the instructions twice before starting.
I LOVED this one - thanks for posting!
nice, but too easy
Nice fun teaser, thanks !
Fun, easy and entertaining teaser; I got them all very quickly.
Great one! I love when I get ones that are above 2.0 in difficulty.
