Excellent. Merry Christmas to all.
Very well done. A great Holiday Challenge. Thanks!
Haven't added comments for quite a while, but this deserves one. Nice Christmas present and even with the clue, which helped, you had me stumped. Excellent job. Merry Christmas, Jake and all of our Braingle friends.
If you're going to have a hint, saying spaces was not enough; you needed to offer the possibility of punctuation as well. btw, the comma is misused after not; you needed a semicolon. And I'm not being nit-picky; punctuation is meant to aid in comprehension, and I don't think you intentionally meant to mis-lead us.
A great one to start the day off with lol
Good teaser. I didn't give myself enough time to solve it, though. Thanks for posting.
A little too difficult for me, but very creative!
I might have figured it out, if I had looked at the hint. I've never done that, but I think I'm going to start! I hate it when I can't figure them out!
Yes, that was a good one, but with your explanation, I had no idea what you wanted me to do. I thought maybe the high position of the stars had something to do with it.
That was terrific and clever! But I had no idea what the correct word was! Merry Christmas to Auntie Sis, Doehead, Word Mama, Babe, Habs, Bradon and all the rest, including the mysterious Mr/Ms Cutebug! May the new year bring you all happiness and good health!
I'm in agreement w/gaylewolf And Merry Christmas to you Gayle.
Merry Christmas all.
Merry Christmas everyone!
Loved the teaser, but didn't get it.
Merry Christmas to all my old friends, and the new ones as well.

Thank you for thinking of me, gaylewolf! Same to you! And happy holidays to all you 'regulars'! (If I made a list, I'd be afraid of leaving someone out!)
Enjoyed it, but couldn't get it!
Time once again to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas! May all your dreams come true!
Thanks, Babe.
So far, they are.

And to all of you .... continue dreaming.

I can't comment on the teaser because I have 'sugar plums' currently dancing in my head.

Now that was a stumper! I was googling like crazy trying to find a word that could be used in four different instances. I wish I could have seen the hint before looking at the answer because knowing I could put spaces in between the letters in different spots might have helped. I thought I had to find one particular 7-letter word. Could Braingle possibly include the hint with the e-mail? I really liked this teaser, though. It's a brain twister, and it had me working my little grey cells! Merry Christmas, everyone, and God bless!
I was stumped also and did not get it. Even the hint did not help. Very clever though. Merry Christmas to all my fellow Brainglers.
