I got the answer but only by sheer luck.

I chose 'Monk' as my answer but by a different thought process. I looked for a pattern in the number of letters in each word (since the words didnt relate) and came up with a 4letter word...which from the selection was Monk.

Not fair! They weren't listed next to the letters in the question. I would have liked to see the question posed as such:
A) Dares
B) May
C) Fan
D) Mole
Everyone's a poor sport when they don't get the answer, eh? Cool teaser. Very unique. Nice to have some that aren't the same old, same old. Thanks!

I agree with Scallio, that would have made it better because I didn't automatically associate them with the letters of the alphabet. I still think it was a fantastic teaser, and it's going on my favorites, becasue that is really, really clever! GREAT JOB!
Good job!
i didnt get the puzzle it was very confusing it should of been a little more easier to understand i picked monk by A luck guess!!

nice teaser!
This is a nice teaser.
Nice teaser- unusual and it completely foxed me
I don't consider this a good teaser.The explanation was poor and the answer was far-fetched.Okay all you fair faced fans,put me down if you want,but you know I'm right.
I guess I'm not too smart because the puzzle and the explanation makes no sense to me.
I thought this was a hard one. I didn't even KINDA get it until I read the answer. And it took me a second to UNDERSTAND the answer. Too many steps. My little brain would never have come up with it.
Okaaaaaaay, this is an interesting teaser, to say the least. I didn't get it, but thanks for posting. It is certainly challenging.
Doehead you are about the furthest thing from right. Get over yourself its just a teaser. Let me guess you didnt get it.
Its was unusual, but once I read the answer I thought it was pretty cool!

Confused me!! I did not understand it at all.
How about F? Collidef isn't a word!
i just happened to guess monk...no kidding.
I said monk, but I couldn't figure it out.
I really agree with Scallio...in that form, it would be a really fantastic teaser...this way, it's just a bit t0o obscure. (nope, I didn't get it )
Not a great teaser in my opinion. I'm sorry, but this one deserves to be scuttled.
I was totally confused, but then I am always confused. LOL. Thanks for the teaser. It was nice trying.
