Hangsquid!

Oh, you!

A E N O U くコ· (5/10)

 

[SyMag]

I can't with these puns.

 

[Anaru]

I see that the word might contain a C.

 

[Cuttleshock]

It certainly wasn't ruled out until now.

A C E N O U くコ: (6/10)

 

[IoCal]

An I , perhaps?
We're just going through all the vowels, I guess.

 

[Cuttleshock]

Sadly, you were. Sorry! At any rate, I'm gonna keep the game going until at least most of the word is guessed.

_ _ _ _ (4)

A C E I N O U くコ:ー (7/10) (I can't spell anything with all these vowels...)

 

[G1ng3rGar1]

I somehow knew that Y was going to be the vowel

 

[Cuttleshock]

The vowel sound, sure.

_ Y _ _ (4)

A C E I N O U くコ:ー (7/10)

 

[Anaru]

Is there a T?

 

[Cuttleshock]

No.

_ Y _ _ (4)

O ICE TUNA くコ:二 (8/10) (or Natu, if you like)

 

[IoCal]

Maybe a S ?

 

[Anaru]

Is there a P?

 

[Cuttleshock]

Aaand I win! Goodness, you were all pretty unlucky - discounting vowels and Y, you had... almost exactly a 40% chance of getting all of those wrong (no, yes, I used a calculator). Let's see how long it takes someone to get the word! I'll just continue counting attempts.

_ Y _ _ (4)

A C E I N O P S T U くコ:彡 (overtime!)

 

[Anaru]

The only 4 letter words I can think of with y as the second letter are pyre, cyan, and lynx, and none of those can possibly be correct...

Edit: There's also pyro, hymn, myth, and lyre, but those also have a letter taken in all of them...

 

[G1ng3rGar1]

Don't forget the UK spellings ;-;

I was going to guess Tyre but there's no T

 

[Cuttleshock]

Interesting. Just guess letters!

 

[SyMag]

How come everyone else has such good luck ._.

Is there an M?

 

[Cuttleshock]

Hey, you got the luck!

_ Y _ M (4)

A C E I N O P S T U くコ:彡 (overtime!)

 

[SyMag]

I think I know the word...

 

[Anaru]

Is there an R?
