Welcome to our newest brain teaser: BLANKO
The rules are simple:
The Challenger posts either a title or the name of an author, but not both.
Ex:
Title of Book: three words, a prize winning novel:
___ ___ ___ ___ ___ T __ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___
What is it?
The Contestants guess the title or author (if it's a challenge on an author's name) and post their answer. If they can, the solve the entire answer. If not, they can also suggest one of the title words or a letter to fill in one of the blanks. One guess per "day" (between appearances of the Challenger) for each contestant.
At the end of the day if the puzzle is not solved, the Challenger will then add only one of the suggested letters the Contestants have suggested, everywhere it appears.
The winner becomes the new Challenger. Good Luck !!
