 >>>>>>>I'll need four players for a game of Lingo.
 >>Here's
 >>>>>>>how it works.
 >>>>>>>
 >>>>>>>You'll be divided into two pairs.  Each pair will

 >>>>>>>a Lingo card.  It has 25 numbers, a number of

 >>>>>>>are already marked off.  The numbers that are
 >>>marked
 >>>>>>>i want to play lingo now and i want to play game
 >>show so put me there now or i will kick your ass i am
 >9
 >>>>>>>
 >>>>>>>I'll toss a coin to determine which team goes
 >>>>first.
 >>>>>>>When it's your turn, I'll give you the first
 >>letter
 >>>>>in
 >>>>>>>a five-letter word, like this:
 >>>>>>>
 >>>>>>>[font=Courier New]L _ _ _ _[/font]
 >>>>>>>
 >>>>>>>You'll have 24 hours to S-P-E-L-L your guess for
 >>>the
 >>>>>>>word.  I'll then give you color-coded clues as to
 >>>>how
 >>>>>>>close you are to the word.  For example, if the
 >>>word
 >>>>>>>were "lingo", and you guessed "L-O-N-E-R", I'd
 >>give
 >>>>>>>you this clue:
 >>>>>>>
 >>>>>>>[font=Courier New]
 >>>>>>>[COLOR=red]L[/COLOR] [COLOR=green]O[/COLOR]
 >>>>>>>[COLOR=red]N[/COLOR] E R
 >>>>>>>L _ N _ _
 >>>>>>>[/font]
 >>>>>>>
 >>>>>>>The red letters are in their correct places.  The
 >>>>>>>green letters are in the word, but not in that
 >>>>>place.
 >>>>>>>The black letters aren't in the word at all.  If
 >>>the
 >>>>>>>word isn't gotten within five guesses, it goes
 >>over
 >>>>>to
 >>>>>>>the opp
 >>>>>>>
 >>>>>>>If you get the word, you earn a point and the
 >>right
 >>>>>to
 >>>>>>>pick up to two balls from your bowl.  To start
 >>off,
 >>>>>>>there are 20 balls.  Most of them have numbers on
 >>>>>your
 >>>>>>>card.  The others are blank, and they'll cause
 >you
 >>>>to
 >>>>>>>lose your turn if you draw one.  If you get five
 >>>>>>>numbers in a row, either across, up and down, or
 >>>>>>>diagonally, that's a Lingo!  You earn two points,
 >>>>and
 >>>>>>>you get a new card and a new set of balls.  (Wait
 >>a
 >>>>>>>minute, that doesn't sound right...)
 >>>>>>>
 >>>>>>>PENALTIES:  You will lose your turn and your
 >>>>>opponents
 >>>>>>>will get the next letter in the word if A) you
 >run
 >>>>>out
 >>>>>>>of time guessing a word, B) you don't get the
 >word
 >>>>>>>within 5 guesses, or C) you guess a word that
 >>isn't
 >>>>>>>legal (see below).
 >>>>>>>
 >>>>>>>LEGAL WORDS:  Any five-letter word that's in the
 >>>>>>>[i]Official Scrabble Player's Dictionary, 3rd
 >>>>>>>Edition[/i] is OK to guess, but as a rule, the
 >>word
 >>>>>>>you're trying to guess will never be a very rare
 >>>>>word.
 >>>>>>> If a team guesses an illegal word, it won't be
 >>>>>>>judged, and they'll lose their turn.
 >>>>>>>
 >>>>>>>WINNING:  The team with more points when time is

 >>>>>>>
 >>>>>>>BONUS ROUND:  Your aim here is to guess enough
 >>>words
 >>>>>>>correctly to get a Lingo within 12 guesses.  With
 >>>>>each
 >>>>>>>new word, you'll start with the first letter and
 >>>>>>>another letter already given to you.  Each word
 >>you
