Sherlock Quotes Hangman
I stole this idea off another board. It's quite fun...
So the first person posts a Sherlock quote with all the letters blanked such as : _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ with the slashes representing the gaps between words. Everyone else then takes turns to guess a letter, say "E"
If "E" is in the clue then it is updated:
_ _ _ E E / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ E _
10 wrong guesses and it's game over and the original poster gets to choose another quote. If someone else guesses the quote they get to post a new one.
OK, so I'll start...this is an easy one I think:
_ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _

But the thing is, we've taken away all the things that can possibly have happened, so I suppose the only thing that's left, even though it seems really weird, must be the thing that did happen, in fact. (Miss Marple)

Re: Sherlock Quotes Hangman
Ah solved it
But as I am on a different time zone to most of you I won't join in; it'll sit for hours waiting for the next step.

Mycroft’s popularity doesn’t surprise me at all. He is, after all, incredibly beautiful, clever and well-dressed. And beautiful. Did I mention that?
