Got all tied up with writing a script to manage the formatting ... 😂 A fun exercise.

I would only say that puzzles may be harder than you expect. It's easy to go for your fave quote, something meaningful or topical, or think you don't want it to be too easy & then it goes for 10-11 rounds. You can probably carve out the most interesting phrase in a quote to simplify it. Or just use generic phrases. See the replies to the rules toot for past puzzles as examples.

And you're under no obligation to host. Feel free to nominate someone or pass.

In the 5th round of this game, @kboyd correctly guessed

PEACE AND LONG LIFE

which is occasionally the canonical response to "Live Long and Prosper".

Congrats, kboyd. You can run the next game or nominate another to do so.
