Responded.


Yesterday was about as tough as I expected. No one got it in 3 or less, a few didn't get it at all.


Today's seemed very easy to me, so far only 1 has got it on the first guess but there haven't been many games played yet.


As of right now there are no other puzzles in the database, so I need to put some together tonight or tomorrow won't have a game. I planned on doing it yesterday but we just flew back from Hawaii and I crashed hard when I got home. Let Hawaii at 7pm Saturday and got home at 4pm Sunday. Sucks.

Do you see our guesses? Would be a nice rolodex for ideas in the future with our wrong ones.


I had the right category on the second guess. But I knew it wasn't correct. Could just tell it was something within that category.

Got tomorrow's puzzle loaded up. I think it's a good one, there could definitely be some 1s but I doubt many.


I also plan to start sharing the game on various sites starting tomorrow. 


If you're the type to share on social media I would appreciate a share. If not, I get it, I hate sharing things.

I will struggle when they get tougher as I haven’t traveled Ohio as much as most and being a southern Ohio guy I just don’t know they much in general lol

You’ll kill at the obscure baseball player that spent one season in Cleveland.

Does sharing have to wait until Tuesday or is tonight greenlit?

I was waiting to make my minor complaint about today’s answer.  I was hoping I got it on “Cincinnati chili” because  I’m a fan of Camp Washington.

He’s probably prepping as we speak.

Yeah I saw that answer and I definitely would've given it to you. I think I need to add a new field for additional acceptable answers.

I do plan on doing some theme weeks to make clues a little easier at times. There will be a baseball themed week starting on Opening Day (March 27th).

Added a few small enhancements. One prevented cheating if you happened to long tap the image on a phone. I didn't do enough testing on the phone and if you long tap it would remove the blur from the photo and give you a context menu to save or share or whatever. It will also automatically scroll up to show the message and full image before your next guess.
