Anyway, lets get on. Thanks to rhb for his creative genius.

Welcome to angie (our second non native English player with gumbie) who zooms straight into the game with PETROL for 6. Josh throws a 7 lettered word into the melting pot with SMELTER. Jacko and wucky and marcusr are so stressed out at not being able to find the 8, they’re holding their TEMPLES.

Mayharm, alcra, Starrman, demonseed and Favs win the round with MOLESTER. It's not Mo-le-ster - it's Mole-ster as in 'You know Jake, the old mole-ster - he's lived in these parts these 20 years...." *Favs pipes up, “Nope, its Mo-le-ster.*

Chris chances his arm with a dingy, err dodgy LEPTOMES for 8. Weighing in with a massive 13 hits on google, all of them looking like redirection type sites, I can’t allow it for now. If somebody has the Readers Digest Dictionary, can they check as Chris assures me it is in it. Och aye?? *Richard chuckles at his Scottish accent* *Chris wonders why Richard is using a Welsh accent to say Scottish words*

So the player table after round 2 is...
demonseed 15
Favs 8
Mayharm 8
Starrman 8
Alcra 8
Freddie 7
GalaxyShield 7
Chris 7
Marcusr 7
Jacko 7
wucky3 7
The Plumber 7

And now straight onto Game 4, Round 3… the first numbers round.

And the numbers are…

*** 75 8 2 5 4 3 ***

and the target is…

*** 843 ***

Put your finger on the thing. That’s it. Right, Are you ready? Right. Your time starts now…

Maybe it was Professor Plum with the lead pipe (I don't use lead pipe - it's passé.)

How come I only have 7? Does the score only count for the current round or does it get transfered over with each round? If it transfers over every round in the game I should have 14 as I had a 7 letter before. I'm still not sure on how this all works obviously, sorry if I'm being a bother.

The Plumber humbly reminds Mr. Richard of his submitted word, emplores, which apparently got overlooked in all of the confusion.....
