That Flo is a bit of a bossy boots! I am minded to try the idea of placing a guessed letter only once, so that multiple guesses of the same letter may be needed, but these could be part of a single guess (so that for instance you could guess I and I). I would meanwhile also increase the number of potential wrong guesses to nine (as good as any other ranging shot). I will start a new thread along those lines shortly, and the fanbase can then let their feelings be known...

Yes it is, Joan What a good collection of guesses on that one. So, are you taking over or are you passing to Lex?

He was a world champion pool player from the 1960's. One of the best matches in history was Minnesota Fats against Willie Mosconi.

There's a great movie about Minnesota Fats and Fast Eddie Felson called "The Hustler" released in 1961. Just thinking about it makes me want to buy or rent it. Game on!
