Awesome quiz, but it needs a few more alternates: "balanced" for Fair, "sickle" for Hammer, "bones" for Skin (if you type too quickly it doesn't get "bone). I hope this makes the front page!

Also, "nail" for Hammer, "magic" for Might, "mind" for Body just to add a few more. Otherwise great quiz!

"bound and gagged" is all I could come up with for that one; also, I've always heard/said "boom OR bust" anyone else??

Lean could allow "hungry". As in the Shakespeare quote "he has a lean and hungry look"

I've always heard of the idiom with "Rack" as "Wrack". As soon as I saw the answer I knew of it. It's correct both ways, but perhaps more familiar with a W in front?

I tried "sick and twisted" as well... and then I couldn't think of anything else! :P I like that you can use "out and out".

This quiz almost has a double challenge: how many of them can you get with alternative answers? It'd be interesting if you could see scores for that as well...
