	The number for "Bell" should be 5, not 4; and "Noble" is misspelled.

	@Tahnan: Thanks. Both have been fixed.

	Some suggestions: Try not to use "time" in the clue for the answer that contains "time" Limousine at Church? That's a bit of a stretch...how about at a prom or a Hollywood gala? Swap the Easy one out for something else; it's a giveaway You could play around with column widths and clue length a bit and get every question down to one line.

	@caramba: Thanks for the suggestions. I went with church for limousine because of weddings. I felt prom or Hollywood would be sure giveaways. I'm not particularly bothered that "time" is in the clue and the answer, but will ponder an alternative. I wanted at least one of these to be easy because I wasn't sure how difficult this quiz would be, thus the "easier than easier" clue. Again, I'll consider an alt.

	Great original idea: five globes! But there's a problem in the instructions. EXAMPLE: If the word is BOAT and the clue (+ number of added letters) is "A wild feline (3)", the answer is BOBCAT. So does that mean 4 + 3 = 6?

	MSUKent:	Jun 18th, 2011 at 01:13 GMT		2 points
	@WyvernSabres: You're right. My bad. It should read "A wild feline (2)." I will fix.

	This is a GREAT idea! I hope you do more. (I could have used another minute, but I'm a little slow.) So maybe ask others. 5 Globes

	Lovely! Possibly take “perennial” as an alternative for “perpetual”?

	@Pit_trout: Good suggestions. I will.
