	I enjoyed it. Less than 4 seconds a word helps spread out the scores - good to have a time challenging ladder every now and then - I didn't finish.

	I respectfully disagree with MaxMallanite - this quiz did not have enough time. Although I did finish (with 12 seconds left), I did not enjoy the quiz nearly as much as I would have had there been a minute more. It is not necessary to "spread out the scores" on word ladders: if someone doesn't finish a word ladder because of an unreasonably short time limit, there's no value to replaying it. They just miss out on a section of the puzzle that would otherwise have provided them additional enjoyment. ~10s/word is good to keep people from just sitting around and thinking about it forever, but a word ladder is not a typing challenge, and the fact that a majority typically get a 100% score (because let's face it, this is a fairly easy puzzle genre, and only people who enjoy this type of game are playing them in the first place) is not a bad thing.

	When I first saw 'poultry pen' my first thought was 'What sort of pen would poultry write with?' :-)

	A better clue for "THAN" would probably be for the better, since it contains the word "THAT" that is needed to be found from the previous clue. Otherwise a fun quiz.

	Some folks like a leisurely stroll through their word ladders, and others prefer a frenzied dash to beat the clock. Impossible to please both camps, so I tend to time them the way I like to play them. Thanks for playing and comments!

	Finished with 1 minute 13 seconds left, didn't find it to be a frenzy, far from "unreasonably short", just fun!

	I agree with geofish. I have given up on quizzes that I couldn't finish typing even if someone gave me all the answers. This wasn't one of them though.

	Thanks for making it longer! I understand some people prefer the mad dash, but for me the most fun parts of a word ladder are the words I initially skip and then have to come back and think about for maybe 5-10 seconds before I get them. With super strict time limits, I never get a chance to even try those words.

	The same letter is changed twice (TERN-TEEN-TENN), but since this game is already published I guess there's nothing that can be done about it anymore. Besides, it's not like I can blame my poor result on it.

	Aces and eights.

	Epilogue: The Coward Jack McCall was found not guilty in a Deadwood kangaroo court, but was soon retried and hung in Yankton, Dakota, at the age of 24.

	I think it needs more time.

	The first one was clear once I finally saw it, but could I suggest also accepting "rack" for "car lifter?" It's a term for what they use to lift a car in garages so they can work on the underside, and, conveniently, it doesn't change the quiz in any way!
