	I don't get the bonus letters...not all match up to ANY letter in the unscrambled word. Is it just a random letter? Why not make the scrambled words somehow related to Andy Roddick and his sport? Could have been done better.

	@pogues: I think the purpose of this particular quiz was to resemble a typical "Jumble" puzzle found in most newspapers' puzzle sections. The difference between those and this quiz is the newspaper Jumbles will have a number of scrambled words (the ones I'm familiar with have 4 in the daily Jumbles and 6 in the Sunday Jumbles), and each word will have two to three letters that are circled. Once you've completed all the single words, the circled letters, once unscrambled, will complete a joke--usually the answer (and frequently with a pun). Normally, there's a little cartoon accompanying the Jumble that provides an extra hint.

	The only suggestion I would make is to change the bonus letters for words LYON and BOTSUR so that each bonus letter is part of the word being guessed on the line.

	This quiz is horrible, why is the bonus letter for only s? You couldn't think of a word with s in it to scramble, I understand, there's probably only 100 million or so in the english language, and maybe the words should have some kind of link to tennis, my dog could've made this quiz by pointing at words in a dictionary, actually my dog probably would've made it better

	chiefyratain- I'm not sure what dictionary you have, but there is nowhere near 100 million words in the english language

	I think the complaints here are valid. If there was any consistent connection between the solved words and the bonus letters it would be different, but as it is, the fact that "Cathy" and "turbos" are not accepted as answers winds up being completely arbitrary.

	. . . I understand you have instructions in the archived comments, but they should be above the quiz. I figured it was one of those quizzes where the bonus letters spell out the answer, plain and simple. And the bonus letters don't really make sense. 8/11 are the first letter of the word, two letters are just in the word, and the s isn't even in only at all.

	This was definitely edited from my initial quiz. I am trying to figure out exactly what went on here. My original one held truer to the Jumble in the newspaper. Regardless, I am happy to have another quiz published.

	@Pogues it is related to tennis. an ace is a legal serve that is not returned because the opponent's racket doesn't touch the ball, therefore the opponent loses the point.

	@everybody: perhaps you should look up 'hyperbole' in you dictionary.

	I didn't like the way the bonus answer was displayed, as it seemed to imply it was --- --- - --- from the way it was split up on two levels, giving me no chance of getting the answer :(
