	Thanks for the publish, Sporcle! Just after I contributed part 2!

	Love the twist! Word ladders had gotten somewhat stale lately.

	Very original and lots of fun!

	Tricky! Good to see something new here. I kept thinking of answers to the clues and having to remind myself to change them to a homophone for the ladder.

	I managed three!!!! Much harder than it looks... And some I thought I knew the answer (in fact I did) but couldn't for the life of me think of a homonym or alternate spelling...

	Being from Devon, I should have got 'tor'. hangs head in shame

	Kept forgetting the original answer while trying to work out the homophone. Maybe add something that puts the actual answer up when you type it so you remember it?

	Fantastic quiz! Love the really hard word puzzles.

	Great, great idea. But I think it needs more time. There's a lot more thinking involved here than in other word ladders. Also, "worn" and "warn" do rhyme the way I say them and have always heard them. I'd like to know how people say them that doesn't rhyme, because I'm having difficulty imagining it.

	70 ratings and 3.29 average?!? How is this quiz not getting ratings of 5 right across the board?

	9toes:	May 25th, 2011 at 19:22 GMT		2 points
	Me too Blowfish_Hootie - about worn/warn. Also cannot imagine different pronunciation for bare/bear. Great twist, loved the challenge.

	That's a really clever quiz, keep making them :)

	I would have liked, somewhere in the instructions, a mention that this is a 4 letter word ladder. One of the reasons that kept me from giving it 5 globes.

	I would have liked, somewhere in the instructions, the answers to all the clues, so I wouldn't have to think at all. One of the reasons that kept me from giving it 5 globes.

	I can't get it to work. I know some of my answers are right but nothing is showing up...

	I used my hole mined on this won.

	loved it :) i could fig out some of the individual answers but then i forgot it was a wordladder, duh!

	grayantimatter:	May 26th, 2011 at 06:23 GMT		3 points
	Very creative and pretty difficult....nice change of pace...

	chiefyratain:	May 26th, 2011 at 19:45 GMT		2 points
	Really good idea, some of the clues were a little vague I thought, but I also forgot that it was a word ladder, I think people would've done better and rated it higher if they had remembered that.

	Fan-freakin'-tastic! Great twist on the word ladder idea. Kudos, caramba. 5 orbs.

	Grate job. Fun quiz, I new all of the answers two, so that's a plus.
