Here's a new game called "Hybrid Lingo". Its a little like regular Lingo and a little like Elimination Lingo. Like regular Lingo, you get whether a letter is found (F) or placed (P). Like Elimination, you get the number of letters found in the target word (by counting the P's and F's). You just have to determine the positions the F's and P's are in. Follow the basic Lingo Rules, except for scoring. Like Elimination Lingo the target word, as well as the guesses, should avoid repeating letters and avoid proper names, foreign words, etc. Post any questions here in this thread. A guess is scored letter by letter of the guessed word, left to right with: (F) if letter is found, (P) if letter is placed; and (-) if all 5 letters missed. (X) if guess is INVALID (duplicate letters; incorrect length, etc) For example, suppose the target word is W I N G S. Then for the following guesses: _ _ _ _ _ Hybrid Lingo (5 letters, no dups) U S A G E (FP) ('F' for the S (found); and 'P' for the G (placed) Y O U T H (-) (So Y,O,U,T,H are eliminated) S A N D Y (FP) L Y I N G (FFF) (So 3 of L,I,N,G are in) W A G E S (PFP) W E I G H (PFP) Y,O,U,T,H are out. If E is in, it must be in position 5 (from USAGE), E must be the O in 'PFP' (for WAGES), so S must be in position 5. This is impossible, so E is out. E,H are out so from WEIGH then W,I,G are in [W _ _ G _ * I in reg Lingo] G in WAGES is the 'F' of 'PFP' so S is in position 5 [W _ _ G S * I] and A is out From SANDY : 'FP', S is the 'F', the 'P' must be in one of the two remaining position (2 or 3), but A is out, so N is placed in position 3. So word must be WINGS. Games can vary in the number of letters, say 4 - 7 letters.
