Re: " gem.bahai.fyi/crostic/ Crostic Nines, the daily acrostic..."
The problem with the dot is now fixed! Valid input consists of a number followed by an alphabetic guess; any other symbols are simply discarded. So, the following are both correct:
4. challenging - AND - 4 challenging

It would be nice to have the number of letters given at the end of each clue (perhaps also with any known letters).

Not a bad idea, I'll be mocking up a new guess and hint UI and will see if that works.

The new guess and hint UI is in. I think it's a big improvement overall, although it does make the UI much busier.

I've coded in a settings section to allow players to rename themselves at will and toggle display settings like ANSI colours and Unicode decorations (the underlines) on and off.

There's been a crash and I can't quite pin down the cause 🤔 Crostic Nines may be down for the day today, or at least until I can look into it and fix it. Sorry!

The all-important "Give up" link has been added. Now, if even if the game is too hard, you can still register your personal best!
Crostic Nines, the daily acrostic word-guessing puzzle I've been working on, is now live for its alpha release. Check it out, and please let me know of any bugs you might find! [gemini link]
