More specifically, if any of the letters at the bottom of the screen are contained in the solution, they will have been placed on the puzzle board. If they are not on the puzzle board, they are not part of the solution.

The term is 'sovereign citizen'.

Then don't answer the brain teasers. Marty, PMcC, onetrack and a few others appear to enjoy them.

Careful Nev, you're starting to sound like GON.

Power Outage is correct. Nev, it's like Scrabble. You get so many letter tiles. If you can fit them into a word, so good. Sometimes you can't. If you want to make a word but don't have one of the letters, too bad. If your answer 'intake' had been correct, the N tile would have been used. As it wasn't, obviously 'intake' wasn't the correct word.

When the bonus round is loaded, the topic (i) is displayed. Six letters (ii) are given to start the solution - R,S,T,L.N and E for every game. The contestant then picks 3 consonants and 1 vowel (iii), and if they had spun up a wildcard in the preliminary rounds, they pick a 4th consonant. All the correct letters are entered in the puzzle. If your solution had been correct, the given N would have appeared as indicated by the yellow arrow.

A long way off. Note that the given letter N is not in the second word.

GON, You complain that the CTP is compulsory. That's what the "C" stands for, Compulsory Third Party. But it's only compulsory if you drive. Don't drive and you won't have to pay. It's like travelling on a train or bus. Buying a ticket is compulsory. Don't travel by bus or train and you don't have to buy a ticket.

Speaking of Artemis, I see that their crapper has failed again

Correct.

GON,, go out and have an accident. Break a couple of legs, lose an eye, then make a claim. That way you'll get part of your money back, at least.

This might give you some idea. The area around the Strait of Hormuz. Territory to the left of the image above Mountains around Tehran

Pretty close. The fact that the letter I was picked but not put in the last word ruled that answer out.

Correct.

Iran wants to charge ships tolls for passing through the Strait of Hormuz. Iran is claiming sovereignty over the waterway in the middle of the war, and it's important because about one-fifth of the world's oil and gas goes through that waterway.

An internet search brought up this from the Idaho State Legislature which I couldn't access But there was a report in the Idaho Capital Sun.

He called it sickening. He called it evil. Then he signed the two harshest laws in the country. No hesitation. In March 2025, Idaho Governor Brad Little signed two laws that together created the harshest punishment framework for child sex offenders in the country. HB 380 made sexual abuse of children under 12 a capital crime punishable by death when at least three aggravating factors are present. HB 37 made the firing squad Idaho's primary method of execution, replacing lethal injection as the default. Both laws take effect on July 1, 2026. When signing HB 380, Little said: "The sexual abuse of children is sickening and evil, and perpetrators convicted of these crimes deserve the ultimate punishment." The House passed the death penalty bill 63 to 0. The Senate followed 30 to 5. Before HB 380, Idaho had no mandatory minimum sentences for child sex abuse. The state is spending $950,000 to retrofit its maximum security prison near Kuna for firing squad executions, and construction is already underway.
