If new letters, I think we should definitely check if some of those S's and H's fit, for instance, and maybe get more. And another vowel.

So, considering how difficult this one is, I'd like to note that the following prisoners have contributed:

Prisoner 920077
Prisoner 277058
Prisoner 413022
Prisoner 208986
Prisoner 650829
Prisoner 740359

The following prisoners have commented on it but not contributed:

Prisoner 640326
Prisoner 813142

And the following haven't said anything:

Prisoner 379949
Prisoner 509378
Prisoner 513538
Prisoner 980854

Should we fail, I think this information will be useful. I will not be voting to remove anyone from the first list, and even those in the second are ok, I know some people aren't fans of the decode. But that third group? Yeah. The last groupa mugs who tried to ride my coattails ended up on their backs staring at the roof of the church #apologiestoDMX

I took out the "in my" that went with "ear" as the whole word grouping could be wrong.

The -l------ seems like it is likely a word ending in "ing". Like planning or something like that. I like the thought about plot being slot or slit. Light shining through a slit feels prison-y.

And kudos to whoever got the flavourless food, that's genius.

Also, if anyone feels that I misrepresented them on my list, please say so. I may have made a mistake, it's hard when we are all just numbers.

Prisoner 208986 wrote:e,t,a,o,i,n,s,h,r are the highest frequency letters in the english language according to wikipedia. So I agree with "a" and "s" and think about the other letters listed if we get to choose three. Who knows, we may only get to choose one - depends on how diabolical the hosts want to be. There may be another letter that would be in high frequency when talking about jails but I don't know what it would be.

I will bite your ear off and flush it down the toilet bucket. You know damned well that this prison operates on a multi-layered schedule, so quit protecting yourself with these tripe passive-aggressive attacks on absolutely anyone you can find to attack.

I hope that worked. Can't even see the image. Awesome.

Prisoner 208986 wrote:Okay somebody pick a color who uses the black screen cause thats what most people use. Just please don't pick that green cause I can't see it on my pro silver screen. 813 since you're here why don't you pick.

I think this is where we are at. I left the spots that don't seem certain in dead red. Please check for mistakes!

Meh, we're all trying our best here, I don't care which way we do it. I only care about how few of us are trying.
