Interesting - I thought this would be harder than the 1-letter-missing quiz, but the answers here came more easily.

I figured the same, hence the bump up to three minutes. I wonder if it was necessary?

Agreed. I blew through the one-letter versions in about 25 seconds each. This one required a lot more thought.

The one letter quizzes are gimmes, easy. This one was tough and I did not get them all within the time limit.

It also means those that cheated on the one letter quizzes can't do the same here !!!!

I find that the ones that already are a word are the hardest (pact, quid, legal, scene) - but these all rank really high on the % correct stats!

The only one I missed was Liquid in the end, but still surprising to me.

Fun quiz. I did fairly well by thinking about which ones might be vowels and which ones might be consonants.

8/24. This is tough. Even if I had a whole hour, I probably wouldn’t really have guessed more than half of them.

The first two are actually the names of the most recent North Korean leaders!
