Personally, I never trust my own spelling. XD You never know, you could always hit a wrong key or something. So I always copy and paste the answer, even if it's something simple.

I would recommend people to copy paste item names from the catalog when its something complex like that. That way you can't get it wrong. Unless of course you copy paste the wrong item for the answer.

Plaid, it wasn't a bug. You typed Robyn's Baby. The answer was Robyn`s Baby. The difference is in the apostrophe for exactly the reason you mentioned - the item is called Robyn`s Baby because the site parses apostrophes oddly.

Uh, I guessed the last one correctly (the one whose answer you just published) and the system told me I guessed incorrectly. I think when I type apostrophes, alacrity is parsing them as slash-apostrophe. So when I typed Robyn's Baby, alacrity parsed my typing as Robyn/'s Baby. Can this be fixed so I don't miss more riddles because of this?<br /> <br /> Example of why I think this is happening: I made the trial Sky's Turning Blue, and the system added a slash next to the apostrophe that I didn't put there: http://www.alacritysim.com/agilitytrials.php?id=67732&action=ran<br /> <br /> (I'm also submitting this as a bug, but I thought this would be relevant as a comment to the Riddler in case anyone else has been having this problem. Sucks not to win because of site code.)

YAY, I finally got a riddle! This one is quite clever... I have a background I've been wanting now. Yay!

I really liked this one- It was clever and I had to think about it, but it had one clear, sensible. :D

That sucks, I guessed Robyn's baby too. We shouldn't have to copy and paste it from the item catalogue to get it correct, those who used proper grammar should have it counted as a win as well. -.-

It wasn't Robyn's Baby. It was Robyn`s Baby. See the difference? The apostrophe is the key.

I... wat. :I<br /> I guessed Robyn's Baby but got it wrong because I used an apostrophe instead of a ` ??
