I didn't expect those three "words" accepted on rows 3, 4 & 5 to be accepted. Perhaps, I was just angry because I think I'd tried ELVIN rather ELFIN. Nice game that I can recall that much.

They produced interactive fiction. Anyway, one of the writers used the word ELVIN instead of ELFIN in one of his games. He got so much teasing from the other writers for doing that. To this day, I get confused if Elvin or Elfin is correct.

Good clinch and save it was. 👍😎
