I love the 'guess my word' game BUT today when I hit the 'I give up' button it sent me to an outside website! Not cool!

Yeah, it looks like that's a bug that I'll fix this weekend. Thanks for reporting this!

Also the external website it sends you to is Duck duck go, which is basically a privacy safe Google.

Best, Ryan

Ryan, Thanks for getting back to me. It was odd & it was the first time that happened.

Okay, should be fixed now! Sorry about that (my web framework is doing something pretty weird 🤷

Yeah, it happened because I recently added in a link to look up the word's definition, however, there seems to be a bug in the JS framework that I use that was causing this link to get clicked on accident afterwards. I reported the bug to the framework makers, but in the meantime I did find a way to prevent it from opening the link on "give up".

Cheers, Ryan
