Something about a 3 life grace period for new players. Maybe delete the thing about using the search function as well?

1884. Western Red-billed Hornbill

Not quite sure how you're wanting that to work Will?

Do you mean they only sit out for 3 posts, or....

if they clock up 3 wrong entries they then have to sit out for 10?

.... and how long are they 'new' for?

Everyone is allowed to make 3 wrong guesses without sitting it out. After the 3rd wrong guess then it's the 10 post rule

How does this sound?

As the thread is now so far advanced the rules have been slightly amended:

1. You have to have seen the bird
2. You mustn't repeat a bird that someone else has already named
4. You are allowed to make 3 wrong entries, after the 3rd wrong entry then you must sit it out for the next 10 birds.
5. You can't post straight after yourself
6. Where possible, try to link the bird name you propose with the previous species on the thread.

If you approve it, I'll edit the opening post.
