I think you should have to...Write every common English word where 'Y' is the only vowel (the internet claims there are 30 such words) five times each on a chalk/white board & post a pic.

...You don't have to come up with all 30 on your own. It's OK if you look them up. I mean, you cheated on an internet game. You didn't rob a bank!

(Although, it may be fun exercise to see how many you can think of before looking them up.)

I went ahead an unhid your comments; I hope you don't mind.

That is agreeable! I'll accept help on the 30 words. Off hand, here are some:

GLYPH
BY
CRY
WRY
TRY
PRY
SHY
DRY
FRY
MY
FLY

I'm in a rush to get out of here, so I'll think of more later. Again, I'll accept help on the list, but will do the actual writing myself.

Not sure how you narrowed it down to those 2 words. There were a total of five common words PRI-E and your choice of PRICE still left you with 4 words. So, yes, good guess!
