Okay, when I open this page - I see a blank box with a space to fill in my guess - I see no clues. This text can supposedly be any length at all, therefore billions and billions is a possibility (if you don't understand probability then you won't follow that).
Also, with hangman (at least the version I play) - you know three facts: 1) how many letters are in it and 2) what the subject of the word is (i.e. film) 3) everytime you guess, you guess a letter, if that letter doesn't appear in the text you are told.
I haven't bothered to read the code, I'm going on what I see at the demo.
