Click on them when you match them to clear them from the board. Be sure the tiles don’t have another tile on top of them, and make sure they’re not surrounded by tiles; the tiles have to be available to be clicked upon.

Elwin: Mobbed!
Dear Hailey, I just made it back to my bus after a really scary experience! I’d finished my concert and then I went out back to sign some autographs like I always do. The thing is, tonight seemed to be a much bigger crowd than I’m used to and when I went outside without any warning everyone seemed to surge forward at once! As more and more fans crowded in, some of them started screaming my name. I know you’re probably thinking that sounds kind of cool, and that’s what I would have thought too, but it was not cool, Hail. Not cool at all! I was really starting to get frightened. There were so many fans, all screaming and pushing in on me, but suddenly a couple of my roadies pushed their way through the crowd and surrounded me. Roadies are the crew who help set up each concert. They’re big, burly fellas who spend all their time lugging heavy equipment around, so they’re really strong and they were able to form a circle around me and guide me to the bus. They held off the fans while I climbed aboard, and then we tried to drive out of … Read more

I’ve also heard murmurings that sometimes Purr-Cilla doesn’t always get along with all of the ‘Kinz and I thought that we could address those rumors here today. Purr-Cilla, welcome. Purr-Cilla: Wow! I was wondering when you were going to get around to interviewing someone that the readers would REALLY like to hear about. Ella McWoof: Um, well, I think the readers are anxious to learn about a lot of the residents of Kinzville, but maybe you could tell us a little about the contributions you made to the School Council. Purr-Cilla: What DIDN’T I do is more like it. I practically carried the council all year last year. Salley is not exactly management material, but I was able to keep it together and work with her and in the end I guess we made an okay team. I think there was just a little confusion about who should have been president and who should have been vice-president but whatever. Ella McWoof: You know, sometimes I hear talk around town that … Read more
