I really enjoy playing Hang Stan, but I've been bothered by some misspellings in the answers.
For example, it spells the Kim Carnes' song "Bette Davis Eyes" as "Betty Davis Eyes". or "Still of the Night" by "Whitensake" as opposed to "Whitesnake". I noticed at least one other one, but I can't think of it at the moment.
Come on, Grab! In a hangman-style game, the answer should have the correct spelling! 
Also, the randomizer in the game seems off, or they don't have enough puzzles. I frequently get the same puzzle twice in the same game. 
Anyone else notice these?

Yes, I've noticed it, too!
And also - sometimes when you have to guess the phrase "Don't go breaking my heart" by Elton John and Kiki Dee, the Dee is missing!

Two more errors - Rod Stewart's song is "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy", not "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy", and the movie title should be spelled "Forrest Gump". Sheesh!

In regards to the Kiki Dee one, there are two puzzles. One of them is correct.
I got hosed on one of those one time. I had a large amount points and then "lost" on that puzzle. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr............

To me as well with the Beastie Boys one, we have submitted this as a problem to our programmers. Not just with the one BB issue, but with the mispellings of many words. All the examples I submitted were taken from the feedback in this thread.[/quote wrote:

I have played 4 games sometimes just to get one game played because of these mistakes. You would think that after all of this time this game would be fixed. It has been like this since I joined grab.

Don't forget about Bananarama being spelled Banarama for Cruel Summer. 
I'm pretty sure there's another one or two errors not already mentioned that I've seen, but I can't think of them at the moment.

I had the album, It IS Da Ya Think I'm Sexy.
Although Rod Sings it If you like my body, and you think I'm sexy....Then sings Do ya, Do ya, Do ya think I'm sexy. But that's is how it was titled in the record.
However, It really bugs me when I see Donny Osmond's Go Away Mule Girl, when it should be Go Away Little Girl. ---What are the editor's thinking?
