I was happy to be playing least solved first because I had no idea what PLA\_T could be other than plant. Unfortunately I got dropped into a pretty tough trap, followed by a tough word. By the end I had revealed the I but have no idea what a plait is.

Some tough words today in both games. Toady was a double mistake; not sure why I didn’t play today ahead of toady. Of course A was confirmed to not be in third position, but also not in fourth position either, so it was going to be a mistake either way.

I knew it wasn’t REBAR because I’d already canceled out the R in the first slot. DEBAR was the only thing that made any sense. I was thinking maybe it’s similar to DISBAR?

Daunt is obnoxious. Nobody uses the word daunt. Daunting, sure. Dauntless, maybe. But daunt all by itself? Bullshit. It would be like someone unironically saying they are whelmed. Try searching the SDMB for anybody ever using the word daunt in a sentence.

Once I had clinched a fail I just answered the other two that were obvious.
