Only a par score, but took just five minutes so I’ll take it.

TWERP didn’t occur to me–good one!

Hadn’t thought of Tebow in years, and my first thought was of Jimmy Fallon’s “Tebowie”

It’s the only time I hate Hard Mode, and yours is a good reason to avoid it. :slight_smile:

Frustrating one.

Roset was just rearranging the letters in store such that O was no longer in the center. Other than that, it’s a trap!

After 3 I knew where the O was and figured the E was likely in position 4. WOVEN and COVEN were all I could come up with as possibles.

I see DOZEN, OFTEN, TOKEN, WOKEN and WOVEN.
WOKEN - the only word of the five which would guarantee a 4 if it’s wrong. - assuming there aren’t other words.

Mine looks a lot like @GuanoLad’s. Almost a two, ended up a four.

WOKEN was my best guess at two, I think. It eliminated more of the words on my list of “EN” words than any other. From there it was just a coin flip. I’ve won a few of those lately, so I guess I was due to lose one.

No harm, no foul, another 4.

We used the same exact words for those three.

Tomorrow’s is a four. I’m okay with it.

COVEN → Not many consonants left…
WOVEN

Lot of elimination to get there…
