Move the I over to the middle, but not many comcons will fit into this pattern… and I should really try an E as well. SLINE, SLIRE are nowhere, but I can try an M… > S **LIM** E β†’ Looks a little trappish, but not that much will fit.

Scoredle had the exact same sequence as I did from the start word, so I got that going for me. ---
