What’s your longest streak so far?

**STERN**  
**CLOUD**  
**GIMPY**  
**HAWKS** — _my standard set of 4 guesses left me high and dry._  
_From here it could be **belle bevel bezel jewel kvell levee level**._  
**JEWEL** — _after choosing **jewel** I realized that this was not the best choice to try. Only 1 of those words had W while 4 had V. I am fast running out of guesses._  
_From here it could be **bevel bezel level**. And of those three, **level** is the most common word._  
**LEVEL** — _DAMN._
