If E is the only vowel, and in the middle, ?MEND is likely, but no consonant goes before M there - but a vowel does > **AMEND** > MANED, MINED, and EMEND are the only other possibles. Scoredle also bags the eagle. A near-gimme is a different kind of challenge - I put more skull sweat into this than you would think. ---

You don’t get that many good shots at the deuce, so you want to take full advantage of those opportunities, and not blow them just because you didn’t think it through. ---
