A weird one today where locking in the PRO early seems to be a disadvantage since there are so many incorrect PRO guesses to go through if you haven’t eliminated many consonants.

Yep, another piece of evidence you shouldn't keep guessing the same first three letters over and over.

I’m glad I eliminated so many consonants first. But lucky I eliminated the oo right before because I’m sure I would’ve done proof instead. Looking at the letters I tried a few and realized it has to be proxy, was sweating when I hit enter though

 

also got lucky to knock out some consonants early so there weren’t many options once I got the PR.

 

finally lost one.

There have been a few people who have admitted to taking L's. the Double letter one from a few weeks ago got me.

 

Starting with the wordl word did not help this time

I’ll gladly broadcast my defeat when it occurs. Thought today was the day.

He only hadn’t used J, M, P, Q, U, V, X, Y, Z.

PROXY was literally the only possible 5 letter word unless there was a double R or O which would’ve added just PROMO and VROOM

 

This was def the toughest one yet but still managed to get it on my 4th guess. Was starting to worry a bit with how few letters I hit early. Basically just went with words to narrow down which vowels I could use.

stare
bring
crump
proxy

 

Was gonna guess on the 4th choice but since there’s no point system/incentive to do so I went through the motions to be sure. Knew it ended in OXY and it couldn’t be epoxy.

 

the incentive is to have better stats showing you got the words right in fewer guesses. I guess making sure you get it right is the primary goal though

 

respect for not cheating, i feel there are some sus individuals that get scared near the end and are weak.

 

4th guess was 50/50 with promo or proxy

 

For those that chose proxy before an open proud, prowl, prove, or proof:

just understand that my eyebrows are raised… I’m not saying you cheated.. but just understand that my eyebrows are raised.

 

A lot of them eliminated E, D, and L. I did proxy over proof because I don't think about double letters.

But some of these proxy guesses are sus
