Got lucky, there were 4 5 possibilities left with 3 guesses left. (strikethrough doesn't work very well when it matches the crossbar on the 4, LOL. Thought of another after I had posted)

And another edit. Thinking about my relative success, I think I may know why in terms of those information theory videos I posted at the beginning of the thread.

My starter word started as a meme, and is *way* off of "ideal", but I think it may hold a property that overcomes that presumed weakness. What it *does* do is cut down the choice space on consonant combinations, since it contains letters that are more often than usual found in consonant pairings and blends. So even in cases where I blank the 1st 2 guesses, the consonants I have left really don't fit that well next to each other, so I have to look at spaced combos where the probable word stands out much more readily to me.

So in terms of the information theory videos I posted, instead of narrowing down the field of single letters, I'm narrowing the field of common letter combinations and patterns, and so what I have left tends to stand out more to my mind.
