Today's was very tough, I wasn't even sure it was a word but based on what I knew it was the only possibility

Edit to add:  After thinking about it, yeah it's a word, just not one that I really use or hear used (although I can think of a couple of times)

I got it in two. Lenny would have also, knowing his first word I suspect.

Count me among those who found today challenging. I got it in four, but I took an eternity to guess it.

Took me all six tries and I was sweating bullets. First time in a very long time it took me six tries  ~X(

Today's was a tough one. Took all 6 to finally get it.

It was tough. I got it in 5, but only because I had 3 letters out of the gate and by the 5th try, I had so few letters left to work with, it was about the only word I could even come up with that was an actual word

Same with me. Took me six despite having four greens after the fourth guess.

They're definitely trying to make some of these words trickier these days. Very different from a couple months ago.

I've never heard the word used even once in my lifetime. Although, put "un" in front and I've heard it used, but never without that prefix. When I put it in, I didn't believe it was really a word, but lo and behold...it was  :crazy:

I am pretty sure you can't have an "un" if what is being negated isn't also a word.  It's just funny how this is one of those words whose use has fallen into disfavor while the "un" version continues to be used.

Took me six too. There were three other words that fit the three letters I had.

Using the un creates a word that isn

Took me six today after several wrong guesses and 3-4 letters.

It's sort of funny, I had 3 letters correct on my first guess.   I studied it a bit and decided there were too many possible combinations left with the two remaining letters that I used my second establishing word.   That gave me the last 2 letters in position so guess number 3 was a slam dunk
