Agree that it was a stupid word. I really lucked out and got it in three. It was the first word that popped into my mind once I had the last two letters right. After I typed it in and hit enter I realized there's a bunch of other words that would have fit that were a lot more common and a lot more likely. So once again, stupid luck

The joke I told yesterday was so funny that,
apparently, HR wants to hear it tomorrow  :laugh:

Got it in 5. The first letter was very elusive. 3 attempts to get it.

I had all the letters except the first one in three, so it was easy to get it in 4.
I HATE TO INCLUDE THE WORD NASTY< BUT THAT IS PART OF BEING A WINNING FOOTBALL TEAM.

Got it in 4. Letters fell pretty good today.

Same here. First choice I had two letters out of order. Second choice I got the first letter right and the other two that were initially out of order were still in yellow. But rearranging the two initial letters that were out of place, it just hit me so when I put in my third guess, they all flipped green. Feels good to get a tough word in three tries

I can just imagine on the other side of this there is a person or persons watching the stats every day and trying to find words that create the most misses

It might happen  ~X(

As for me, I figure anyone who raised a couple of daughters is really familiar with the word. If not for my daughters, I'd have been clueless. Hope that doesn't spoil it for someone who hasn't played yet today  :(

I don't think the word is all that obscure.  I think there are certain tactics they use to try and make it harder.   Using letters more than once is one tactic.  Having words start or end with uncommon letters is another.   Unusually letter pairings are another.  Words that contain uncommon letters are another.
