I didn't waste any moves, and guessed all the words correctly, and still only had one move to spare. They should allow more moves for this game.

I don't think I've ever earned 5 stars on the deluxe waffle. It is challenging.

Jude.. really, or are you teasing? *twitch* I would find it difficult to play in 'hard' mode. I really like having options; to take a stab at the possibilities or narrow them down.

It often lets me play weird words that I don't think is really a word, but today's fourth word was the best: ahole.

Over too soon. I think I like the slow, steady progress of one letter reveal at a time as Jude said a few posts ago.

And V, lol! I can’t believe it accepted ahole.
