Feel like this was a good save

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Had a late start today due to a stomach bug but lovely trail of Ns. A bit of PTSD from yesterday’s double letter party.

Bad 3rd guess - if I thought about it a bit more I could have eliminated far more options and (probably) gotten it in 4. Oh well.

 

[storrsroars]

Yeah, surprised the hell out of me, too.

Nice grid

 

[HuskyHawk]

Great scores today. I am happy with this 4 given my start and my wrong guess of "GLAND" (which is a more NYT word)

[storrsroars]

Sadly, had to resort to the trick to not bust. Now at ten 6s vs eight 2s.

 

[uconn1999]

7 come 11

[HuskyHawk]

Barely scraped in with a 6.

A few of you were fortunate, it wasn’t River

I knew it couldn't be, but there were 11 other choices it could have been, so I still got pretty lucky. I was toying with "giver" or "diver."

"Fiver" I only associate with Watership Down.

I think of it as UK slang for a five pound note. But in hindsight, that means it wasn't a great guess. I had eliminated giver. You were fortunate to eliminate N in word two or you'd probably have my problem. I assume most would go N before V.

[storrsroars]

Took awhile before I landed on "_edge" as the only viable solution, but at least four possible first letters, thus "whole".

[HuskyHawk]

No threes today I'd expect. Thought my third guess was brilliant, but alas.

 

[iri10]

Today, for some reason, I got fixated on the idea that the word would be some obnoxious word with rare and/or repeating letters. That didn't work out well for me, but then I got a lucky 1 in 5 guess on my 5th guess, lol:

 

[storrsroars]

Spent a ton of time trying to come up with something that included i or a, couldn't think of anything. So closed my eyes, pulled the trigger on the oo, and damned if it didn't work.
