I got grumpy this morning and just flung in random words to get the answer :))

My inability to think on the spot is a massive hinderance here.

I found it very difficult today; I ended up with so few letters left that I could only really make one or two words.

The thing to remember is there’s no time limit, you have all day! I have been writing stuff out to try before committing to my online guesses.

This demonstrates far more patience than I am blessed with :)) My approach to life is if I am not immediately good at something, I hate it.

Yes, I took my time this morning, trying things out on paper too.
The thing is, though, I'm so obsessed that I'm in a bit of a hurry to get it done so I can get on with the rest of my day! I don't know if I could leave it for half a day and come back to it. I'll try.

This is the correct way to approach things :yes:

I haven't written anything down, but I have left it a couple of hours and come back to it if I'm down to a last guess or two.

I have Smunder's attitude but also that I don't want to be beatedn.
If your back's against the wall, turn around and write on it.

I gave up today because I messed up twice. There's something about the format of that word that I struggle with and it took me ages.

I think I'd find it much easier to write it out. I'm going to do that tomorrow and also try to be more patient.

I did it in 4 today. Like Pip I am starting to write down the correct and incorrect letters on a piece of paper!

4 today but only because I read the thread between lines 3 and 4. I could not get the vowels in the right place.

I found that really hard! By the end I was stuck with letters that seemed impossible.

I was about to post a photo of my two pages of hopeless scribbles trying to logically work through it but will spare you due to spoilerage.

Also the two yellows are the same two letters. I couldn't get them in the right place or get any other letters.

This is why it took me 8 hours the other day. I’ll have a look at it over breakfast and pop in a starting word then go away and think about it and have another go over lunch.

I failed badly today and it took all my goes.

I have thought about that. I'll take a pad and pen to bed as I like to try and do it first thing as I don't get much chance to think during the day :)) :yes:
Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either, just fuck off and leave me alone.

I went chasing off on quite the wrong tack and ruled out a letter I hadn’t actually tried :duh:
