Which reminds me… You all seem reluctant to show your MO. Is there a specific reason?

Too many words ending with the same letters and I don't have a list of previously played words because I never looked for one :H

Guess 4 here is where you should consider making an "information guess" - a guess that you know is not the solution but that guarantees solving the puzzle before losing.

Mine changes every few months. Mostly how I generate seed words. I used to be a prolific programmer, but have lately* been having trouble with IDE's, so I just trudge along with a spreadsheet.

*Lately? Ha! It's been 17 years.

Well it’s a little sad but at least you’re keeping busy. I wont pretend my life is any better, my interests just lie elsewhere.
Thank god you didn't say it was really or very sad, as before I retired I went to the movies about once every 10 years, and watched almost no television. I have lived what I would call a nearly 'perfect life'*.

So where do your interests lie?

ps. I only scrolled back this far as I was curious what kuruman's seed word was.

*
1. saved someones life when I was only 6 years old
2. was never directly responsible for someone else's death
3. tried to maximize both my and acquittances fun in between
4. didn't kill myself during the difficult times
