Oh! What a nice present on Christmas Eve. Guessing I haven't been too naughty this year. :angel:

But how could I ignore the data?
Because it is not data in your case. It is changing the hypothesis you are testing to suit your picture better. To be scientific you need to choose a fixed hypothesis and stick to it.

πŸŸ©β¬›πŸŸ¨πŸŸ¨β¬› [STEAL] 7 left: SAFER SANER SAUCE SEPIA SHARE SPARE SUAVE
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 [SHARE] most probable

That is a nice gift for Christmas!

I could have used either SAFER or SANER to find them all but SHARE and SPARE, or I could have used SHARE or SPARE with the reverse effect. I really liked SHARE for the H present, and it sounds Christmassy. I doubt SANER was the answer, either.

Also, isn't it funny I start with STEAL and end up with SHARE in 2 words? It's a Christmas miracle!

β¬›πŸŸ¨β¬›β¬›β¬› [LINTY] filter - 3 left: AFFIX AVOID MAFIA
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 [AFFIX] most probable

First mistake: I begin with yesterday's word, so I won't obviously get it in one try.

For my 3rd guess, I was sure it wasn't MAFIA, and AVOID seemed a little negative, so I went with AFFIX.

Between all 9 possible solutions, with today's solution as a 2nd guess, I could have solved it for 4 different solutions but I went with the suggested word by my program that could solve it for 5 different solutions instead. πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ
