Not bad. I like your start word.You're really in the zone!

EDIT: Remember to use the word "pen-testing" a lot! It makes you sound genuinely hacky!

Hahaha of course I was in the zone: it was, after all, running around like a maniac wrangling about 60 children who were coding with one of my best friends for 12 hours - I was very much in the hacky zone!

I did not expect guess #4 to actually work...
