An empty row can be a lot of information too!

Yes, the second word is orthogonal to the first and populated with the next five most frequent letters. The probability that I get ten blanks after the first two choices is 0.017 and that also carries a lot of information because it leaves about 40 words as possible candidates.

I like how seriously you take this. If I didn't knew better I'd say you had even less of a life than me. :P

EDIT: But trust me: you dont.

Should obviosuly have skipped "thane". Dunno where that came from....

I think I thought 't' was more frequent than 'c' and though that may be true it wasn't the smartest move here.

As I said, wrong start-word. Where that one came from I really haven't the foggiest. Although I think I got back on track pretty fast. :P

Me too. Picked the wrong start word. But I guess that's an easy excuse.
