I'd actually be able to do better consulting the letter frequency table (and also heeding it). I'll come clean if I do it again.

How did you hit on the correct one immediately? Do you have a system for that too? I wouldn't be surprised mind. :smile:

EDIT: And I'm of course assuming SWRD is a typo.

It was the best filter (or one of the best?) out of the possible answers. My program actually suggested POUTY.

@Orodruin 's game most likely used the same strategy (except he actually calculates the probabilities for the filters, as I only do it for the seed word).

Yes. Corrected now, thank you.

Yes, it was the best filter among the remaining possibilities. I don’t remember if it was a tie or not.
