Pure luck. I'm currently rotating through 40 seed words, all containing only the top 11 letters, and being ranked 99 or better overall.

letter ranks as of August 7, 2025:

470​

409​

Why the top 11? Because the list of the top 11 includes all vowels. So why did I include 'N'? Because it was numerically very close to 'U's count.

I find AINTS almost always good choices. Perhaps a left-over habit from playing Scrabble where I'd include G to be able to score a full word ending in ING or INGS.

Wow! That looks pretty (I was about to say suspicious) well guessed in the last step there but I guess you have them eliminated Sherlock Holmes-style. :smile:
