I don't think I've seen so many vowels eliminated in all my years of playing
the 6-letter word game...

Yup, that would be all that's left, I think.

Last night when I made the guess I thought when I login next time, it would
be a new word to figure out! Atleast now, it looks like that..I think 'rhumba'
is the word..I can't think of any other word..

You people are awfully sharp... Was hoping you weren't getting
discouraged as all your guesses were plausible (ones I would have
guessed, too, were I not running the game). Quite an interesting trail
of results, though. Anyway...
rhumba 6 (albaugh) ---> Ding! Ding! Ding! Winner!
Congratulations, albaugh, you're up!

You'd think that with all those 6's in response #666 it would be clear that
six letters were required. But maybe the evil of that number affected the
submitter... :-) And since kentn made a good faith guess after another's
guess (tho invalid), I guess I'll be a nice guy and process his guess, even
tho he gets 2 in a row... ;-)

Hey, it's not up to me to pronounce someone else's guess
accceptable or not (and I figured you could let them amend
it where it stood). Anyway, thanks...
