(Ya know...we need an automated version of the person who is "it"...
you enter the word to be guessed into a server-ish program and it
regularly checks this item for guesses and enters the results...
Hmmm...then we players could do the same thing except with automated
guessing...hmmm)

I don't think this game should be automated. That would take a lot
of the fun out of it for me.

(but why not? It seems like everything is becoming automated now, and we
humans will have to do less and less.)
(I really think this will make a good Agora topic. One sec while I figure
out how to enter an item for there from here.)

quinoa 6 (kentn)
hymnal 1 (aruba)
I'm befuddled! How'd you guess the word with the only letters used having
been the 'n' and the 'o'? What's your secret?1
I was hoping that this would be a much more challenging word than it seemed
to have been!

quinoa is a south american grain. Isn't a dybbuk a kind of "demon"?

quinoa
Quinoa is indeed a south american grain, favored among the Aztec for religious
and food purposes. It is extremely high in protein and has a nice nutty
flavor. I was introduced to this grain in 1988. It was very friendly.

OK...I have a word for you to guess...
(Once again, with many zeroes, reducing the possibilities for even a "2"
can sometimes be easy. And then there's luck...)
antler 0 (carson)
dybbuk 0 (srw)
bridle 1 (aruba)
quinoa 0 (other)
A summary of guesses on the current word can be found in
/u/kentn/letter.match.
