I had a go today. Unlucky with that 1st letter James.

By several orders of magnitude, this was the hardest one I've done so far. It took me about 20 minutes to think of a viable third word. The fourth one was an act of desperation, I didn't even think it would be in the word list. I had to break my rule and attempt a word I knew couldn't be the solution for the fifth. I was staggered when I realised the solution.

But at least I got it in the end, even if it took about an hour.

I took a few hours break after the third line...came back and got it in a few seconds...seemed obvious...the brain works in mysterious ways...

If I'd thought another minute or so before deploying that third word, I would probably have got it in three. The solution was a more commonplace word.

I got it in 3.  What was your third guess?

There seems to be a lot of clones and variants now, but this musical intros one is keeping my attention:

You get a 1 second snippet of a song intro, you make a guess or can skip, then you get another second etc. You get 6 attempts before it's game over, like in Wordle. No strategy involved however, you either know it or you don't!

Took a long time to think of the solution after the first two goes, today. Was trying to think of a noun.
