Secret word: POLARITY
Scrambled word: DUMPS
Posted by: Debra Hamel | July 16, 2006 at 11:12 AM
Polarity was a toughie, wasn't it? I should have had all the letters by the end of the second row but I overlooked the 't'. I tried random placements on the third row since it was wasted anyway and still I had only one letter in place - the 'y' - by the end of that row. I couldn't figure it out before starting the fourth row, but lucked out choosing 'p' first. After that it became easier. 4 guesses. The Scrambled word took me 11 clicks.
The Set, 2 minutes, 51 seconds.
