Wasn't sweating it today! Not only did my second word find the structure of the word, it also eliminated all but four possibilities, according to Wordlebot. I picked the right one to win in 3.

Haven't sweated things out like this in a while. This is one of the few structures which allows for so many second letters.

A good 4, even if it is slightly worse than the average. And I might have rushed my effort today. On my third guess, I chose a word which had never been used before. It was wrong, but it also narrowed possibilities to one (which I got).

My first consecutive 3s in a while! I established the structure with my first word, and eliminated letters with my first two. Then I saw a couple possibilities, but only one which hadn't been used before. And look at that - it was the winner!

Another 4. Even though it's a bit worse than the average, I felt better after reading Wordlebot's analysis. The bot and I (there's a Broadway show with that name, eh?) followed the same path.
Again, the second guess pointed the way, but I lost the coin toss.

A 4, which is virtually the average. I'm happy with the effort. First word gave me only one positive clue. Second gave me several more (including probing for position). According to Wordlebot, that left three possibilities; I saw two, and chose correctly!

Too many possibilities to start. Then after the second guess, I figured out four possibilities (at least). Two of them had never been previously used. Luckily, I chose correctly.

Finally, I'm back to a 3. A quick rearranging of the 3 yellows gave me a second word. And that gave me the answer without having to think very much. Woohoo!
