Nah, we really really need those costly twice a week sessions and years to get ourselves sorted, really. Otoh, Vrede Envy is a serious and debilitating condition. It's just such an impossibly high standard to achieve :wave:

Yeah, my frustrated intentional Useless came on 5/6.
Spoiler:

It placed the second E for me, but I still floundered for a bit. A double double letter just didn't occur to me. Ironic given our ongoing conversation. Maybe talk with your therapist about these double letter issues we're having, please.
Does it represent some darker internal conflict?

I'm almost afraid to ask how the crowd did. It wouldn't seem to be that difficult a solve. Too bad people don't report minutes wasted invested, too.

We were below average.

The solve rate was 4.1.

3.9% failure rate, a little above average.
Spoiler:
Guess my 4/6 double letter Useless was the right move as there were 5 possibilities before that.

Although GEESE left only one possible solution, some of this was luck: If the solution had been ENSUE, there still would have been two words to choose from. But you’ve narrowed it down to one possible solution. You should solve the puzzle on your next turn.

It makes (solution) that we were worse than average on this one. Ugh.
Good chance I was down to one possible solution, too.

My intentionally Useless 5/6 SCREE left me with SE__E.
Still took me a minute to see the solution :angry-banghead:

Forgetting a letter is the worst kind of totally Useless useless. At least you flopped in fewer minutes.

I LIBEL myself when I post that premature confidence is a PERIL. It's a dangerous (solution)-may-care attitude.
