(Yet another reason to feel sorry for anyone trying to learn written English.) Results on puzzles like this really depend on how lucky you are with identifying the critical letter before identifying the pattern.

Yesterday, I told Karma13612 that it's rare for the first two guesses to eliminate all but one word, but this is like the third time it's happened to me in a couple of weeks. Looks impressive, but it was pure luck, and I'll say again that a 3 always requires some luck.

You might not have gotten it if you hadn't eliminated those consonants.
I'd be very happy with that five, knowing I'd played strategically.
