That mistake had "ping" in place of "surface" - Edge, Word, Bing, and Ping are types of software

I don't know about "hedge" being the same as "see-saw", "waver", and "yo-yo"; the later three refer to switching back and forth between two things.


On a Connections-related note, the host of Only Connect, the British quiz show that includes this as part of it, just gave birth. The two notable things about it are, (a) she didn't tell anybody until after she gave birth (and nobody noticed), and (b) she's 51.

Something strange keeps happening when I post results; every now and then, I get the "two diamonds with question marks" in place of a square. Even when I copy a line of squares from another post in the thread, it happens.

I get well over 20 words possible after your second guess. You are remarkably good at guessing the word and getting these low scores every day. I am sure your average is well below the best bots.
