and I learned today that a letter CAN repeat in a word. I initially thought all five letters had to be unique.

I did, too. I thought the final word was a brand name, so I didn't even try it until I threw away my 5th guess.

TTBOMK you're the second poster who got it in two.

Funny that, in both cases, chances are very good that we can guess the first attempt.

Tomorrow I'm going to start with "CH"!

I bet that if you clicked on that you will get a plain puzzle. Any really smart people want to CLUE ME IN??????

I've figured out that a N has to be in either the 1st or 2nd slot and an O can be in the 3rd or 5th

I have these letters left: Q U G J K L Z X V B M

So it's a word that has to have the vowel O and maybe the vowel U

If you tell me I promise I'll go sit in the closet for penance.

Word starts with kn and ends with a repeated LLetter. You may not be able to play the last one now as we’re already into tomorrow’s/todays.
