Frickin' A. Yesterday I had the word in three guesses, but was going to sit down and double check before pressing enter and then forgot, resetting my streak again. Then today I guessed between two words for my fourth guess that I thought were pretty obscure but were all I had left with half the alphabet eliminated and just two yellows to show for it, and I guessed wrong. I should have used the "Which of these two obscure words is a pencil-necked NYT commie editor more likely to know?" eliminator.
