Dagnabbit!
Is that a real word?

Was unduly lucky yesterday, second guess was TENOR leaving a dozen possibilities, was about to type in BUYER when a news story on the cyber ninjas came on TV. CYBER hadn’t even been on my list of potential words but was a better eliminator than BUYER.

Starting word gave some good info, but I played the second word to try to get more letters. It turned out to be a lucky choice.

I suppose it's a real word, but I think of it as a prefix, like "ultra".

I suppose it's a real word, but I think of it as a prefix, like "ultra".

The OED defines it as an adjective, as well as a prefix.

ULTRA has already been used, but you’re right, cumbersome to use CYBER as an adjective

No hits on the start word, but enough on the second word to make a guess which was correct.
