      • Why not guess a letter???
        Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

        • A letter guess now would be pointless. The only other words I can see are hying and dying.

            Only good choice was Y. However, as long as it is a -ying word (is there another possibility? I don't see one) there is no benefit in waiting.

            I'm gambling he wouldn't choose dying (if indeed it is -ying) as it's just not as fiendish as vying. Never heard of hying.

            • Hie means to move quickly. Hying is the gerund/present participle form.

              • I still think vying is the best bet.

                  • Actually i'd not be surprised to see a brit scholar like Drogue use a word like Hying. But it's a 1/3 chance in the scheme of things ...

                        I know.

                        It's still useful to explain the thought process, as some people don't see the difference between greedy guesses and may-as-well-go-for-it guesses.
