...wait...are you sure BROWN scores 1? It'd be 0 for -L---...

And from BLOND and FROND both score 1, since L is true, B-OND is wrong, so F is the only possible right in FROND, thus 1st is F

And now...FLAKE

FLOWN

If 2, then FLU-- must be right.

KNOCK - 0 eliminates O from the middle letter, and SCION - 0 does the same for the O in fourth position.

That leaves BL-ND - 1 from BLOND, FR-ND - 1 from FROND and BL--D - 1 from BLOOD.

If the N is right, then BL--D would be wrong from BLOND, leaving no letters for BLOOD, so the N must be wrong.

SHOWN - 0 shows that WN is wrong, so FL--- - 2, meaning FL must be right.

WOUND - 1, but ND is wrong and WO occupy space for FL, so only the U is left, leaving FLU--.

FLU--

However, if FLOWN - 0, then BRU-- must be right.

If D were correct, then BLON- would be wrong from BLOND - 1, but BLOWN - 1 needs one of BLO to be correct, so the D cannot be right.

FLOWN - 0, means that -R--- - 1 from FROND - 1, leaving just the R. So the R must be right.

If the R is right, then the L cannot be right in BLOND - 1 and with the OND already disproved, that leaves the B.

BR---

But would the ND removed from WOUND - 1 and the BR taking WO's spot, that leaves --U-- - 1, so U must be third.

BRU--

Edit: I think the logic sound based on what I was working with, but my data was a little dated by the time I finished it... :rolleyes:

FLUKE - ?

If FLUKE scores 3 then... FLU??

BLOOD=1 & FLOOD=2 proves F???? as the only change (L already proven)

FLAKE=2 & FLUKE=3 proves ??U?? as the only change

:):mad: Damn this dual posting is driving me mental.

and I just realized, that 3rd must be U:given FL (see above posts for that), BLOND is wrong except for L: thus ---ND is wrong. With WOUND=1 and 1st 2 letters given as FL, U is the only other possibly correct letter left.

So now guessing FLUTE:

If the scores between FLUKE and FLUTE are different, then 4th is that of the word that got more, if they're the same, then 5th is E* since K/T made no difference. And if one of them scores 5, then clearly the E is still correct...

* unless it was 3, in which case we only ruled out some letters... (that's the edit)
