grr, this would've been a 6 except I had no info to break the ambiguity between STATE/TERSE and STAVE/VERSE. these ambiguities in the puzzle are frustrating. I flipped a coin for whether to guess T or V, and wasn't lucky

boo! 3 down is a spanish word, not an english word.
but also if i'd re-checked my assumptions each guess i made at the end, i would've caught the mistake and gotten 7. too hasty

very disappointed in myself! had i been paying more attention while entering what i believed to be the solution, i would have noticed my one-letter mistake in time to fix.
can't feel too bad tho... just had a streak of 15 games <=7.

This was so hard. I was stuck, stuck, stuck. And then I literally flipped a coin to decide between two guesses for the top word, which I had no confidence in... and it was right, and then I got it! There's always one word you're not thinking of that's the key to the whole puzzle.

guessed 1 down wrong
I was most worried about the word in the third row. From what I had, it was the only remotely wordlike object I could think of, but I gotta say it's not something I expect to see in a word game.
I've played 51 games now, and still no 6. It seems to me that you would have to either have a lot of luck with the first guess, or have a way to complete two words with one guess. That's why I thought for a while that not deploying the E right away might help (because it's so common and so often occurs in the same positions).
