Guess the word of the day. Guesses reveal where the word is positioned alphabetically. Everyone plays the same word each day.

Entirely fair and absolutely true. I’m pretty good with word puzzles usually, but I struggle with this one.

Perhaps an 8 if I’d have paid attention, but definitely a 9 because I didn’t.
