Tips and Tricks

Here are some tips and tricks for the game. Anyone can contribute to this by adding useful suggestions. Hope this helps! (WIP)

General

 * Start large, then go smaller. Later in the game, the time will go faster, so should you get "ER", if you have plenty of time, type words like "countercountermeasures" or "interchangeably", but if time is limited, type words like "heron" or "terrain".
 * Use this and this to know long words and words that (potentially) people haven't used yet.

Prompt solves

 * Remember word roots (Many people struggle unnecessarily with "ED", but they tend to forget past tense verbs, like "cooked" and "panicked". Also, if you are struggling for words with the same letter combination, taking "LI" for example, use plurals, different tenses, and similar sounding words; "LI" could be "like", "likes, "liked", "liking", "line" and AN could be "annotate", "annotates", "annotated", "annotation", "ant", and………… "and".
 * Hard prompts. Try to remember the harder letter combinations, e.g. "RW" as in "underwater", "KA" as in "blockages", and "EB" as in "hereby" are some examples. A WIP list of prompts and solves can be found here.
 * Three letter prompts. Many people struggle unnecessarily when it comes to prompts like "ATI" as they are looking for words which begin with "ATI". However, they always forget that "ATI" can end with an "ing" or "tion", so the prompt can just be "_ATING" or because you know that "ATI" can end with "ing". Thus, you can already come up with one (or more) suitable words (rating, hating, mating, etc.). Some of the hardest three letter prompts are these: "ENA", "HIR", "UMI". For "ENA", some suitable words are "menace", "menaces", and "menacing". For "HIR", some suitable words are "bloodthirstinesses", "thirstinesses", "thirst", "shirt", etc. For "UMI", some suitable words are "aluminum", "aluminums", "consuming", "humiliate". A WIP list of 3-letter prompts and suitable words can be found here.
