1 right in the wrong position.

Should we dump this test or reboot it?

SCUBA - 2 in, none perfect
ACUBS - 2 in, none perfect

(oh I love this kind of game)

ORSAY

DEOFI

JAGPT

MKNHL

TMIRA

SCSCS

ORSAY  1 in, 0 perfect
DEOFI  0 in
JAGPT  1 in, 1 perfect
MKNHL  1 in, 0 perfect
TMIRA  1 in, 0 perfect
SCSCS  0 in

So did GPT win, or are we still guessing?

To win, one must have "5 in, 5 perfect".  The best so far is either "2 in, 0 perfect" or "1 in , 1 perfect".

UUBUC - 1 in, 1 perfect

Note, in my notation of "X in, Y perfect", Y is always a subset of X.  So "1 in, 1 perfect" means that 4 out of five letters are completely wrong, while the remaining 1 is both a correct letter and in the correct spot.  I'm not sure if people were missunderstanding before.

I love this kind of game, and I was totally manipulating that last one to figure out that A was in fact a letter in your word. That means that the JAGPT canceled all but the A, which was perfect.  Thank you :p  I am assuming since neither UUBU-, and BBA-- triggered a 3 in, or 2 in your not going to be putting more than 1 in when more of the one letter is guessed.  That means I still have to figure out if it's U or B that is the other letter guessed in SCUBA.  Since I know S and C are not in thanks to the SCSCS which came up 0 in, I'll have to manipulate further to get the last four letters.  Though since MKNHL has 1 in, I do have a hint to the next one to aim for...

My brain is a churning see?

KABHL

KABHL - 3 in, 2 perfect

That's the closest guess yet!
