On this one. Looking for new second words --that haven't been answers-+to work with STEAL. I used 'niece' because it would confirm/eliminate both combinations of 'ie' and 'ee', and had benefit of two extra common consonants.

I was starting to blame the new starter word, but it's probably some old habits and thinking I made from using TRIAL for a couple of years.

I had so many 2nd and 3rd guesses on tap I guess I'm going to have to start over.

as single letters after the first guess. I've been using trial for a very long time, too! It worked really well.
