Late 80s Hokie

Followed by Stoic and then Pudgy. Gets all the vowels and almost all the most common letters out with no repeats in your first 15. If the first and 2nd word get me a fair amount of hits, I'll see about solving it on #3. My goal isn't to get it in the least moves possible. It's to never fail. And I almost never fail on it. Over 250 games at this point, with only 3 losses.
