Re: "Is it just me or is todayโs Spellbinding the same as Marchโฆ"
The dictionary has under 50,000 words (took me years to soft through them, and still some errors).
There are around 7,000 pangram- eligible words, if I remember correctly. Times seven for possible centers .
But many result in very large, tedious games, or tiny impossible games with like 5 words. I filter for a range of 50 to 150, I think.
I keep a list of played games to avoid duplicates.

I personally haven't played a dupe game yet, not that I know of.

There haven't been dupe games. possibly same letters, but with a different anchor letter the solutions are different.
I check against old games to avoid duplicates

@lab6, if you don't specify time the odds are 100%

Is it just me or is todayโs Spellbinding the same as March 30thโs, just with a different central letter? What are the odds?! One in 26 choose 7 = 657,800 right?
