not a native speaker, i tried all lifelines and have still no idea what the answer is but i noticed reloading the page makes the 50/50 keyboard different each time.

so i reloaded several times to remove each letter that wasn't there every time... well it looks like there is only the M left and yet the the answer is not MMA

Very observant! I know that that is possible and left it in, at least for now.

Sorry about that though. For now, if you open the browser dev tools (F12 on Windows or opt-command-J on mac, in chrome anyway), go to the network tab, and refresh and look at the network request to the /puzzle endpoint on load, you'll see the solution.

'A' can be reused!
