larkim Mar 2024 12:35pm, 25 Mar 2024 23,576 posts	Quote Pin larkim When drawing out words which don't turn blue, I find myself hitting the "hint" button by mistake a few times with my brain telling me it is an "enter" button, whereas I know what I should be doing is pressing the final letter again to confirm it. Annoying, means my results looks more "hinty" than it really is.
