edited by Sam Ezersky.

The written hints below were assembled automatically from the puzzle data rather than composed by an editor — accurate, just plainer than usual.

Recap

The board ran on H with A, B, C, E, L, T, and accepted 65 words. The pangrams were ATTACHABLE, CATCHABLE, TEACHABLE. This recap was assembled automatically from the puzzle data rather than written by an editor.

The seven letters

H ABCELT

Every answer had to use H. The board accepted 65 words in all.

Spelling Bee hints, rung by rung

Six rungs, counts before words. The recap above already named the pangram, so this ladder is here for anyone replaying the board fresh rather than as a spoiler shield.

  1. What kind of words the board rewarded

    No answer is named.

    Auto-generated hint: the board accepts 65 words from H plus A, B, C, E, L, T, running 4 to 10 letters. By opening letter: 19 start with H, 11 start with C, 11 start with T, 10 start with B, 7 start with L, 5 start with A, 2 start with E.
