I decided to go with Plan B after my second guess because I saw that there were more than a couple possible answers. I figured that some of them might have been the answer in the past but I didn’t want to check because that would feel a bit like cheating.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 0.2.3. This is the 43rd consecutive month that I have started at least one game with 0.2.3.

I played my third and fourth guesses in the order that they occurred to me but I saw them as the only two possible answers after my second guess.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 1.0.4. This is the 22nd consecutive month that I have started at least one game with 1.0.4. I have started at least one game with 1.0.4 in 42 of the past 43 months.

That was as easy as 1-2-3 and I finished it in 4 guesses.

I can’t say for certain but I think that this might be the first time that I have started back to back games with 0.1.4, finished them in 4 guesses, and both games have lasted the exact same amount of time.

That’s it for August. My current winning streak has so far lasted exactly four months. My average score for August was 3.93. That's considerably better than my average for July but then my average for July was my highest ever. Nothing really jumps out at me about the stars for this month but here they are.

I did something with my second guess that I don’t usually do after starting with 0.2.3. It paid off faster that I thought it would.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 0.2.3 and finished it in 3 guesses. I have started at least one game with 0.2.3 and finished it in 3 guesses in 34 of the past 42 months.

This is the third time during my current winning streak and twelfth time overall that I have started a 5G game with 0.2.3 and finished it in 3 guesses. I have had more 5G games that I started with 0.2.3 and finished in 3 guesses during my current winning streak than I have in any prior winning streak.

Time 1:55

I think that there were probably plenty of other possible answers after my third guess. I didn’t have any reason to think that TOWER was the answer. It just seemed like a good guess based on the information I had at that point.

This is the 13th time that I have started a game with 0.0.5 and finished it in 4 guesses during my current winning streak. This count is just second behind the 26 times that I started a game with 0.0.5 and finished it in 4 guesses during my 10th streak (443 games).
