Guess #1:  SERAI

• Nothing ... rarely happens

Guess #2:  POUTY

• "U" is out of place

Very rare to only have one letter out of the first 10. 
At this point we are down to six words.
Four words are in the form "bunch" or "hunch" or "lunch" or "munch"
Two words are in the form "gulch" or "mulch"
Mulch is a good guess.
Odds are something like:  1/6 of ending in 3;  3/6 of ending in 4;  1/6 of ending in 5

Guess #3:  MULCH

• "U" and "C" and "H" are all in place
• No "M" and no "L"

We are down to a 50/50 chance between "bunch" or "hunch"

Guess #4:  HUNCH
Oh dag.  Blew that one.

Guess #5:  BUNCH
