The rules of the speed rounds are different, where the letters just diffuse into place one at a time, and the contestants have to buzz in to try to solve. Unlike with normal rounds, the existence of a particular letter on the board does not mean that every blank must be a different letter.
I was tempted to write a Python script or something to generate a list of combinations with the remaining letters substituted in the first word, but I’m doing my best not to get nerd sniped for a puzzle that probably just has an error.
This is going to bother me now. What is the first word?!
Edit:
There’s no letter other than “n” that can go in “i_g” to make a real word (I tried every letter), so this a was either modified or they made a mistake.
Wait. Is the first word not an ing word? N is already on the board
None of the solvers I tried have a solution for the first word. This must have been edited.
Could it have been a mistake and they were supposed to reveal an N for ING but didn’t?
Guess assuming -ing in first word

I watched this episode and the first word is Putting
the sentence was putting on my pants
I think it was a puzzle, so they were only revealing 1 letter at a time?
Speed round
WOF also does speed rounds where individual letters are revealed at random.
