But this is outrageous 4 letters right the first try, 4 letters in right place the second try, and then, try try, try, again!

The streak is done at 57. Got 4 letters on the first try, but none in place. Kind of like Pellice.
Too many possibilities after that and came down to 2 guesses I had for the last try and just picked the wrong one.

Line 3 and Line 4 are anagrams; I could have chosen either. What made me choose the wrong one?

I was certainly nervous about getting "trapped in the lane," but came out okay.

Wow!! I even turned off hard mode to try to get rid of possibilities. So my second loss. The Corridor gets me again.

Looking at the color pattern, in Lines 2 and 3, did you re-use a letter that had already been eliminated?

Saved by the bell.

In retrospect, my second try was a dumb one. Hard mode does not stop you from leaving a yellow letter in the same place and clearly it should be moved on the next try.
