I started playing this at Christmas when the kids were back from uni. They take it very seriously. My current streak is 13 with 1 two and 2 three's in there. The twist is I only go with rude words on the first two guesses, and any letters that hit have to be re-used, in place if they were right in the first guess.
My last 5 openers were *****, boner, barry, farts and *****.
EDIT: Wow, three of those beat the swear filter.
