That's why you might consider playing in hard mode.  Once you "get" a letter, you have to use it, eliminating the option of listing 2 words to "cover" the vowels, get another letter or two, and figure it out. You have to set hard before starting...but it carries over once set.
 
ok, done.

Did the same thing as SFW (with one additional try on my part), only with a completely different "likely option" - oh, and I did start with "adieu" but I can see that as being problematic if it ends up being a word with two duplicate vowels.

I would have done the same thing...but the only thing I knew was your coin-flip.  Shocked when the second row turned green.
