Nice teaser. They don't have to be difficult to be enjoyable.
Nice one. Took me a little more time than what it should have!
Good job on your teaser. I had to peek.

I used the alphabet to find the third letter before ure and orse and was lucky to find it on the 4th try..D! Then it filled in for me. Fun teaser
I loved it! I thought it was easy and fun.
Very good. I had to fight for that one.
it was ok... pretty fun
excellent job on this one... i really enjoyed it... not too simple, yet not unsovable
The funny part was ENDLESS endure endorse ENDING. (UPPERCASE)
i finally got it
That was a very good teaser, but sure time consuming. I had to run the alphabet a couple of times, but enjoyed it.
Took me awhile, but in the END I got it.
Easy. Got it in less than 30 seconds.
Fun and enjoyable teaser; took awhile but figured it out.
Nice & easy teaser, thanks!
I struggled with this. I was tempted to give up several times, but walked away and stewed on it. The answer finally popped into my head. This was a terrific fun challenge for me.
FUN!
Fun, easy and entertaining teaser; I got it very quickly this time - it took a lot longer three years ago.
That was excellent. I can't believe how hard it was, given it was just 3 letters to come up with!
