25-second pick · +85

Aberforth Deep Cut

9 letters · 1 word · ~2s to type · 110 accepted answers on the sheet

The household-name pick is bait. Look one ring further out. We would type Aberforth: Deep Cut, +85, 9 letters, about 2 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on Dumbledore, Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, or Ron Weasley — those are Plankton. The trench answer is Bathilda Bagshot (+100), but only take it if you can spell it cold.

Trench spelling, only if you already know it: Bathilda Bagshot +100

Skip Dumbledore · Harry Potter · Hermione Granger · Ron Weasley
