That is the part I haven't figured out yet. It got me thinking that an "extra challenge" puzzle would be to take those 159 candidate words above and sort them in an order such that most, if not all, words could be graphed in the puzzle. The two words I chose for the solution were bejeweled and diptych. The obvious solution would be to choose which words among these has both the most and greatest diversity of letters, and that would solve the puzzle.The candidate list was then whittled down to these 159 qualifying words: bed, beheld, bejewel, bejeweled, belch, belched, belt, belted, bet, betel, betide, betided, bewitch, bewitched, bey, bye, byte, chew, chewed, chi, chic, chichi, chicle, chid, chide, chided, chip, chit, cite, cited, city, clew, clewed, cycle, cycled, deb, debt, deity, delete, deleted, dew, did, die, died, diet, dieted, dietetic, dip, diptych, ditch, ditched, dwelt, dye, dyed, edict, edit, edited, etch, etched, ethic, ewe, eye, eyed, eyelet, held, help, hew, hewed, hey, hid, hide, hided, hie, hied, hip, hit, hitch, hitched, icicle, icy, idle, idled, idly, idyl, itch, itched, jet, jew, jewel, jeweled, led, lei, let, lewd, lewdly, lye, phew, phi, pic, pie, pied, piety, pit, pitch, pitched, pith, pitied, pity, plebe, pled, ply, the, thew, they, tic, tide, tided, tidied, tidy, tie, tied, tip, tipi, tit, tithe, tithed, title, titled, twit, twitch, twitched, web, wed, welch, welched, weld, welded, welt, welted, wet, wetly, wide, widely, wield, wielded, wit, witch, witched, wite, with, withe, withed, yelp, yet, yeti, yew, yield, yielded, yip.
