Poople #147: EVEN to POOP

January 8, 2026 · Hard · par 8 · updated October 1, 2026

One shortest path is EVEN → EVES → EYES → DYES → DOES → DOER → DOOR → POOR → POOP. That is 8 moves, and the par stored next to EVEN in the client is 8.

I walked EVEN forward one letter at a time on the 2,398-word graph. Alphabetical neighbor order produced EVEN → EVES → EYES → DYES → DOES → DOER → DOOR → POOR → POOP. I am publishing that route because the length matches the client's par.

Each change

  1. EVEN → EVES: letter 4 changes from N to S.
  2. EVES → EYES: letter 2 changes from V to Y.
  3. EYES → DYES: letter 1 changes from E to D.
  4. DYES → DOES: letter 2 changes from Y to O.
  5. DOES → DOER: letter 4 changes from S to R.
  6. DOER → DOOR: letter 3 changes from E to O.
  7. DOOR → POOR: letter 1 changes from D to P.
  8. POOR → POOP: letter 4 changes from R to P.
