Poople #67: STUD to POOP

October 20, 2025 · Medium · par 6 · updated October 1, 2026

One shortest path is STUD → SPUD → SPUR → SOUR → POUR → POOR → POOP. That is 6 moves, and the par stored next to STUD in the client is 6.

I walked STUD forward one letter at a time on the 2,398-word graph. Alphabetical neighbor order produced STUD → SPUD → SPUR → SOUR → POUR → POOR → POOP. I am publishing that route because the length matches the client's par.

Each change

  1. STUD → SPUD: letter 2 changes from T to P.
  2. SPUD → SPUR: letter 4 changes from D to R.
  3. SPUR → SOUR: letter 2 changes from P to O.
  4. SOUR → POUR: letter 1 changes from S to P.
  5. POUR → POOR: letter 3 changes from U to O.
  6. POOR → POOP: letter 4 changes from R to P.
