Poople #179: WEPT to POOP

February 9, 2026 · Medium · par 6 · updated October 1, 2026

One shortest path is WEPT → LEPT → LEFT → LOFT → LOOT → LOOP → POOP. That is 6 moves, and the par stored next to WEPT in the client is 6.

I walked WEPT forward one letter at a time on the 2,398-word graph. Alphabetical neighbor order produced WEPT → LEPT → LEFT → LOFT → LOOT → LOOP → POOP. I am publishing that route because the length matches the client's par.

Each change

  1. WEPT → LEPT: letter 1 changes from W to L.
  2. LEPT → LEFT: letter 3 changes from P to F.
  3. LEFT → LOFT: letter 2 changes from E to O.
  4. LOFT → LOOT: letter 3 changes from F to O.
  5. LOOT → LOOP: letter 4 changes from T to P.
  6. LOOP → POOP: letter 1 changes from L to P.
