Poople #210: REAL to POOP

March 12, 2026 · Medium · par 6 · updated October 1, 2026

One shortest path is REAL → DEAL → DELL → DOLL → POLL → POOL → POOP. That is 6 moves, and the par stored next to REAL in the client is 6.

I walked REAL forward one letter at a time on the 2,398-word graph. Alphabetical neighbor order produced REAL → DEAL → DELL → DOLL → POLL → POOL → POOP. I am publishing that route because the length matches the client's par.

Each change

  1. REAL → DEAL: letter 1 changes from R to D.
  2. DEAL → DELL: letter 3 changes from A to L.
  3. DELL → DOLL: letter 2 changes from E to O.
  4. DOLL → POLL: letter 1 changes from D to P.
  5. POLL → POOL: letter 3 changes from L to O.
  6. POOL → POOP: letter 4 changes from L to P.
