Board snapshot

What stands out on today’s board

Wend No. 100 is played on a seven-row, seven-column board. Of its 49 positions, 34 are open and 15 are blocked. The open-cell counts by row are 7, 5, 3, 2, 4, 6, and 7, so the board begins and ends with complete rows while the middle narrows sharply.

The columns are more balanced: their open-cell totals are 4, 7, 4, 4, 7, 4, and 4. Eleven open cells have at most two open orthogonal neighbors on the raw board. That figure describes only how many open cells touch each other above, below, left, or right; it does not say anything about completed routes.

You need four paths with lengths 7, 8, 9, and 10. Those lengths total 34, matching the number of open cells. Repeated letters are useful checkpoints: E occurs five times; L and T occur four times each; A and S occur three times each; and C, F, and U each occur twice. Check those counts when a promising spelling seems to consume the wrong copy of a letter.

Spoiler-light guidance

How to work through Wend No. 100

Begin by writing four blank slots in ascending length: seven, eight, nine, and ten letters. Their starting letters, in the same order, are P, F, A, and A. That separates the two A entries by length and gives you a concrete test for any candidate you form from adjacent open cells.

Use the board’s silhouette before committing to a spelling. Rows one and seven are fully open, columns two and five are also fully open, and the fourth row contains only two open cells. Trace candidates orthogonally, check every step against the required length, and avoid assuming that a visually straight run must belong to a particular slot.

For one more nudge, focus on the ten-letter slot: it starts on the left edge and changes direction five times. If you would rather see the full LinkedIn Wend answer, open the walkthrough. It preserves the required word order and gives every cell in sequence, so you can compare only the entry that is holding you up.

Full spoilers

Complete answer walkthrough

The complete LinkedIn Wend answer has four entries. Each sequence below follows orthogonally adjacent open cells, shows every required coordinate, and records the turns that distinguish the route from nearby letter choices.

Open answer 1 route analysis

First answer: PERFECT

Trace PERFECT across the first row: 1 at row 1, column 1; 2 at row 1, column 2; 3 at row 1, column 3; 4 at row 1, column 4; 5 at row 1, column 5; 6 at row 1, column 6; 7 at row 1, column 7.

The letters read P → E → R → F → E → C → T. Every move goes right, so this seven-cell route has no turns and consists of one straight segment. It spans all seven columns in a single row, visits seven edge cells, and includes both corner cells at its endpoints. After these seven cells are assigned, 27 open cells remain for the other three entries.

This is the only route here that never changes direction. Its starting cell has two open orthogonal neighbors on the raw board, while its ending cell has one. Once you commit to the opening P, the six consecutive rightward moves provide a clean length check: stopping before the final T would leave the entry short.

Open answer 2 route analysis

Second answer: FLAWLESS

Follow FLAWLESS through these cells: 1 at row 6, column 4; 2 at row 7, column 4; 3 at row 7, column 5; 4 at row 7, column 6; 5 at row 7, column 7; 6 at row 6, column 7; 7 at row 5, column 7; 8 at row 5, column 6.

Read F → L → A → W → L → E → S → S. Move down once, right three times, up twice, and left once. That produces three turns and four straight segments across a three-row by four-column span. Six of its cells lie on an edge, including one corner visit. With this eight-cell route added after the first entry, 15 cells are assigned and 19 remain.

Watch the direction changes rather than trying to extend the long rightward section indefinitely. The route turns after W, climbs through L, E, and the first S, then takes its final left step to the second S. Both endpoints have three open orthogonal neighbors on the raw board, so the spelling and eight-cell count are stronger checks than endpoint shape alone.

Open answer 3 route analysis

Third answer: AUTHENTIC

Trace AUTHENTIC in this order: 1 at row 6, column 6; 2 at row 6, column 5; 3 at row 5, column 5; 4 at row 4, column 5; 5 at row 3, column 5; 6 at row 2, column 5; 7 at row 2, column 4; 8 at row 2, column 3; 9 at row 2, column 2.

The sequence is A → U → T → H → E → N → T → I → C. Go left once, climb four cells, and then move left three more times. The route therefore has two turns and three straight segments, spanning five rows and five columns without visiting an edge or corner. Once these nine cells join the first two routes, 24 open cells are assigned and ten remain.

The useful signature is its long upward section between two leftward sections. Both the starting and ending cells have four open orthogonal neighbors on the raw board, so neither endpoint forces a single continuation. Count the four upward moves carefully, then confirm that the closing T, I, and C occupy three consecutive leftward steps and bring the route to nine cells.

Open answer 4 route analysis

Fourth answer: ABSOLUTELY

Complete ABSOLUTELY along this sequence: 1 at row 2, column 1; 2 at row 3, column 1; 3 at row 3, column 2; 4 at row 4, column 2; 5 at row 5, column 2; 6 at row 6, column 2; 7 at row 6, column 3; 8 at row 7, column 3; 9 at row 7, column 2; 10 at row 7, column 1.

The letters are A → B → S → O → L → U → T → E → L → Y. Travel down, right, down three times, right, down, and left twice. Those moves create five turns and six straight segments across six rows and three columns. The route visits five edge cells and one corner. Adding these final ten cells brings the assigned total to all 34 open cells, leaving none unused.

This path has more direction changes than any of the other three routes. Use the O, L, and U run to hold the long downward section, then expect two separate right turns before the final descent and two leftward moves. Its starting cell has three open orthogonal neighbors on the raw board, but the ending cell has only one, which gives the finish a distinct boundary check.

Verification note

How this edition was checked

The September 16, 2026 record was checked for Wend No. 100, including the seven-by-seven layout, blocked and open cells, answer order, word lengths, and every coordinate in the four routes. The route sequences also account for all 34 open cells.

This edition was compared across third-party pages, but those pages may share an upstream source, so the comparison does not establish independent sourcing. These facts were not obtained directly from LinkedIn. Wendtoday is unofficial and is not affiliated with LinkedIn.
