Faulty Clues for Hacking?

The last couple of times I played Fallout 3, I got some wonky messages while trying to hack into computers. I have gotten a couple of "clues/results" with 0 (zero) correct, yet all of the words had at least 1 "E" in them. If the word I chose had an "E" and I got a "Zero correct", how can another word with an "E" be correct? Yet I did finally guess right, with a word containing an "E."



I am running some mods, though nothing major, and certainly not modifying any computer hacking. Have others run into this? Or is this just my lucky game? :lol:

Isn't it positioning as well.



If the password is Fell.



Beds would show 1/4


Seed would show 1/4


Sell would be 3/4


But Earn would show 0/4 because the 'E' is in the wrong place.



That's what I always thought it was. If it turns out I'm wrong, it'd be pretty funny cos I've gone through three games thinking that hehe

If that is so, I have totally misjudged those puzzles! :lol:
