Combo Clue

A two-word phrase meaning 50/50

📖 How I Solved It

I tackled puzzle #607 on a lazy Sunday afternoon, and let me tell you, it was a wild ride! The combo clue about a phrase meaning 50/50 threw me for a loop at first. I kept thinking of all sorts of phrases but couldn't quite land on 'EVENODDS.' I made a couple of wrong guesses too, like 'BALANCEACT,' which really didn't fit. The word ladder was a bit tricky too—especially when I got to 'EYES.' I was stuck trying to remember what bats actually see, and I initially thought it had to be something more complex. But once I started connecting the dots, everything clicked, and I felt a rush of satisfaction when I finally solved it. It was like completing a mini-escape room in my brain!
