<edit>

This started out being six letters (first word: server) but that seems a bit harder to manipulate. Guess it's best to stick with five letters, so here's the new beginning:

What happened to six letters?

CactusCounty

Didn't seem to work too well, as noted in the edit. It looked destined for a dead-end within a few words.

It wasn't the best idea on my part I guess so I tossed out a new line for five letters....I wonder how long it'll take to get back to 'trait' and then 'krait' again? (Now there's a challenge!)

I like a challenge, so how about we leave it at six and start with something easier than server ;0

Reset to mitten. Going to be hard to proceed since kitten and bitten are already used....

Ah, well. Nine minutes before the power goes off here. They're resetting the grid and the substation is supposed to be offline for the next seven hours.

Ciao!

There is no way we can do something to mitten!!!

Unless "sitten" could be counted?
