TWISTTWEAKMEANTCLEAR

Today I decided to go with three start words again, but to tweak things use the results of the first two to influence the third. As I had three letter Es in the wrong position, I decided to go with a double-E word (WHEEL) for my third guess, which turned two of them green and set me on my way to glory.

Even with this headstart I still needed a little bit of luck to finish without errors, opting for CLEAR instead of CREAM, which would also have fit.
