Loc: Tasmania I think hustled to whistled is two changes isn't it, a substitution and an addition? HUSTLED + W - I + U = WHISTLED
I suggest instead SHUTTLED.

Loc: Netherlands, the Hague Yes, I see that now .I unintentionally defied The Rules. Blame shame sorry. Skip whistle.
Uh, CoffeeBean, my dictionary only gives tousle with one s. ( to treat roughly) Is there another toussle and what does it mean?
So twosleepy, DUTCHESS inevitably! And any time now computer brake down can make this game DUTCHLESS.

Loc: Worcester, MA In my neighborhood there used to be a bunch of "TOUCHLESS Car Washes." [change D to O]
(And J&J made OUCHLESS Band-Aids...) [delete T]
afterthought: If we discipline ourseves to define the changes, we'll have less to cavil about regarding observing/flouting the Roolz...

Edit Reason: add afterthought !

Loc: Netherlands, the Hague Ouch!What a word! Can you also get us out this dead-end-street-of-a-word again, The inFallible?
Yes Wofahu, it's clear and also a good self-check to tell what was done.But how will the last one be undone?

Replace L with N and rearrange to get
TOUCHINESS
(or is that putting us farther into a hole?)

Loc: Netherlands, the Hague Guess not. At this point I realize it's a wordgame in a foreign language. I see my limit. I've really been putting effort to it. Over eight letters I loose
track.
