Wow, I'm on form. Two ribbons in one day!

Anyway, this contest seems to be easier than I thought it might be, so I'm making a couple of changes to the rules:

1) Maximum number of guesses is now 30, instead of 50
2) Prizes start at 90 posts, and decrease by 3 for each letter guess.
3) Maximum number of guesses to win the ribbon is now 8, instead of 15.

Here's the next puzzle:
