I didn't cheat. I simply removed S I X L E T T E R S :) I must admit, it took me a minute before I saw it.

My husband gave me this riddle at dinner last night. It popped right out at me after he said six letters for the third time. Good job!

Placemaker tries to ignore phrases composed of common words like "Main" and "Point" where there is no location context. "Main Point" by itself should not trigger a match, but "Main Point, Newfoundland" should trigger a match. In some cases, our confidence may be too high and Placemaker will trigger a match when it shouldn't. Of the phrases you provided, only "Lofty Heights" triggered a match for me.
