I don't see where "Greece" forms before getting back to the first "G".

I just successfully entered "Connecticut", but there is only one "N" in the puzzle, so I don't think I understand the instructions.

Even if one counts the "N" twice, I can't get back to the last "T" before hitting the original "C".

"You may pick the same letter twice in a row!" - I've added this to the instructions, which probably need to be written in a much clearer way

so you can write grEEce and coNNecticut because you'll get "EE" and "NN" by using just 1 letter
