Knowing the final word and continuing to guess, I really don't understand the scoring. Big Spoilers for today.

The word is historian.

History is 722/1000
Legend is 756/1000
Author is 968/1000

So what could possibly be 999/1000?

I'm guessing words straight from a thesaurus for Historian and not getting within 30.
