Yup, the bug is definitely fixed! It takes quite some time to be able to recover after losing a ton of letters, but I think that is fair especially since you (the player) loses a life. Although personally I find the first UI design to be nicer to the eyes, since the apple letter being on the top right and Jack on the bottom left helped balance it out for me, being that they're the biggest elements of the UI. Overall though I love the fixes!
(I got a higher score but I lost xD)
