Re: Quick Diachronics Challenge
I'm thinking about *aɹ̠˔tə˥, but this would make three guesses in a row, so take it or leave it.

Re: Quick Diachronics Challenge
Since it's been over a week since the last guess was made, and it's basically becoming guesswork, I'm officially ending this round, with Visions as the winner!
The actual protoform was aθːtə˥.

Re: Quick Diachronics Challenge
*utéqijo
1 shifts stress to the initial syllable and lengthens it
4/5/6 retain conservative second syllable stress and collapse the third syllable because of it and then palatise the *q
3 also palatises the q and centralises final vowels
1/2 might form a subgroup based on *j collapse

Conclusion for all of you: It looks convoluted, but it's much simpler. Peel them back in layers, as there are areal changes.

Spoiler:
2. stress kept on last syllable but /i/ is dropped and the original /k/ becomes /q/, uvularizing(?)
3. i'm gonna be honest, i have no idea how there's a ʧ here and in none of the others. Maybe the sibilant moved towards the end for 4, 5, and 6?
4. the mouth kinda drops a little bit, getting rid of the /ʃ/ but keeping the /i/ forming the basis of /j/, chance of sibilant movement towards the end of the word
5. i'm thinking there might have been an in between word for 5 and 6 so the schwa can become /u/ or it's adjacents, then /o/,
6. consonant cluster implies vowel dropping, tongue moves upwards for /j/ becoming fricative /ʝ/, then it moves forward into /ç/, basically the opposite of 4
Just a kind of wild guess though. I can tell there are some remnants of a sibilant in the latter half though.

A couple things you did were one step forward, and most of the other things you did were three steps back.
Your lemmas for 6 and 4 are wrong. As for 3, just think about it and it will be obvious.
Pay attention the conclusion I wrote above.

Your guess is much better, but no, you still don't get 3.
I told everyone 4, 5, and 6 are a group. I did not tell you how basal/coronal they are.
Conclusion: The last syllable is messed up pretty much the same way by everyone.
Ranking:
Theif and Crey (on second examination, you're about equal)
Arayaz (I want to add you to Jim and Flavia's little hoedown, but you are a bit better)
Jim and Flavia tie.
Kes (I'd put you much higher, but for the extra)
