Nice 2! Unfortunately it always seems to go that way. 🙁

> Seems Quordle has been kicking it up a notch or two in difficulty lately. Every word was a trap (right after my two start words), albeit two of them were small traps. I almost went with Brick after my 2nd start word, but I wanted to check the P and Y, as those letters were in my list of words, and that helped solve Showy, and eliminated three words for the #4 word. To avoid the huge \_IGHT trap, I went with a sleuth word (Fanum…no idea what it means). That word also eliminated Armor, so I was able to solve the next two no problem, _thankfully_.

Unless someone already had, [that would be me](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/quordle-for-people-who-find-wordle-to-be-too-easy/980931/150), shortly after I started with my super duper hard mode rules.
