> **Summary**
>
> Another tough one for me. After my 3rd guess, I had to do a bit of sleuthing to narrow it all down. Thankfully the #1 word (Abash, Awash, or Quash) was solved with my incorrect guess (Lotus) for the #2 word, but then I was stuck with two choices for each of the remaining 3 words (Moult/Poult, Stall/Stalk, Edict/Evict), and looking at a potential to fail if I chose wrong on more than one of them. MIKED to the rescue! _Phew_. 🙂

@chiliwillybing Impressive 3456 considering the three 50/50 chances you guessed correctly!

I probably shouldn’t have started with the s\_ i \_e trap. Thought I could narrow it down fairly quick, but ended up jumping over to grind, then back to smite in the end.

Pure luck, as you can see I’m back to my typical unlucky guesses today 😆

Bento served as a sleuth word to check Besot, Onset, and Pesto, but realizing now I didn’t need to do that. Wouldn’t have mattered though, as I don’t think I’d have played Pesto first, so same result. I am having deja vu with guessing Diver-Wider-Rider, though I think it was a long while back.

Never heard of reast before, but it didn’t turn red and allowed me to check all the letters I wanted.

Also, I remember aping being used before. It was hard enough to guess as to be memorable.

Yeah, that’s annoying as shit. So much so I’m going to look if there’s a feedback option anywhere where I can voice a complaint.

I guess having an older phone (Pixel 4a from 2019) does have its perks in that I get a fair few seconds to read my answers before those obnoxious ads cover them.

I didn’t get any ads because I use an ad blocker, but for me the score box is much bigger and pops up right over the puzzle the second I finish. 😠

Well, it’s touting other puzzles to play. Kind of a gray area, but I think of them as ads.

Does your ad blocker make it just a bunch of empty space blocking the puzzle?

No, I got the “more games” as well. Very annoying!
