Took a chance on the V over N…didn’t pay off. I didn’t see Melee…all I saw was Belle and was sure that had to be it. So an 8 it is for today. It must be triple letter day today. (good job in nailing Wordle in 4 guesses!)
STORE
CHAIN
DUMPY
APPEL LAPEL (5) STRIP (6) DRAFT (7) POKER (8)
Had a bit of a tough time nailing that first word. By guess #4 I wanted to get an L in there, and I was thinking Apple, but I typed it in wrong - lol…I didn’t think about the E not being last, but maybe subconsciously I knew it wasn’t. I looked up Appel afterwards and I guess it’s a Fencing term. The rest of the words fell into place, and I was glad I got Poker right (over Power).
I just played Octordle “Rescue” - they come up with the start word and the next 3 guesses, and then you just have 9 guesses to get 8 words, which of course means you can only miss once. It says “you may lose, and lose often”, but I thought, we’ll see about that! Not that I’m so confident in my abilities - lol, but challenge accepted. And I just missed one word, so I won!
Nice work! I haven’t tried that one or the octordle sequence yet, but I need to. Having to work off of a predetermined start is a very interesting twist!
Angel was a good choice…I had 4 words for that one, and it told me what it was, but also for the last word I saw Onion as a possibility (along with Widow), so getting the N was key.
Yeah, Guava was hard to see. I love Guava juice…I don’t buy it often, but it’s making me crave some now.
Scrap at least told me what the next word was…got out of that five-word trap! Quill came to me first, and you’d think I’d then see Build and Guild, but I didn’t. I think it’s safe to say that the B can no longer be trusted.
