I got spoiled by accidentally clicking one of the early ones.I decided to to treat it like a par and solve it in four so I didn’t ruin my streak.

CHEAT
WROTE

TROPE

Kicking myself as I almost used the solution as guess 2, then had only 2 possibilities for 3 and still didn’t pick the word I had very nearly used above. Nuts.

TRACE
TRIPE
TROPE
After the first word i went through the letters that weren’t eliminated and came up with possible words. TRIPE/TROPE were the only words that had the same fourth letter. And there were more TRI than TRO words so I picked the TRI word,

2651

Yes it was directed at you. Oops that was my error.

2652

You might’ve had it in 3 if you skipped Munch

I wonder why it turned the Myellow?

Was your 3rd word Punch?

My second 2. I think the first was when ULNAR was followed by ULTRA, which practically gave it away. This one? Sheer luck.

Given my first two guesses, there weren’t that many possibilities for the right word.
