PLUCK
SLUNG

I actually thought of SLUNG before PLUCK, but thought the latter would be more likely. :person_facepalming:
Happy with a 4 though, as I still had BLUSH and SLUSH on the table, so a bit of luck came into play.

FARCE → Really expected something to hit here
HOIST → Just two vowels left (counting Y)…
SKULL → I’m sure Wordlebot would taunt me ferociously for that guess
SLUMP → That would have been a better third word. I think there’s only one word left
SLUNG

At least the third guess ended up eliminating one possibility for the fifth guess.

3586

Yeah, close one for me today, too.

Oh that evasive U…doesn’t show up that often, though I was feeling it might at some point soon, yet I didn’t go with my usual start word to include it today. Only saw two choices after my third word, and considered going with the more common L, but took a swing at swung.

3588

@psychobunny, we had the same last three words, so you’re not alone in what you did there. :wink:

The ONE time I didn’t check P at all. That’ll learn me.

_USHY (BCMPT) looks like a fun trap, though I’m not 100% that tushy is actually in the answer list.

I wish I’d thought of tipsy before bitsy. I would have used it first. I would have correctly guessed that bitsy is not an answer.
