Wordle 458 2/6
AISLE
ALIKE
Woo-hoo! Can’t even remember my last two.
My first time using AISLE as a starter and it turned out to be lucky. I almost went with ALIVE, but something told me, no, try ALIKE first. I outsmarted Wordle for a change!
(And, I like symmetrical patterns. A good day.)

ALIKE
Like several others here, I was down to a choice between the solution and ALIVE. I won the literal coin toss this time - I was so undecided that I actually flipped a coin to make my decision.
Will happily take a 3 today.

IRATE
ANISE
ALIKE
Glad I didn’t see ALIVE. I’d have probably tried that before today’s answer.
I did it in one, but I inadvertently cheated. I opened this thread before doing the puzzle and the mouse-over revealed the answer. I did it anyway, just to be called a “genius”.

ALIVE
ALIKE
TRICE → OK, good on the vowels - but there’s a lot of consonants out there.
WHINE → Don’t know why I didn’t do SHINE. Well, next guess…
SLIME → Hit on the L! Too many possibilities still out there…
GLIDE → Strikeout. I’m late to notice, but I need to check some vowel possibilities. OLIVE? or…
ALIVE → Hit the A, not the V. Not many consonants left, and only one that fits…
ALIKE
19 greens out of 30 spaces. I wonder what the record is for most greens on a single wordle? If someone hit a 6-way trap on their first guess, then went the distance, that would be 25.

ALIBI
ALIKE
“ALIKE” and “ALIVE” seemed equally likely to me, so I went alphabetical. Sometimes works; sometimes doesn’t.

Nice! Getting it in 3 is like getting it in 2 these days. 
I’ve only had four 3’s the entire month.

CLAPS
PACER
RECAP
I should have guessed recap second; it’s pacer backwards and a much more obvious word. Still, I haven’t had many 3s lately so I will take it.

CHORE => RACER, RACED, PACER, RECAP? RACER or RECAP most likely.
RACER => Nope, it’s
RECAP
Yesterday I won the coin toss for a 3, today I didn’t. It all evens out.

CRANE -Looks like only two possible words
RACER - not this one
RECAP - it’s the other

My starting word, which I’ve never changed from my first game, really paid off today.
