I can cover one WoFcon but not two, I flip a coin mentally and decide to try an R > H_E_ **A** R **T** β†’ Wasn’t the R.

Scoredle would have tried a different third guess, but in the event it would have left me with the same possibilities for the fourth guess. Kinda nice after yesterday’s trap-sweat. ---
