There’s no accounting for WordleBot. < shrug > It lives by its own inscrutable rules.
Surely wordlebot rates each guess based on how many possible answers remaining guesses it eliminates. Does it not?

Happy to be part of the cavalcade of 3’s. For me, at guess 3, HAUTE (as in ‘haute cuisine’) was the only other (unlikely, IMHO) possibility I saw, and besides that and the solution, the only words Scoredle found were two totally AYFKM words. So really it was down to just the one.

I saw matte before bathe, which would normally mean I guess matte first, 100%. But I really liked bathe a whole lot more, so I took a risk.

BATHE - pure, dumb luck. Wordlebot said there were 17 words I could have picked from at this point.

CURLY → Strikeout. Let’s try a standard second guess word
HOIST → Should have tried HASTE - better vowels. Let’s get A & E covered
THANE → And there they are. ?ATHE, LATHE is out, so

I was getting a little worried after two, but LATHE turned out to be a fine guess.

And everyone can see how completely I failed on this one. I somehow forgot the T in my second guess when trying to look for vowels . After that, I got to a point where I had absolutely no options left and then I saw the T. I assume I would have done better if I wasn’t an idiot but at least I didn’t fail completely.
