SCRUB → It’s odd to see the first letter come up yellow, then nothing else. Time for a good second guess guess
HEIST → Not bad, and half the vowels are gone. Let’s try two more
DAISY → Got another. Playing around with some words I didn’t think were words, I tried
AVISO → but I should have warned myself it might work. Then I saw
AMISS

Scoredle says it would have gone for the solution with both my third and fourth guesses, but gone to a different word with the fifth guess. Makes for an odd pattern, but I can see why it did that with the fifth guess, given the other two words were but one letter off from each other, so guessing the solution with the fifth guess might have ended up with a complete miss.

AMISS
i didn’t seriously think that AMISS could be the solution, but thought I’d try it out as a test word with another vowel and a common consonant.
And are we back in archaic territory, with BELIE and BEGET?

No R eliminated most of the possibilities, and only one of the remaining possibilities I could come up with had a C.
