SLATE - Bust
SPOIL - Bigger bust
BENCH - Going nowhere, so take a wild stab. . .
QUEEN
Ouch!
Wordle 887 4/6* US Thanksgiving Day 2023
PIXEL → Well, that’s something. With two vowels out, I can concentrate on consonants with my next guess
RATES → Whiff. Try an N, and at least one other vowel - maybe tack on a Y? That would be
MONEY → So now, is a second E more likely than a U? I’d like to test both… if we could use German proper names, EUGEN would be good… but looking at that I should try
QUEEN
Scoredle differed with every guess I made, but I finished faster than it did (4 vs. 5). Take that, inanimate algorithm!

Lucky guess. Happy Thanksgiving, my fellow Americans!
Another 3, only this one was far more strategic than yesterday’s.

QUEEN
After my first try, there were 216 potentials. After my second try, only 3. Besides QUEEN, there was ENEMY or SHEEN. QUEEN just happened to be the first one I saw that made sense.
Happy Thanksgiving to you, too, @Rebo!

QUEEN → Clean miss. Time for a favorite second guess
ROAST → And that worked well, though I have lots of shuffling around to do. I tried to work an I in here but had no luck (though, per Scoredle, I didn’t see VITRO) so I went with
BROTH → More shuffling. For a while my innter Hobbit fan was only seeing THROR here, but that led pretty quickly to
THROW
THROB had been eliminated by my third guess, fortunately.

Took me forever to see tumor. Didn’t see anything at midnight so I slept on it. Didn’t see anything this morning so I came back to it mid-morning. Still didn’t see anything so I came back a final time at lunch and finally saw tumor. But alas…

@RTFirefly, I’m glad I didn’t see THROB, either. I’d have tried that before THROW if I had. But as is often the case, I was just testing letter placement and didn’t really expect THROW to be the answer.
