TONIC
THROW
I thought I got super lucky, but it turns out there wasn’t much to choose from. Just THROW, THROE (not likely), or TEMPO, which I didn’t see. A good three, I think.

A 4 is pretty good when you only have one letter from your first two words. I’ll take it. 
Agree. A good 4!
Me, I got 6.

FLAME
BRICK — and then I started chasing possible solutions when instead I should have kept eliminating letters
SHINE
POISE — dumb dumb dumb! The S! DUMB!
QUITE — fortunately there’s only one possibility left
GUIDE
Man, I was lucky to survive this one. If I kept eliminating letters instead of chasing possible solutions I likely would have got it in 4. I likely would have gone with these:
FLAME
BRICK
SNOUT — I likely would have gone with SNOUT because all 5 letters are new and are frequent-use
GUIDE
DAMN. Fortunately, I survived. Hey, hey, I will survive.

I didn’t expect guide to be the word, but I wanted to eliminate the remaining
vowels i and u.

Wordle 889 6/6* 11/25/2023
THROW → Whiff. Really need some vowel guesses here, but I can try two of them along with three more comcons, so
LINES → Two hits! Maybe I’m out of vowels… but I really need to get some consonant hits here too
MEDIC → There’s one. If I move those over and try another vowel, maybe I can chip in for par
*EDIFY → Nope. Words are getting sparser. E placed by process of elimination. D goes before it. I’m really seeing
ABIDE → but that wasn’t it! Oh, boy. QUIDE - just no. U?IDE goes nowhere with what’s left. Aha, the G
GUIDE
This was kind of fun, except for that moment of panic when the first two letters came up grey on my fifth guess.
Another fizzle.

GUIDE
I correctly surmised that I was in the middle and E at the end, and after looking for a long time, SPIKE was all I could see that fit. So I was quite surprised when that wasn’t it. Took me another eternity to see GUIDE, which was a real “duh” moment. I had a blind spot for the U.
Not mad at a four today, but I still can’t help thinking I should have done better.
Well, this is what I get for getting all cocky about my 3s. Here’s a 4 to take the wind out of my sails a bit.
