After 2, ‘would’ was the only word coming to mind, but I figured there were too many other possibilities to just go with it. (And there were ~15 legit possibilities, per Scoredle.) But I did go with ‘dumpy’ rather than ‘gimpy’ on 3 in order to test for it, which worked out well.

SPENT → A breeze in the air. Plenty of choices for next word. I’ll try A & I as vowels, so with comcons I get
LAIRD → Good luck with the D! With O & U left as vowels, I should try them together - CLOUD? or perhaps
COULD → Argggh, so close.
WOULD
MOULD would have lipped me out for a bogey. So a par, despite my not remembering the third guess had already been used, is a good outcome.
For me, this was a super-fast game. The mug was full and the coffee still hot when I solved it. Lucky second word, as is often the case.

WordleBot said the only other possible word was MOULD, which I had also found but considered an unlikely contender. Good to know it’s on Wordle’s usable list.

This took forever. Last night I only managed to find lowly, which has already been an answer. This morning I saw nothing. At lunch I saw logic, but that’s also already been an answer. Finally now I saw could, and again that’s already been an answer, but that immediately led me to would. Finally!
As for mould: It’s a valid guess but it was not on the original answers list. Doesn’t mean the new editor hasn’t added it, but since it appears to be an exclusively British spelling, I tend to doubt it was added to the answer list. There is, of course, the word moulding in carpentry, but as far as I can tell that’s the only form of that word, always with the ing ending.

I resisted my first instinct which was QUOIT and chose TOPIC over TOXIC. So only 99.99997% luck.
Shows how discombobulated I was from yesterday’s Wordle. That spoiler word couldn’t be the answer because I had confirmed there was an O.
