I thought of FUNKY first for guess three but didn’t think it was as good a guess. I could have had a four. But at least no yellow.

Did myself out of a 3 here. There were a limited number of possibilities for the 5th letter, and I went through all the combinations I could think of for the first three letters before my third guess came to mind. And if I’d done the sort of thought process for the double N that I’d done for everything else I could think of, I’d have found the solution and gone with that first. But I just jumped on ‘ninny’ when I saw it because nothing else had turned up.

With all other vowels off the table, _UNNY was a pretty good bet. Could have been SUNNY, FUNNY, or BUNNY, so I guess I was neither lucky nor unlucky.
At least others also had trouble with this one.
Wordle 912 5/6
SLATE - ah, crap
POUCH - not much progress
FUNKY
FUNDY - Wordlebot didn’t like this one
FUNNY - for some reason a double letter didn’t occur to me until now
BACON → OK, not much there… try two vowels and two other comcons
NITES → Well. U & Y still out as vowels, I should try to check them both. Gotta place the N, I think it’s time for the Scoredle trick of doubling up on the letter. NNUY invokes BUNNY but the B is goine, so
FUNNY
Yep, knocking out that B in the first guess was key. I must say, after perusing Scoredle’s list of words remaining, that KNURL would have thrown me for a lloop.
I forgot to post yesterday. It was a 3 with my guesses being:
IRATE
CLOAK
BACON
I picked BACON out of 7 other possibles, so a lot of luck involved in this one.
Then there was today.

After my second try, I pretty immediately figured out the double N, had it down to BUNNY and FUNNY. Lost the coin toss. WordleBot advised that there were actually 3 words to choose from, as it considers PUNNY a legitimate choice, too. Stupid bot.

And once again I don’t understand WordleBot’s ratings. The NYT average score was 3.9, mine was 3, but the NYT average skill score is 88 and mine is 89?
