LEGGY
I was kind of surprised to save par here. I’d figured there must be a terminal Y, and kept trying to find an -LY ending. When I couldn’t, I tried L at the beginning. I didn’t like LEGGY at all (still don’t), but it was all I could see.
Checking Scordle afterward, it was my only real choice after all; it was just a matter of convincing myself to use it.
NOT the finest showing for my 500th game in a streak out of 741 games consecutively played. But I’ll take it!

Really? LEGGY?
@Wheelz I’m right with you in not liking this word. It’s almost as bad as PINEY.
And of course it happens two days in a row.

LEGGY
Another one where I spent all day coming up with possible solutions after 2. This time I found a little over a dozen but a good amount were previous answers, leaving me with a little under 10 to narrow down. G and I were the most common letters, and guile would narrow it down to positively identify among the solutions.
But of course the result from guile was a surprise since leggy was not one of the answers I came up with. So I had to sit and stare at this one even after all the effort, making it even worse than yesterday.
Tomorrow’s better be something easy like stale or plate.

Well that was a lucky 2nd word 
I think Leggy was all I had to choose from, unless Ledgy would ever be an answer, which I doubted.

This one made me chuckle. When repel wasn’t the answer I was stumped for a second. Not having any idea what it could be, I just started typing in what I knew with X as a placeholder to see if something jumped out at me. Meaning I typed in EXPEL oh now I see it.
At least it was a nice normal one instead of an all-day word search odyssey.

Couldn’t they intersperse these hard words in with the easier words, rather than having three in a row? Sheesh.

EXCEL - A wildly lucky guess
EXPEL
Totally dumb luck to get this in four.
LEGGY → Not a bad start. Hey, I can use a great start word for my second guess!
SLATE → No help there. Really need to place some letters. Could put E first, middle or 4th, L middle-last. DWELL would KO two L places. If Wordle used Leetspeak, I could try ELEET, but it would be better to try something that puts the L somewhere new. I’ll try
EXPEL
The stream-of-consciousness commentary should make it apparent that there was serious luck involved. Scoredle says there were 90 words left, and a large percentage of them were non-bs, including a couple proto-traps.
