CADET → Whiff. A & E are out, so let’s try something with I & O and three of the four WoFcons.
LOINS → Tbat’s not bad. Not many places to put the U, so I’m guessing a single O in the middle. Gotta try the R, so ?RON?, thought about GRONK for a second but decided on
PRONG
Scoredle tried a different word with the same vowels as my second, but being slightly more obsessive about covering WoFcons paid off for me, as it doesn’t get the fourth letter until the very end. Scoredle reminds me, though, that the answer could have been WRONG, in which case I also would have been wrong, though I think it’s been an answer fairly recently..

I don’t usually, but I admit to checking the used words list today, because I really wanted it to be IRONY, even though that wouldn’t have been the best move. I saw that IRONY and WRONG were both off the table. Without checking the list I would definitely have scored a five. (WRONG → PRONG)

FORTE
I didn’t like the chances I felt forte would be in the answer list – pretty high but not guaranteed – but I absolutely loved it as a solution to the results of my first two words.

This one had me buffaloed for way too long. After my two-part opener, I knew “porte” had to be wrong because of how uncommon that word is, but I guessed it anyway to try and figure out where the R and T were. When “ORTE” turned out to be correct I thought to myself that there couldn’t possibly be any other word with those letters in that order, and I spent a good five minutes trying to rhyme words with “porte” until I realized “forte” and “porte” don’t rhyme.

Gah. Thought I had a three, then thought I had a four.
Scordle played all of the exact same words from my starting point, so there’s that, I guess.

PRONG → OK, not bad. Should I try two vowels, for a total of three? Or add two WoFcons? I’ll go with the latter and see if I hit on the vowel.
ROLES → Placed the O, added an E, but don’t have an -ER ending. In fact, that E pretty much has to go last. And no ?OO?E, so I think I’m done with vowels. Can’t think of a ?O?RE word that fits, but I’m seeing one from ?OR?E that’s out of my normal pattern, but I just have to try
FORCE → Ah, shoujld have thought about WoFcons some more
FORTE
CORER is Scoredle’s second guess, and it ends up being better than mine, placing both known letters and discovering a third. But, we both end up with the same par from that same start. Fun day.
