SEVEN → At least I don’t have to chase a double E. Try an A and three WoFcons… or, seeing nothing that works for that, an A, a Y, and two WoFcons
TEARY → Thought about repeating the T or trying a U and saw nothing, then I started looking at less common consonants.
TEACH

Scoredle, oddly, finishes in 6! It falls into a trap and gets rather unlucky with its guesses. I’m just happy to get on the better side of par again.

TEACH → That’s a good start. I may be out of the vowel guessing business today. To guess two WoFcons, nove those letters over, prepend an S and tack on L to get
STEAL → a trap. I see three more, so I think I’m safe.
STEAD → Not that.
STEAK → Not that either - didn’t we have this recently? Or was that STAKE? I’m slipping. Oh, well, one more
