> **Wordle 1,570 6/6\* 10/6/2025** > > ⬜⬜🟨⬜🟩 > ⬜🟨⬜⬜🟩 > 🟩⬜⬜⬜🟩 > 🟩🟨⬜⬜🟩 > 🟩⬜🟩🟩🟩 > 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 > > PL_A_N **E** β†’ That’s a pretty good start. I played around with S, R and T but couldn’t find a word that used all three, so I tried > C_A_RT **E** β†’ And got nothing. But, with a likely A???E, I figured I needed to try another vowel, so I went with > **A** BOV **E** β†’ Which at least placed the A for certain. But it’s getting late, and I need more letters, so I went with I for the vowel and also got to try the S with > **A** _S_ID **E** β†’ So there is an S, and probably a U, for which I immediately saw > **A** B **USE** β†’ but that was wrong, since I had already tried the B (in that same position, too!) so I really screwed up my shot at a bogey > **AMUSE** > > Poor endgame play means I take another six. Scoredle, on the other hand, checks out a different set of two WoFcons with its second guess, then sinks a 50-50 putt with the third for a birdie. Masterfully played, sir… ---
