My post-carryover guesses were Scoredle-rated as 4/991, 2/31 and 1/5, so pretty solid. Also pretty lucky, because while Scoredle also gets the sea of green, it takes a detour I managed to avoid and ends up with a bogey off the same two-guess sequenced that made my ending. Just glad to get back on the positive side of the ledger. ---
