LORIS → Not bad. Let’s try an E and… T or N? Probably should have gone STORE, but saw a different word first
SENOR → Well, let’s try something with the O in the middle, and I guess no more vowels?
STORM → Seems trappish. First word that comes to mind is
SPORK → What else? Live by the…
SWORD

Probably should have seen that one first, for par, but the comedic possibilities of my other guess made it a moral choice. Scoredle finishes with an unimaginative par that scorns the comic choice for its final guess.

SWORD → Whiff. Can I do A, E and the last three WoFcons?
LEANT → Yes. GIANT is out, so I think I’ve just the one vowel. CLANG? or..
CLANK → Hmm, bit of a trap here, but I think I’m safe. Trust the B? No, P.
PLANK → Should have trusted the B.
BLANK
F was also out there. Scoredle also finishes in five.
