I think the whole ‘badges’ thing is silly - Badges? We don’t need no steenkin’ badges! - but the FTFNYT giving out a ‘badge’ for each 2 you get is silly even in that context, because each individual 2 is largely a matter of luck.

This one very much included, but I’ll take it! :slight_smile:

NYLON - I would likely have gone with ‘pylon’, but I came to the ‘n’ first. :smiley:

PYLON
NYLON

I considered NYLON at three, but I have an aversion to doubling letters not already in the puzzle.
I did not realize that PYLON and NYLON were the only two (non-bogus) words left, so it was basically a coin flip anyway.

AMUSE → Whiff. Do I go with WoFcons or vowels for the second guess? With three vowels gone, I’ll try to knock the rest out here, and add two WoFcons. I couldn’t think of any words, so tried a few words and the first one Wordle actually took was
NOILY → Which I instantly saw as
NYLON

Lucky guess - it was the only word left. Scoredle also makes a birdie, with what looks like a one-in-three putt after checking two vowels with its second guess. More than one way to skin a cat.
