SPOOK
SPOOF
After two clues I thought of seven possible words but SWOON, SPOON and SNOOP
were in the already-used words list. Assuming I didn’t miss any words,
SNOWY, SPOOK and SPOOF would all guarantee a Four, but asking SWOOP
would have risked a Five.
I’d eliminated R so needn’t worry about a certain “new-fangled” word:
The only SPORK I knew was Charlie Sporck, one of the quirkier Silicon Valley CEO’s.

Looks like I was lucky to get a four today, considering all the fives and the fact that I had a whiff on the first word.
Definitely a typo.
FORUM → Hey, an F off the bat is not bad. I need an E, and a couple WoFcons, so I swap the letters and try
OFTEN → Not much help there. If I try A, and move those letters to the end, I’m seeing
ALOOF → Double-O! And it pretty much has to be
SPOOF
This was a good day to be playing yesterday’s solution as start word. Still, tough enough to give only a par, though a tap-in. Scoredle gets a par as well, but uses my third guess for its second, then goes straight for a bogus word to cut down its options. Tough break for the algorithm, and it apparently didn’t cull the nonbogus options.

The first two words are the same as I used for #1579.
After the 2nd clue, Catty was the ONLY word I could think of that fit.

SPOOF → Whiff. Good first word second time…
LATER → That worked well. But what next? N is still out there, and so are we (U and I). Not seeing vowels very much here, except maybe a Y, which would lead to
NATTY → Good guess! But now a bit of a trap. At least my start word used P and F. Trust the B?
BATTY → Nope. Next letter!

?ATCH was also a possible for my third guess, which would have led to a very different set of plays - I lucked out that I chose the option I did. Scoredle makes an incredible play with its fourth guess (with about 10 nonbogus options to choose from) to get a tap-in bogey.
