QUEUE
FUGUE
I made a minor error at four, as I’d already used an E in the third spot. But QUEUE was a good word nonetheless, placing two U’s and confirming there was only one E.
And in fact, it left only the correct solution.

QUEUE had already been used. Actually, practically all the Q-words have been played, there’s only a few left that haven’t. I also thought of JUVIE, but I figured that was too slang for the NYT.
Went 0-for-10 on my consonants on my first three guesses, but at least I got those two green vowels to give some structure to the word. And when the only consonants left are B,F,G,J,K,Q,V,W,X,Z, it didn’t take long to run through the possibilities.
It’s cool. Not as critical as it was much earlier in the game and these threads. Just a reminder for going forward. Thanks.

TABBY
Sleuth word at four to distinguish between TABBY, TAFFY and TAWNY.
Spoiler tags doing weird things. Instead of opening and closing tags the opening tag opens a spoiler box then automatically double spaces the lines.

SLATE
TAINT
TABBY
Taint, introducing only two new letters and with one definition marked vulgar,
seems like an odd choice. But it was the fitting word which guaranteed
Three IF the secret word was on the list of 7 unused fitters I’d thought of.
(There were at least 20+ fitters on the already-used list.)

FUGUE → Whiff. Plus, that repeated U means a wasted letter guess. Couldn’t have been VAGUE today, huh? First guess second time
ROAST → That’s not bad. Here I was flabbergasted to find that LATIN isn’t a valid word. What’s up with that? So, still obsessed with the I, I went for various letters and hit on
LAITH → which should have been LAITY, upon reflection. Still, it did lead me to putting the T at the front, and when I wanted to check the Y a word came to me immediately
TABBY
With three nonbogus words left after the third guess, it was some amount of luck for me to get the par, but it appears I could have evaded even the trappiest trap. Scoredle goes the distance, and still hadn’t checked for the L, so had a 50/50 shot at a miss today.

I haven’t eaten a six in quite a while. I could have guaranteed a five with a sleuth word, but was pretty certain there weren’t enough words for a fail, so I went for it; just kept guessing wrong.
Turns out I was right about a loss not being possible, but still felt pretty nervous at the end.
