Saved par after a slow start. It was either that or GRAPH.
Eh, it’s fine that we don’t all have to agree on how we like to play. I got an ace once, and it was fun, I guess, but then it sort of cheats you out of actually playing the game.
I really enjoy @SunUp’s method of starting with the previous day’s solution, even if it precludes ever scoring an ace. That sort of spurred my idea of having a random word generator pick my starter each day. No, it doesn’t guarantee the most optimal letters, but it can present different sorts of challenges, and to me, helps keep the game from getting stale.
That’s an interesting and fun approach. But I happen to agree with @kaylasdad99 . I pick a starting word that has not been a previous Wordle solution and also is one that knocks out frequently used letters. But I go a bit farther and select 3 starting words and I go with those unless that day’s puzzle reveals some good results, and then I’ll pivot from my 3 words.
My 3 starting words ideally exhaust 15 unique letters from the most frequently used letters and also A E I O U Y. For example my current 3 starting words are: STEAK, COLIN, UPDRY.
Words 2 and 3 are not likely to be a Wordle solution but they serve my purposes. Before that, my previous starting words were: LEAST BOUND PRIVY. But on 2025-09-01 that Wordle was LEAST, so I’ve been using 3 new words since then.
It’s always nice to get a 1!

FLUTE → Whiff. It’s not necessary a great first word second, but I’ll try
ROANS → Not bad. I & Y are still out there, if I combine what I have with a D I can try
DIARY → So the R is in second. ?RA?Y, don’t think the vowels are repeated (ARABY? Hmm, probably not) so I can see CRAZY or…

I thought my third guess was a good one, but per Scoredle it’s only 17/46 possibles after two, so rather lucky on my part. Either of my par-putt possibles would pair well with TRAIN tomorrow, so dare I hope for a two? Scoredle’s run has five valid words out of nine total after its third guess, so it does well to get a bogey.

Whats that Elvis song? 
"We’re caught in a trap."
It’s better than being caught in a CRACK.
Just say No (not to the Elvis song, but to the one in the plumber’s pants).
To add to the conversation, like Bullitt my starter word was LEAST until it was the Wordle word. Then I just rearranged the letters to STEAL. It’s working for me because I want to get another ace, and they are very common letters. I also use a used word list.
Brilliant! And I can sometimes be really slow. I should’ve done like you did.
So now I will! I’m going to change mine, and also because I can then go back to my previous other 2 words, BOUND and PRIVY. None of these 3 words have been the Wordle.
I can be so DUH sometimes!
Thanks, @Rebo !

Copycat! 
Just kidding. Here’s hoping we both get another ace!
Yes!!
Yeah, I’m still waiting. My starting word is SLANT, which hasn’t yet been a solution, and I’ve used it as my starting word over 1200 times. I hope they start reusing solutions soon, but at the same time, I hope they don’t start doing so until after my starting word is used as a solution. Kinda torn, I am. 
Like Bullitt, I have a sequence of followup words if I don’t have enough info after one or two guesses to try to guess the solution or narrow it down in a specific way. My second and third words are CHORE (which has been a solution; my easiest 2!) and DUMPY (which hasn’t yet).
