LINER
SIREN
I thought I had a tap-in, but there were actually four legit possibilities (SIREN, RISEN, RIVEN, RIPEN).
Guess I’ll take a little New Year’s luck.

Slant is a good start, but N is in 9th place among Wardle letters, with less
than half the occurrence of 1st-place E. Worse-comes-to-worst I can follow
Slate with the near-perfect Crony. Today was the ninth time I’ve gotten three
(or four!) hits with Slate; I’ve had two hits 35 times, 1 hit 20 times, zero 7 times.
I took time to think of 12 fitting words. Azole and Gable aren’t Wardle words,
six other words were already used; so the choice was among Lance, Ankle,
Valve, Fable. Of these only Ankle guaranteed a Birdie. NY Times sometimes
uses non-Wardle words (Gable), but the percentage play was the Wardle word.
Cheating? I would WELCOME a more complete word-list with RE-USE.

Lucky here. Could’ve been GABLE, VALVE, ADDLE, or maybe even AGLEE or AXILE. AGILE, AMBLE, AMPLE, APPLE, EAGLE, and VALUE had already been used.
Still, starting the new year off on the right note.

Wordle 1,657 6/6* New Year's Day 2026
SIREN → One little E. I’ll try to place it with a repeat, and try the last two WoFcons and an A as well
ELATE → Pretty good luck there. Not AGILE, so the A is probably in second, so ?A?LE, I’m seeing
MAPLE → Tip o’ the hat to our friends from the great white north, there. Looks like its all consonants left, so in keeping with our sudden Canadian theme, I’ll go with
GABLE → Hmm. A new year’s day trap. I think I’m safe
CABLE → I hope I’m safe
FABLE
I’m safe. And I was safe - the only other word in the trap was virtually the definition of bogus. Scoredle takes a bogey, by stepping into the trap with its third guess, avoiding one of my guesses but taking a different one of its own. Not necessarily the best way for me to start off the new year, but I’ll take it.
