MOVER
Yet another damn -ER word.
And I played it badly. Should have gone with a second sleuth word at four, but there were at least 3 possible solutions I’d missed, including the eventual answer. Failure, in the form of ROVER, was still on the table, so this one was a true “Phew!”

CREED → Ah, the duplicate E is not wasted! Feels like an -ER ending, let’s add an A and two WoFcons for
TASER → I’m feeling a little nervous here… next step would be an O and the last two WoFcons
LONER → Ohh, the trap is here. What should I try?
BOXER → Not that.
POKER → Not that either. What do I have left? HOMER, HOVER, MOWER, MOVER, FOYER, anything else? Can’t think of it, so it’s a 1-in-5 to eke out a win. I should have thought about this earlier, MOVER would have been the obvious thing to try - but no point now with one guess left. I’ll try
HOVER
HOMER, ROWER, MOWER, FOYER along with the answer, the word I tried, and the word Wheelz thought of at the end - so 1-in-7 odds on my last shot at a win. That’s brutal. Especially when I was thinking of the answer as “a word I should have tried earlier but now there’s no point”. Perhaps I need to preanalyze the ?v?ER trap (where V is a vowel) so that I don’t do as hideously on it again as in the past. Scoredle does a little bit better - it also loses, but with only 1-in-6 odds on its last shot.

EMOJI Just tried this for s and g’s. Not real helpful for getting more WofCons.
MOVER
ETA: Looking at everyone’s posts, I’m truly lucky i didn’t fall into the -ER trap! The M was a lucky early find.

Today after 2 I had the BOWER/DOWER/MOWER triple to choose among, as well as DOPER, VIREO, and the solution, so I went with a sleuth word on 3 which did the job.
I mentioned yesterday that I’d had a lot of blanks lately on my starting word. Today’s was the seventh instance of this in the past 20 games, with my starting word blanking on EERIE, CROCK, PUFFY, BUDGE, DOWDY, and yesterday’s and today’s solutions.

After 3, at first I had no bleepin’ clue what the solution might be, and was thinking I was probably looking at a 5 or 6. One thing I did was check to see what past solutions would have matched the yellows and grays I had. I didn’t find any, which was my first clue: I could only find one, LAYER, that satisfied the yellows, but it had two letters that had been eliminated by all those grays. So I figured if I could find any word that worked, it was probably the solution.
So I got out my notepad, arranged the three yellows in all 32 legal combinations, and started plugging in my handful of remaining consonants into the blanks. Fortunately I stumbled over the answer fairly quickly, and it was indeed the only remaining possibility. But I was very glad to have escaped with a 4.
