I’ll take ‘words I had no idea existed’ for $400, Alex!

You can say that again!

I can hear Billy Crystal’s voice in The Princess Bride:

O! VATE a minute!

I think ‘sea of greens’ is a silly badge, but it’s their game and they can give badges for what they want to. You know what would be a cool thing to get a badge for, though? Getting a 3 or less after being blanked on your starting word.

Fell headlong into the trap, but at least I got it.

OVATE → Whiff. And three vowels expended, so I got that going for me.I can cover two more (and two WoFcons) with
SLIMY → For a second I was thinking double-whiff. So there should be a U there, and I can cover the last two WoFcons with
RUNNY → Double-R, I guess? Let’s see, H, F, C, what else? If I’m right and that’s all of it, I’m safe. If not; we’ll see..
FURRY → Not that.
CURRY

Followup was a pretty good 42/1393, third a bit more mediocre at 38/91. After that, as long as I didn’t guess one of the bogus words in the trap, I was safe. Scoredle also finishes in five, with the same set of valid words - but it KOed one of the bogus trap word letters, so it only had three ways to goof, not four like me.

This one kicked my ass today. On my 3rd guess, the Wordle Bot said DOPER would have been a more efficient guess. I feel seen.
