POSIT → I’d like to place that P… and try another WoFcon, and vowel, and I can do it all with
LIPPY → With the P placed, I can try an -IPE ending, and follow up by looking for a word with two WoFcons
SNIPE → Yep, and alas, I should have looked longer with that duplicate S. Look through consonants to try to find a word with a suitable pair
GRIPE

Should have been a birdie, after a 4/53 followup. Scoredle converts it comfortably, with a remarkably similar followup to mine.

I exactly matched Wordle Bot today, guess for guess. I don’t know whether I’ve ever done that before.

According to Scordle, my choices were not bad (110/1354, 5/56, 4/10, 1/1), but I still feel I played this one somewhat carelessly. Still made good progress at every step, I suppose.
