With 329 words left after my 1st guess, I got it in 2. I completely pulled that out of my ass, it might be my best Wordle play yet.

Got some luck on the starter today. Had a good shot at the deuce but just missed.
Pulling back some older ones…
Wordle 1,962 5/6* 11/2/2026
VIPER → Whiff, what can I make out of this? For some reason, a proper name works
SLOAN → There might be a U… or a Y. I can check the latter with the last two WoFcons via
STORY → Better check U, via
SHOUT → 4th could be T (unlikely), S, another O? I see one word for the last
SCOOT
In my haste to finish I didn’t see that I was repeating a letter with my third guess. So my Scoredle grades look lousy for this puzzle till I get to the endgame. Scoredle finishes in four.
Tuesday was too exciting for multiple reasons, so I lost my participation streak.
Wordle 1,964 3/6* 11/4/2026
POUCH → Odd start for an odd word. Can try E and three WoFcons with
TUNES → Pretty much has to be an initial consonant - perhaps the N? RUTAN doesn’t work (proper noun), so if I go NUT- I could try NUTRI? Naw. Terminal Y? it gives us one possibility
NUTTY
BURNT, QUINT and (slangy) QUANT were also possible - I’m a little surprised I didn’t try the obvious go-with for that placed second letter. I think I was safe from defeat at that point. Scoredle takes a bogey, but it’s a tap-in.
Wordle 1,965 5/6* 11/5/2026
NUTTY → Whiff. Let’s try a word that’s not in the set of remaining possible solutions, shall we?
LEANS → I mean, LASER was right there. But at least I’ve got a good word to match up O with that A on
CROAK → Not that that means there is an O. But the consonants were a good pickup. Let’s put all the letters we know together at the front, then see what we can add on with
ACRID → A in second? Can’t be CARRY. ??RAC goes nowhere. MARCY? Hmm, MARCH or
PARCH
I felt like we had done MARCH before, so thankfully I looked for another possible. After my inauspicious followup, I did 109/429, 6/11 and then 2/3 for the win. Scoredle also goes five with some bad luck on the endgame trap.
Wordle 1,966 4/6* 11/6/2026
PARCH → Huh, not bad. I see one that I just have to try, I think it’s a Wordle word - but here on the Dope, if it’s not, it should be!
TROCK → Not a perfect word, but a very successful one. How many possibles left? There’s gotta be a vowel in the middle, and there’s a good word with one
BRICK → So, U or E in the middle? I don’t see much other than TRUCK for a U, and the T is already gone. It’s slangy, but I’ll try
DRECK
WRECK was also there, and I’d have probably tried it first had I seen it. My guesses went 12/34, 1/8 and 2/3 for the par, with the noted alternate being Scordle’s pick for that last guess. Scoredle’s preference for the alternate puts it into a bogey for the puzzle, though that was its worst-case scenario.

Dumb mistake at two, and then played carelessly the rest of the way.
Looks like I’m not the only one who had a tough time with this one though.
