Same here. I need to start seeing if possible guesses have already been used in past Wordles, I would have been able to skip guess #4 and then #5 would have been #4 instead. Phooey.

Meta-knowledge allowed me to winnow down to just the one on the fourth guess, as I knew that “SHITE” was out.

CHASE
POUTY
WRING
BRINK

I wasn’t sure if Pouty would be a valid word, but it goes with the theme of the Wordle words these days :laughing:. Really, I was just checking the commons, but striiiike two. Though it wasn’t so bad, as that left only one vowel to play…I actually thought of playing Brink before Wring, but changed my mind. So 4 it is again then (been on a roll with 4’s lately).
