Well, I was pretty lucky today. Any word with “A” in box 3 and “E” in box 5 is generally a good place to start. That’s a tip. If neither works, it’s pretty easy to come up with a second guess where O and I come together. In any case, SPARE only left me with 33 words and THINK reduced them to just one: SHOVE for the win! Huzzah!

Competitive Wordle Score

I get one point for guessing three tries and another point for beating the bot that made four tries. 2 x 2 for 2XP Friday = 4 points for me! Huzzah!
