Kind of amazing that neither one of us hadn't blind squirreled into one before, but now I can die happy. :roll:

Ties also alter our scoring, but not your NYT tally.

I don't get that.

You had two words to pick from and you chose the wrong one. (I think stump is a less likely solution based on what I’ve learned from playing Wordle. ) But you’ve narrowed it down to one possible solution!

Have you guys ever played “Connections”?
Looked at it, wasn't too interested.

You?

That's what I thought.

Pretty obscure word, I got through 4/6 in a minute, stumbled into the solution with one of those "is this a word" guesses.

Good get.

It's common in crossword puzzles, but I can see how it could STUMP nonplayers.
