Did an intentional Useless on 2/6. Worked out well.

Spoiler:

2/6
CHOKE was a solid guess, and a lucky one. There is just one possible solution left, as far as I can tell. You should solve the puzzle on your next turn.

Of course it did, I was astride the wall.

My 2/6 SCOUR was good, but not that good.

As you can see my 2/6 and 3/6 were both Uselesses with minimal gains. Oh well, tomorrow.

Crap, I almost certainly would have beaten you without the Uselesses. No, no cookies, no toking, no booze. Sadly, it was all my failure.

Spoiler:

SMIRK was my 4/6 try.

How can Wordlebot set odds? All of those are fine words.

Too many options, but I am an idiot for not even thinking of the solution.

Those aren't odds, they're what other players did in the same situation.

I'm glad. Losing 2 points sucks, but I never would have beaten that. Getting those first three letters makes all the difference.

How could you not use an S?

Spoiler:

According to Oxford Dictionaries, calculated on entries in the Concise Oxford Dictionary (11th edition 2004), it is R, followed by T, N, and S.

It's the next line after my saved Wordle link. My issue was not one of strategy.

Spoiler:

I considered TAS_Y multiple times, along with every other possible 3rd letter. The problem was that I didn't look at T for the 4th letter since the highlight was already green.

Or, more succinctly:

Ultimate opps.

LOL, I'm usually the one that jazzes up the double letters.

We both got trapped by having two vowels and nothing else.

Then, one consonant got us out of the traps, finally.
