Excellent choice — PLUMB is exactly what I would’ve picked in this situation. You’ve narrowed it down to only four words: DUMMY, GUMMY, MUMMY or YUMMY.

Of course you made the 1 in 4 choice ftw.

Spoiler:

I considered GUMMY as early as 2/6, but overthought it as being unlikely for Wordle.

Why is PLUMB "exactly what (Wordle) would’ve picked" when there were 4 other options - 1 correct and 3 which would've "narrowed it down" even further than PLUMB did?

Good point. Maybe because it used more letters?

I never would have beaten 2 minutes. Too bad I didn't read this article first:

Jill Biden Sums Up Donald Trump With 1 Withering Word

... On Wednesday’s broadcast of ABC’s “The View,” co-host Joy Behar asked the first lady what Democrats have to do to get across that her husband, President Joe Biden, is “competent, alert and doing the job and it’s not about his age.”

“The other one,” Behar said, referring to presumptive GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump, “is doddery, doesn’t remember anything and can’t put a sentence together, and has brain farts in the middle of a paragraph, and they go after Joe.”

Jill Biden argued that this election isn’t about age, despite the attempts of some conservative figures ― including Trump himself ― to portray Biden as in cognitive decline.

Biden will be 81 and Trump will be 78 when the November election takes place, she pointed out, saying: “They’re basically the same age.”

“This election is about character,” she added.

“You have two choices,” she continued. “You have my husband, Joe, who you all know, who has integrity. He’s strong, he’s steady, he’s a leader, he’s smart, he’s energetic.”

Then, in one word, the first lady summed up Trump.

Spoiler:

“Or you have chaos,” she said, drawing applause from the audience.

“Yes, you have chaos,” she repeated.

ORATE 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.

I was thisclose to typing in SCARY as 2/6, but at the last second decided on another WoF letter but didn't want to double letter the T.

Back when I only used three or four starter words, STARE was a mainstay. Glad I didn't use it as I'm sure I would've gone with START for 2/6.

I pretty much use a different starter every day always using two vowels and at least one WoF letter. I think that's roughly when I started getting hotter.

I ran through the entire WoF when I already had the only WoF letter in 1/6 I ran through all the vowels except Y until only the double O was available at 5/6
