It's sort of funny, I had 3 letters correct on my first guess.   I studied it a bit and decided there were too many possible combinations left with the two remaining letters that I used my second establishing word.   That gave me the last 2 letters in position so guess number 3 was a slam dunk
I had 3 letters on the first guess as well; my standard starting word. The 3rd and 5th letters were in place. Based on that, one word popped immediately into my head. I punched it in but then I had a second thought to change one of the letters. I normally don't stray from my first guess but this time it worked. Got it in 2.

Far cry from yesterday as it took me all 6 tries. It was another feast or famine day as well; all greens and grays.

I got it in two as well. Thought it was the easiest word in a month
The joke I told yesterday was so funny that,
apparently, HR wants to hear it tomorrow  :laugh:

Curious as to what you guys had for the word. I read that the NY Times made a change during the day.

SPOILER ALERT

DO NOT SCROLL DOWN IF YOU HAVEN'T DONE TODAY'S WORDLE























Late enough in the day that I'll go ahead and post mine so it shouldn't spoil anyone's attempt - knock on wood  :surprise:
I usually use a different starting word each day...whatever comes to mind that has no rhyme or reason

They felt the word was inappropriate in today's political environment.

Wherever you read that, they steered you wrong.  I just checked and it's still the same word now that it was early this morning

Rich. At 5:00 this morning when I did it the word was FETUS.  So if others had SHINE then it was changed.

Took me five shots as well and I was getting desperate. Took a coffee break after the 4th miss and when I came back it was the only word I could come up with that fit with the letters I had left and I was sure it was wrong
