Four. Missed by one letter on my third try, but a different letter position than most of those who have posted.

Nice. Easily could have been your day!

Four today. After three guesses all I had gained was a single green letter. But everything that I had eliminated en route left only a few possibilities.

Spoiler

After guess 3, I knew that the only vowel is a single O, in position 3. With everything that had been eliminated, the solutions I came up with were CHOCK, KNOWN, KNOCK. Guessing any one of the three would either be right or would leave only one answer. On a whim, I decided to go with KNOCK.

Five. This one almost got me.

I could have used a wake up call. 6, but it’s solved.

Wordle 539 6/6

 

[Rolltydr]

Five for me with a similar pattern to Patri.

Spoiler

I opened with BAYOU this morning and only got an out of position O. I wanted to finish off the vowels with guess 2 and found the O is the only vowel. Hmmm. I thought there might be 2 O's but with positions 2 and 4 eliminated as options, I couldn't think of any words to fit the patterns available. So, I tried STOCK with the O in the middle position and got the OCK ending the word. Next, I tried FLOCK with the same results. I believe KNOCK was the last option, thank goodness.

Spent about fifteen minutes wrestling with this one.

Five. A toughy for me. On the third try had the last three letters, but had trouble thinking of possible words with what few letters remained.

[VacationForever]

Four. Once I started filling in the blanks, I got it.

Patti is pissed. It took her 4 vice her normal 3. She also loves Scrabble and Crossword Puzzles.

 

[DaveNV]

Four for me. Pretty simple, based on my guesses. I'll take it.

A very fast 4 today.

 

[T_R_Oglodyte]

Three.

Spoiler

After guess 1, my solution list was NAIVE, WAIVE, MAIZE. So, no need to do any more letter eliminations; I can switch to solving mode. If I pick either NAIVE or WAIVE, I will either guess right or the result will eliminate one of the other options. But if I pick MAIZE and that isn't right, then I will still be left with two choices. My hunches have been good lately, and my hunch was WAIVE.

Which just goes to show that hunches are only hunches; there's nothing special about them.

A fast 3 today.

Bringing up the rear with a five.

Spoiler

I went with a new starter again today and also went for consonants on my first 2 words. I opened with PSYCH and got nothing. Next, I tried TREND and got E & N out of position. I tried LOUIE next to hit vowels. It added the ending E. I was trying to think of words that fit the pattern NxIxE when I noticed KNIFE would work so I tried it instead. It left me with the aforementioned pattern and I was NAIVE to ever believe otherwise.
