Cracked in Excel using the three most likely letter combinations based on my starting three yellows and then weeding out the large number of words resulting that had been used before. Left me with two, assuming I hadn't missed any words or been wrong about the three-letter letter combinations I chose to crack, and I took the one with the least common letter to slide under par. I did think I had a great chance on my second guess, and it would have been a great word, but alas, it was not to be.

The other word was FINAL.

NYT Average: 4.7 (+0.1)

WordleBot raised the NYT average from 4.6 to 4.7.

So, I'm calling this a Par 5 now too based on a score
distribution of: 7.3% in 3; 35.0% in 4; & 70.6% in 5.
