Down to two after a lucky second guess, and one had been used before.

PS: FWIW, since no one else is revealing their board solution, I may stop doing it myself
to eliminate the extra steps involved.

I started doing it in hope that it would be useful to others in choosing their words. I also
hoped that others would do so in return but that never happened.

So, today might be the last day that reveal my word choices.

I refrained from posting my solutions as I had no inkling that you wanted us to as well. I can start if anyone wants to see how my brain works (or doesn't work).

I only mentioned this once back on Page 5 about 2 years when I started the thread. The thread is 546 pages long now.

So, most people probably have never seen it. It just thought that since I was doing it, others might too.

It takes more effort but it would be interesting to see how others go about playing the game, It perhaps was more important 2 yrs ago when playing Wordle was new & we needed to learn certain strategies to play it better but perhaps not so any longer.

But, if you're willing to put in the extra effort to reveal your Wordle board (the day after its played) as I have been doing, I'd be interested in seeing it.
