⬜⬜⬜⬜🟨
⬜🟨🟩⬜⬜
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

3 possibilities per WordleBot. Only 2 using the letter
pattern that I selected. Chose what I considered the
more obscure of the 2.

The current NYT average for this puzzle is 3.7.

Still surprised that this word didn't cause people the
same trouble as MUMMY did. There was even a possible
triple letter word -- POPPY -- but I thought the chances
of a repeat so soon was unlikely. So, decided to use a
word to try to reduce the as many choices as possible.

23 possibilities per WordleBot.

CLAMP eliminated the words using CLM&P and reduced
the choices to 6 using FBH&G but figured the letter pattern
was "__ O GGY" which reduced the choices to just 3 --
FOGGY, BOGGY and HOGGY. WordleBot didn't list HOGGY
but Wordle did not reject it as a possible answer. Chose
FOGGY because it seemed most likely, even though the
others were more "obscure."

The NYT average for this puzzle was 4.5.

3 possibilities per Wordle but really only 2 choices:
FLOUT or CLOUT. It was a coin toss. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

The 3rd possibility was QUOTH which didn't even
cross my mind. LOL! ;)

The final NYT average for this puzzle was 3.7.
