Wordle 467

⬜⬜🟨⬜🟨 MOCHA

🟨🟨⬜🟨⬜ CLEAN

🟩🟩🟩🟩⬜ SCALL

🟩🟩🟩🟩⬜ SCALP

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 SCALD

It took me a while to figure out what to play for my third guess. I didn’t think that SCALL was a word but I tried it anyway. I could have had it in 3 or 4 if I had tried SCALP or SCALD as my third guess but for whatever reason they didn’t occur to me as possibilities until after I tried SCALL.

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 COLDER

This game went quickly but after the third guess I could see that there were a number of possible answers. I was ready to try HOLDER if my sixth guess had not been correct. I’m not sure what other possible answers there were if that had not worked.

This game took much longer than it probably should have. Even after I knew that it had to begin with the letter “i” it still took me 10-20 minutes to figure out what the 3rd and 4th letters were. I tried all sorts of combinations before I saw the light.
