⬛️⬛️🟩🟩🟩 LUSTY

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 HASTY

Time 1:30

Way too easy. If I had been HASTY then I might have finished this one in under a minute.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 2.0.3. This is the second month in a row that I have started at least one game with 2.0.3. I have started at least one game with 2.0.3 in 36 of the past 49 months.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 2.0.3 and finished it in 3 guesses. This is the second month in a row that I have started at least one game with 2.0.3 and finished it in 3 guesses. This is the 25th time that I have started a game with 2.0.3 and finished it in 3 guesses.

This is my first 0Y game this month. This is the 24th consecutive month that I have had at least one 0Y game. I have had at least one 0Y game in 46 of the past 49 months.

According to the NYT this is my 124th Sea of Greens game. I think that SoG is the same as 0Y but my count is 135. Possibly my first 11 0Y games occurred before I got a registered account with NYT but I’m not sure because I don’t recall when that was.

LORRY and LOBBY came to mind after my third guess. I played them in the order that I thought of them.

⬛️🟩🟩⬛️⬛️ FOGGY

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 VOGUE

Time 8:35

I wasn’t crazy about my third guess but it was the first word that came to mind that fit. I tried to find something else but I wasn’t looking for something that used all three of the remaining vowels at that point. Even after my third guess it probably took at least a couple minutes before VOGUE occurred to me.

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 GUNKY

Time 5:30

I feel as though I got very lucky with my fourth guess. It did not come to mind until after my third guess.

This is the fifth time that my next to last guess has been 1.0.4 and that I have finished in 4 guesses while playing in hard mode or as if the game was set to hard mode. The four prior times this happened were 07/17/22, 07/24/23, 07/17/24, and 02/13/26.

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 SHEEP

Time 4:45

I almost went with SWEEP instead of SHEEP but at the last second I changed up my fourth guess. Good call in this case but doing that doesn’t always work.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 0.1.4. This is the 49th consecutive month that I have started at least one game with 0.1.4.

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 THEFT

Time 3:05

I’m pretty sure there was only one possible answer by the time I got to my fifth guess.

I checked after the fact and my first four guesses have have all been the answer in the past.

This the 27th time that I have started a game with 0.0.5 during my current winning streak. That’s exactly half the number of times (54) that I started games with 0.0.5 during my longest winning streak (443) games.

🟩🟩⬛️🟩🟩 LIKEN

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 LINEN

LINEN was also in the running to be my fourth guess but I thought of LIKEN first so I went with that instead.
