🟩🟩🟩⬛️🟩 COUGH

🟩🟩🟩⬛️🟩 COUTH

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 COUCH

Time 2:45

POUCH did not occur to me when I was working on my second guess but I wonder now if my second guess had been POUCH if I would have finished this one in 3 guesses. Probably not because I probably would have tried either TOUCH or VOUCH first.

This is the 10th time this month that I have finished a game in 4 guesses. This is the 11th consecutive month that I have finished at least 10 games in 4 guesses. I have finished at least 10 games in 4 guesses in 42 of the past 51 months.

This is the first 0Y game of my current winning streak. This is the 12th consecutive winning streak in which I have had at least one 0Y game. I have had at least one 0Y game in 18 of my 19 winning streaks. The only winning streak in which I did not have a 0Y game was my seventh (3 games).

I wasn’t certain that my fourth guess would be the answer but I was having trouble finding another word that fit so I gave it a try. I have no idea how many other possible solutions there were at that point.

Time 3:15

I think I got very lucky with my second and third guesses. There were plenty of other options but I chose ones that helped quite a bit. I think my fourth guess was the only possible answer at that point in the game.

🟩🟩🟩⬛️🟩 CHUNK

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 CHUCK

Time 4:20

I spent most of my time on my second guess.

This is the second time I have played CHUCK and the second time that it has been the answer. The first time was on 04/13/22. This is the 13th word to have been the answer twice.

My game from 04/13/22 was my first 0Y game. It took me 5 guesses to finish that game. My next to last guess in that game was also CHUNK.

Time 3:40

I was pretty sure after my fourth guess that there were just two possible answers. I tried them in the order they occurred to me.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 0.1.4 and finished it in 6 guesses. This is the third month in a row that I have started at least one game with 0.1.4 and finished it in 6 guesses. I have started at least one game with 0.1.4 and finished it in 6 guesses in 31 of the past 51 months.

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 AGREE

Time 3:15

This is the second time that AGREE has been the answer. The first time was in Aug 2021, before I started to play. This is the 12th word that has has been the answer twice.

This is the first time this month and the first time since March that I have started a game with 1.0.4 and finished it in 4 guesses. I have started at least one game with 1.0.4 and finished it in 4 guesses in 38 of the past 51 months.

Time 4:50

I could have had this one in two guesses. WRECK was the first word that occurred to me after my first guess. Too bad. So sad.
