I spent most of my time on my third guess. It took me a while to decide that I should make it a word that had five letters I had yet to try.

Time 1:50

I considered making GRIFT my fourth guess but I was pretty sure that it had been the answer in the recent past. I was right but it wasn’t quite as recently as I thought it had been. GRIFT was the answer on 05/25/25. GRAFT was the answer seven days ago. That might have been what I kind of sort of recalled.

What is undeniably true is that my third guess was a big leap forward from my second guess.

Time 4:00

I decided to go with Plan B after my second guess because I saw that there were more than a couple possible answers. I figured that some of them might have been the answer in the past but I didn’t want to check because that would feel a bit like cheating.
