⬛️🟨🟨⬛️⬛️ BIRTH
⬛️🟩🟩🟨⬛️ PRIDE
🟩🟩🟩⬛️⬛️ DRINK
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 DRILL

Time 2:20

DRILL was the only word that I could think of (after my third guess) that fit. It came to mind fairly quickly after my third guess but I hesitated before trying it while I looked to see if there were others.

The last time that I started a game with 0.2.3, and in which my next to last guess was 3.0.2, and that I finished in 4 guesses happened exactly two years ago today on 10/23/23.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 0.2.3 and finished it in 4 guesses. This is the eleventh consecutive month that I have started at least one game with 0.2.3 and finished it in 4 guesses. I have started at least one game with 0.2.3 and finished it in 4 guesses in 42 of the past 44 months.
