Alright, story time. I started with SLAVE—solid opener, but only the “S” was hanging around in the wrong spot. Not great, not terrible.
Then I tried CLOSE. Boom—“L” and “O” hit yellow, “S” green. The board was starting to look promising.
Finally, I went with LOUSY—and bingo, all green. Victory in three guesses, baby. That’s basically a speedrun in Wordle terms.
Few Tips for Tomorrow
Start with a word that covers vowels and common consonants. (SLATE, CRISP, or AUDIO still slap in 2025.)
Don’t tunnel vision too hard—rotate letters around in your head like it’s Tetris.
And if you’re down bad after 5 guesses, remember: even a lousy win is still a win.
