And here I thought to myself @Susan1 is going to hate this one!
A lot depends on what you decide to use for the second word. Sometimes, it clicks. The day I picked Choke for the second word with only the O and it was right was totally random. I should have bought a lottery ticket that day.

This was me today. After the 4th guess I knew that there were 4 other common words it could have been, and after the 5th guess didn't work, I took a breath, looked at the 3 remaining possibilities and thought which one was most likely because it was in widest usage.

Perfect streak of 65 games maintained - phew, indeed.

yup, after the second guess I thought 'o crap' I can still lose this. But I got lucky.

@PatChan4O once again we had a very similar experience!

I find it interesting trying to guess what y'all did. Here's mine:
LEARN, COUGH, FOCUS
BLIND SHOUT FOCUS [\spoiler] I see some similarity in thought there. Took two hours and some breaks for me lol

I'm doing Wordle, Quordle and Squareword every day. Any other recommendations?

I'm still deciding whether I like semantle - 11 days so far and I'm intrigued enough to keep going.

I lucked out with today's word:

Wordle 268 3/6

🟨⬜🟩⬜⬜
⬜🟨🟩⬜🟩
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

Words were: their, pleat, smelt

Curious about your fourth word, @PatChan4O. Can't immediately think of a word with the same letters minus the last one.

Well, it was fair…..that’s about all I can say about it.
I was having a tough time with this one. You can see the goof I made between lines 2 and 3 and I can’t remember what I dreamt up on line 4. I guessed the correct word but didn't think the TIMES would use it and dithered for a while before finally trying it.

The TIMES owes us a skating term (can’t think of one that would fit, actually :) ).
