Good to see another 3 after yesterday’s 3. 😊😊

Today’s Wordle:
Target Word: TOXIC
# Of Guesses: 4.1 WordleBot average per Marc McLaren*, 3 for WordleGuru. 😊

Typical or atypical target word? — Atypical, it contains 2 vowels (O, I) but no compound consonants. The “norm” is 2 vowels and 1 compound/paired consonant.

Seed Word: STAIR – The “go-to” seed word starting March 1, 2023.
What we learned from the Seed Word: The seed word revealed 2 letters – I in the 4^th position and T without its position.  Too many possibilities at this stage.  Need more discovery.

2nd word: CLONE (the 2^nd word of the go to pair STAIR/CLONE): Only 3 possibilities at this stage – OPTIC, TOXIC and TOPIC.

3rd word:  Any of the 3 words would serve the purpose of an elimination word.  My gutfeel was driving towards TOXIC, while data was pointing towards TOPIC.  I decided to let my gutfeel take precedence today.  Got lucky. 😊

Final thoughts: Wordle is a game of luck and skill.   Sometimes luck favors the game and sometimes it favors the player. Today luck was on my side.
