right here<\/a>. <\/p>\nSLOPE wasn\u2019t a terrible guess but wasn\u2019t particularly good, either. 149 words remained, though at least I had one green box. CHAIN slashed that number down to just 10.<\/p>\n
I was thinking about The Boys today and Queen Mauve, so I guessed that for my third guess. At this point, it was a coin-toss. I went with GAUGE over GAUZE since I vaguely remember having that as a Wordle before. Lucky me, that was the the correct answer. Huzzah!<\/p>\n
