A 4 after missing on a 50-50 guess between owing and going. I wanted owing because it gave me more intel. Doing was already used. CHASE, TRIOL, OWING, GOING. My streak is at 1,014.
Well done, Doug. I thought you might go for vying or dying, but you got it. After “stare”, I had nothing. “Doily” gave me the “O” and “i” in position. I thought of “boing, boink, and zoink,”because I love words that are sounds. 😅 “Going” seemed a little more grown-up. So a “3” for me today. stare- do”i”ly- GOING
I got the solve in four today.... LEARN ("N" out of position....one letter is better than none.) SNOUT ("N" and now also "O" out of position.) DOING (Now we're cookin'... 'O', 'I', 'N', and 'G', all in position.) GOING (Double "G" is the key...... Four-word-solve today.)
After STARE gave me nothing, DOILY proved very helpful with the O and I in position. The only consonant pair I could think of for the ending was NK, so I went with BOINK on my third guess. That was wrong but it at least confirmed the N. It took me a moment to realized what I had missed...the NG ending. GOING seemed to be the only word that fit. A par four which went fairly smoothly after the total miss on my first guess.
Par 4 for me today but a silly third guess where I kept the o where it was not but it gave me the g so good and bad! PESTO, VIOLA, GROIN, GOING. By the end I felt not sure if I was coming or going.....
Anybody else remember Gerald McBoing-Boing? A great cartoon from the 50’s. Oh and “one more thing”. (Borrowed from “Colombo”.) Today I stretched my streak to “500”. My longest previous streak was 159. That ended on 4-25-23 with the word “Joker”. 😮 Good luck to all “Wordlers”.
Using GYVED as an eval will result in these scenarios: ~ If G turned 🟩, you know you got it = GOING ~ If Y turned 🟩 then either V or D should turn 🟨 = DYING or VYING ~ If D turned 🟨 and Y grey/gray, you knew the answer would be DOING.
@@c0ntrar1an eval words are always better. That's why hard mode sucks. DOING tried more words (edit: I meant letters) without repeating, which tends to work better but can screw you. The best way is after SWING write down all the ING words (you can name no cheating), which was too exhausting for me. Then guess the most common letters. I missed after SWING, THING, DYING, ICING didn't work. Turns out Thing was a bad guess, only --ing word with H. (HOING is spelled HOEING)
PENNE STAND BRING CLING OWING GOING. I looked up now other choices were coing which I don’t know what it means. Scoredl says hoing was the remaining but I tried that as my fifth guess and wasn’t a valid word Maybe luckily I entered it wrong. Anyway I snuck by.
Since PENNE was already a solve, (in # 1138), I used PENNA to start. Similar result, but at least it had a chance. penna-drink-cling-going was my chain today.

DOING (Now we're cookin'... 'O', 'I', 'N', and 'G', all in position.)
GOING (Double "G" is the key...... Four-word-solve today.)
I thought this one was pretty tough. Audio, onion, noise, point, going. I managed to make a little progress with every guess.
Each guess was a reasonable choice. Well played but unlucky.
ARISE -> THING -> BOING -> GOING 🎉
SPORK, MOWED, COUGH, GOLLY, GONZO, GOING
i took out 14 letters with these words.

I like my evaluation words for now.
What about DOING? You missed it in your guesses.
Also missed Vying. Got it in 4 today, after Hoist, Voice, and Doing.
'Doing' is why I lost the game today. 😂

7:46 no, it's not 50/50 ...DYING, GOING, DOING, VYING
Doing was the better guess
@michaellee4276 that's in hindsight. What if the answer was VYING? Typing GYVED as an eval was the best I can think of.
Using GYVED as an eval will result in these scenarios:
~ If G turned 🟩, you know you got it = GOING
~ If Y turned 🟩 then either V or D should turn 🟨 = DYING or VYING
~ If D turned 🟨 and Y grey/gray, you knew the answer would be DOING.

@michaellee4276 Playing evals is definitely better. There's more certainty to it.

PENNE STAND BRING CLING OWING GOING. I looked up now other choices were coing which I don’t know what it means. Scoredl says hoing was the remaining but I tried that as my fifth guess and wasn’t a valid word Maybe luckily I entered it wrong. Anyway I snuck by.
So glad you got it! 👍🏻
24 common 5 letter words end in ING. About as hard as it gets unless you started with a G-word. Or MOIST.
This one was tough for me today as well. Got it in five--RAISE - FLINT - DYING - OWING - GOING.
could have been DOING. That's where we went wrong😏
There was also VYING. 😊
Since PENNE was already a solve, (in # 1138), I used PENNA to start. Similar result, but at least it had a chance.
