Took 4: started with Anime, then sharp. Then I had the last 3 in position, with too many choices, so I did an eval word befog…that led me to blare and my solve for the day.
I also suggested anime after manga was the solve of the day. Tod’s I somewhat mimicked Doug. Vines, plate, now I had 3 greens. Flame, glade, blaze, and finally blare! PHEW! When you have three greens after two guesses you are thinking birdie. Instead a double bogey. Hey Doug why don’t you start with bogey?

Oh, phew, Doug, you got it!! I didn't realize the luck of my 3rd guess now that I've seen this 'LARE' trap they laid out. Par 4 today... Anime, Parse, Brace, Blare. I'll be 'Ready' to start tomorrow with 'Ready'!! Good starter, Doug!
Oh, my! That was scary to watch. One never knows where the second guess comes from. Sometimes, they're great (for me today) and sometimes, not so much. Still glad you got it in six instead of seven. I like "beating" your score, but still hate to see you fail. And, there were so many are so many ARE combos to deal with, I feel a bit lucky, too. anime-brake-blare was my chain today.
A lot of luck with my starting word (LEARN) today, with a "2-word-solve" in sight, then I had to deal with the same trap as Doug. I finally ended with a four-solve. LEARN GLARE FLARE BLARE It seems Doug and I both had an aversion to "blare". And the funny thing is, "blare" was the first word I thought of when choosing my second word, but I opted for "glare" instead.
I think my swags may have taken over before I knew it. Audio, stare, flare, glare, blare. No harm, no foul. Edit: Good to see Doug didn't run out of guesses either.

Phew, Doug. That one made me nervous. I started with “stare”, wow! _ _ ARE. I was thinking of a “2”. I had aware, blare and glare. (Flare already used) Tried “glare”. Darn! So a “3” for me today. stARE- gLARE- BLARE
ANIME STARE BLARE Have you ever considered doing Symble? It's three parts Wordle and one part Mastermind; you have to figure out what the clues mean as well as the word of the day. I usually start with today's Wordle as the starting word.
Yeah, I got it in four but wasn't happy about my process. I made a logical mistake that cost me a stroke. STARE gave me three greens and a very good chance at a "two solve" which I felt duty-bound to shoot for. I carefully looked at every possibility and came up with aware, flare, and glare. I then concluded that if I go with xLARE (either with F or G at the front), I'll either hit it right then or know for sure if it's the other one (if the L is green) or if it's aware (if the L is not green). Then I discovered that flare had already been the answer which simplified things considerably. So in my mind it was a 50/50 between aware and glare. I went for AWARE, which whiffed, and then confidently played GLARE, only to discover it was wrong. It was then that I figured out what I had missed. BLARE for the four. My fault for being careless.
Just be glad they didn't use the word "Quare" today because that would've gotten a lot of people to fail today. Quare would be a good word to start with though.
Good solve, Doug! The xxAxE trap is always a tough one to deal with, especially in hard mode.

STARE gave me three greens and a very good chance at a "two solve" which I felt duty-bound to shoot for. I carefully looked at every possibility and came up with aware, flare, and glare.

Just be glad they didn't use the word "Quare" today because that would've gotten a lot of people to fail today. Quare would be a good word to start with though.
@@pwmiles56 I looked it up and that is the name of a play.
Good thing QUARE is not on the list of possible Wordle answers!
Yikes, never thought of that. Yes, good thing Wordle didn't use it today.
@@Amycakes7 It is a valid word on Wordle.
I also had to settle for a 6, haha. Great work Doug.
