[2naSalit]

34. Yep, that was the point...

First words uses most of the vowels, second one gets the rest in there, I use these two words a lot so I was floored when that was the word. Funny, when I enter the first word, I always wonder when that will be the the word.

Oddly, I thought of forty early on while considering possible consonants, but kept mentally thinking of it as a misspelling of forte or an adjective describing a fort -- my brain completely skipped over it as a number. Oy!

Yesterday, one of the posts mentioned a Wordle solution study that suggested solving later in the day might tap into vibes about the solution. Sometimes, I get a sense of letters, but today, letters F O came right to mind. Maybe by reading the possibility, made it a reality, even if just for today.

[TheRickles]

29. Interesting. I hope you signed up for the study, as a few more 2's like this could tilt the balance!

Here’s the link to participate:

30. Good job. You entered Rod Serling's Wordle Zone.

[Ohiya]

31. I've heard that about the NYT crossword puzzles also.

Today, I was another late solver with a two.
