    I feel like the strategy of not using letters you already know always makes your attempts higher because you’re not pinpointing locations of letters, which is valuable in figuring out the word.

    Tough one for me today. 5/6. Didn’t realize I could use a letter twice at first until I was completely stumped and figured out I had to. Leading vowel def caused me some problems

    Abbey took me 5 shots but not much time.
