Wordle 217 5/6

⬛⬛⬛🟨🟨
⬛⬛⬛⬛🟩
⬛⬛🟨⬛🟩
🟨⬛⬛🟨🟩
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

My guesses and thought process below

Spoiler

AUREI to open checking for vowels
STOKE testing the ST as common consonants, plus the last vowel (unlikely with two already in the bag) and the position of the E which was quite likely.
BEIGE testing for a second E and taking a punt on B & G while looking for the I position.
IMINE testing for a second I and its position as well as M & N.
Now I know my
first, third and fourth could be N and long list of what it isn't
Second is I, the only position not tested.
Fifth is E, known for a while.

The I & N could be discrete but if not, IN feels more likely than NI so time for a guess with two new letters.
WINCE

I've decided to pursue 'pure' wordle which means using the correct word from the previous puzzle as the starting word

Who's with me ? We can smugly look down on everyone else with their vowel strewn playing the percentage words

Also it's like Radcliffe and maconies' 'the chain'

chose wrong from the two options left again. wife got it in two which im incredulous at as she only got 1 correct letter and one in wrong place from her first word! at the moment shes better luckier at it than me.

My guesses and thought process below

well theres 2 words i never knew existed, learn something new every day......

ooh i like that. altho itll be a hard ask typing in ABBEY say from the other day knowing that youre already limiting your chances of success with a double letter and a Y.

Took some pondering this morning.

Yep that final guess took me a good 5 mins, with the letters already discarded I thought it was going to be something much more obscure.

I also start with a random word as someone else above, no technique or "magic" words just guesswork, but I do like the idea of "pure wordle" but I have forgotten the previous days word by the time I play again, and don't think I can be bothered noting it down..

Unremarkable on the face of it, but this was pursuing ideologically pure* worldle (see above) so is actually one of the greatest achievements of mankind and drops on all your efforts from a great height
