Myrrh probably. I think the Mathers guy is tryna say ppl should use more consonants rather than going for vowels (since you'll get those while going for consonants).

I can't remember my thought process other than that this was the only vowel-less word (not counting Y) I could think of. The only reason I even knew this word existed was because of church.

I had a very similar one. After the third guess I thought "What is it, fucking myrrh?!" and then it happened to be myrrh. I was aghast.

I got curious, just had to go find my screenshot of the day. What a word.

u/Musekouta 3d ago

In 3 guesses is superb.

u/AereonTucker 3d ago

I can't remember how I ended up getting it.

I wanna say I guessed

STARE HOUND CLIMB PRIVY and by then I had 4/5 letters so MYRRH just seemed to make the most sense.

You guys just screenshot your Wordl daily?

Had to find mine, I try to play optimized hard mode like the bot, I think myrrh is actually pretty average that way, and I’m pretty sure being closed to Christmas gave me a clue too

Hey, STEAL was my opener today!

u/JacobAldridge 3d ago

Opening word match!

I used to be STERN, then 1-shot that to my delight.

Changed to LEAST, then 1-shot that also! Went with the anagram STEAL, after confirming it was on the official word list so it a possible answer not just good letter testing.

SLANT CHORE HURRY MYRRH for me that day. I have since stopped playing. 

u/amands_sue 3d ago
