Is your seed word ALERT? If so, I get the five remaining words: BALER PALER RELAX RELAY RENAL. How did you select the correct answer? Any of the first four words would have given the same odds.

Luck … and being correctly incorrect (it was late and I failed to recognize that BALER and PALER would also differentiate RENAL, which left RELAX and RELAY as equivalent best options).

In the end a 1 in 5 is not that improbable.

I do it, but I have a hard time using a second word that I know is incorrect. Getting it in two feels so good.

Fun fact: Scoredle would have had the same second guess as I had (but a different first) and solved in 4.

This word was not in the list I have been using historically for the first time. I got it in 2 as the only matching word from the full list of 14855 words by virtue of all the ones from my historical list being either excluded or already used (APTLY and ATOLL) …

Kaching! Second two-twos-in-a-row in less than a week. (1294-1295, 1298-1299)

This one was definitely luck. I picked one of two guaranteed filters among four remaining possibilities.

Spoiler

I had to go straight to the extended list for this one and pick a likely candidate that is not outré, a plural or a third person verb.

Forgot to post yesterday.
