    Another failure here! However, I'm in Lisbon rather than Blackpool, so I can't say I'm particularly upset.

    Got it on the 6th guess. As above didn’t think I could make a word with what I had left then I remembered Americans can’t spell properly.

    Unfortunately I had the middle letter left to find after 3, so there were a lot of possibilities. To be honest the actual answer wasn't even on my radar.

    I’d got 1 and 3 to find, but I’d already eliminated practically everything else it could have been to fill the two spaces.

    One of the reasons I failed was I didn't think about the American spelling but even with my last guess I could think of 3 possible correctly spelled words so I had no chance I guess

    I got it on the 6th go. Just had the middle letter to get on the 4th go, was a bit flummoxed when I got to 6th go as I couldn't think of a word it could be with the letters I had left, until I remembered it was a NYT Wordle!

    Got it in 5…total guess, I ended up putting random words in with the letters I’d got left

    5 as well, never used the word but the last letter was the only one that would fit and I had to look up what it meant after I'd guessed it.

    Assumed it was mid 20th century archaic.

    I don't do wordle or usually read this thread but did today for some reason and was intrigued. It's a word I know. In fact, if you're attempting to make your hair bigger than it is, say you're in a hair metal band, I wouldn't know a different word to use.

    Hang on, just need to ***** up my hair.
