Wordle in a Minute - 10th November 2023

Underground, overground, Wordling free ... the Wordles of Wimbledon Common are we ...

Mark’s opening word sequence in full:

AGENT BAKER CLERK DIVER ENVOY FIXER GUARD JUDGE MODEL NURSE OILER

Theme: 5-letter professions, in alphabetical order

PILOT is the obvious guess for tomorrow’s word, in my opinion

[Houndzable]

Brilliant. As always. Thanks for the entertainment

[derekpolley]

Always start with LEAST . Thought I had a one, but got a two. happy!!

[archivist]

Not sure about Oiler, but I love Euler's Identity!

[jvx]

I got this in 3, I don't know how, I have the flu and pretty sure I had a fever at the time.
Even your puns are brilliant, Mark, I laughed out loud. Might be the fever making me say this, but you're adorable. (I always think so, but usually don't say it.)
Well done, and thanks for the short! XO

[Waniou]

Lucky first word choice for me with SHAVE (So YYGBY) and LEASH was really the only option, giving me my third win in 2.

[blcmd]

I didn’t expect Mark to try an “O” profession, so I guess I’ll be repeating PILOT as the starting word.

[johndaily]

Back when I optimized for common letters with my first guess I often used leash. But, alas, of course, no longer.

[keyboard_toucher]

A ship that transports petroleum is an oiler, as is a person whose job it is keep machinery oiled.

[davidkomai]

My starting word was LEAST. I nearly freaked out thinking I was about to get it in one finally.

[zenith]

I usually start with "STEAL" or "LEAST". On this day I chose "STEAL". I don't remember my second guess, but I stumbled and got it in 3 instead of a feasible 2

[marilyngardner]

NURSE > LEAST > LEASH for me. I've been one day behind Mark all this time, but I expected him to skip O, so I started with PILOT on November 11 and now may be caught up.

[ZorlockDarksoul]

CHAOS -> FLASH -> LEASH

I've had a lot of fours recently, so it's nice to finally get a three again.

[emilywilliams]

Absolutely love your reactions, Mark. And thanks for mentioning the streak total - it doesn’t show anymore since NYT changed the layout of the stats page.

[Tringard]

Nurse putting the S 2nd to last got me a lucky 2 on this one

[blacxthornE]

this should have been a 2 for me but for some reason after AEONS my first guess for what I figured would be _EAS_ was PEASY. I don't know why I don't see the more obvious words first.

[EvanSawyer]

Stare > Leash

Opening word paid off twice this week.

[thomascooke]

Least-lease-leash. One letter off in first guess, took 3 though

[justarandomdood]

Wonder if we'll ever see Mark's WordleBot score and stuff :P

[shirleyhenderson]

SuitE->LEASH⭐🌟
Wordle in about a minute! This lucky guess more than makes up for yesterday's stressful 6.
