Some days things fall into place quickly.  Today, Guess #1 yielded only the O (out of position) which The Bot (again) described as “unlucky”.  Guess #2 provided M (in position) & R (out of position) — and O didn’t match as Letter 2 either.  Since had go in as Letter 4 or 5, I thought I’d look for a word with the pattern, M—RO.  MICRO was the first thing that came to mind (and, I found out later, the only remaining solution), so I quickly played it and watched all the letters turn green.  I tied The Bot but bested to the (current) NYT avg (3 vs. 3.9).  Weekend going well so far.

Take care and stay safe.
