Wordle, Quordle, Octordle starting words?

[WhiteWhiteWhite]

Some clever Mumsnetter shared 4 words earlier this year that were brilliant starters!

1. Lunch?
2. ?
3. ?
4. Gymps

I've been ill & it's driving me nuts that I now can't remember the first 3 words clearly.

Any idea?

STARE/TEARS
then GHOUL

I use RAISE, SAUCE, RATIO, ROGUE.

Corny
fight
juked
psalm

Stare, pound, flick for me

I quite often use ADORE and MUSIC as my first two words.

Rates, pinch, mould - 15 most commonly used letters of the alphabet in 3 words.

I use adieu chomp tryst.

I stopped doing Octordle and Sedecordle specifically because I had a set of 4 words that covered 20 different letters. When I had done that, it was almost impossible to fail, which made it actually not that much fun.

I find Wordle, Dordle and Quordle more of a challenge because driving out those letters is a much more dangerous tactic.

Anyway, if anyone is interested, these are the words:

FIGHT
WACKY
BLOND
SUPER

Audio
Styme
Prick, Pluck, Plank,
depending on results of first two.

I use:

Wordle: ARISE

Quordle: FAIRY SPOUT WENCH

Octordle: WEARY THING DUMPS BLOCK

Train
Close
Pudgy

You would not waterboard this out of me IRL, but since my main competition is DH and I'm very sure he's not on MN, my starting word is THURL

It's brilliant for ruling out a lot of letter combinations, and I often manage 3 or fewer guesses

Louse then Train
Or
Arise then Touch
Worgle - Arisen then Plough

I'm liking the different tactics here everyone!

I'd share mine if I could remember those two damn words!!!

I do LEAST then PROUD then CHINK

On Wordle I use raise then touch.

Another vote for state then found if no matches

Typo - sorry - meant stare

I tried the new tack today on Wordle. I normally start with vowel-heavy words but today I started with consonant-heavy words. I got it in three!

There again, I got it in three yesterday, too, because that was a vowel-heavy answer. I probably shouldn't try to extrapolate from only two days' example.
