Wordle #1043 April 27: 4/6 par

⬜⬜🟨⬜🟨 STARE /BBYBY
⬜🟨🟨🟨⬜ CAGEY / BYYYB
⬜🟨⬜🟩🟨 DEBAG / BYBGY
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 GLEAM / Correct

With G = 1, Y = ½, & B = 0, I scored 1, 1½, 2, and 5.

I spent more than ten minutes solving this one, mostly on turn three.

On turn three I initially thought of GLEAN but found it is a past answer. Somehow, GLEAM never occurred to me :-(

I played DEBAG never thinking it would be the solution (WAY too British), but rather to locate where the A, G, and E belong.

My streak is at a personal best of 165.
