Given that it's a multiple choice answer day -- i.e., BATCH, CATCH, HATCH, LATCH, MATCH, PATCH, RATCH, WATCH.

⬛⬛🟨🟨⬛ SLATE
⬛🟩⬛🟩🟩 RANCH (Now it must end with ATCH)
⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛ PLUMB (Eliminated possible answers)
⬛🟩🟩🟩🟩 WATCH (Multiple choice time)

If CHOWS didn't work at identifying C as the first letter, I think your only possible answer would've been HATCH at #6.

Good choice of elimination words!

Today made me wish that I'd used CRANE as my starter word, which I've frequently used in the past, since it starts with C!

Got real lucky with CATCH as I was looking at 6 possibles with 4 guesses left. This could have easily been my third whiff this month.

Sometimes, we need a little luck. I was at 5, and stuck between hatch and catch, so I cheated. Thank you for the spoiler

🟩⬜⬜🟨⬜ CLEAN
🟨🟩⬜⬜⬜ HARDY
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 CATCH

According to Wordlebot, there was only one solution after Hardy--and no other Wordlers faced the same scenario!

I don't think I've ever used CLEAN as a starter word. Just wanted to try something different with common letters.
