BLUNT

🧩 How the Solve Unfolded

You opened with POUTY to probe key vowels/consonants and snagged a displaced U.

TRUNK snapped things into place, confirming U in position and turning N and T green.

STUNT tightened the net around the ending, exposing the U-N-T anchor.

HAUNT validated the vowel layout while the lead letter stayed elusive.

BLUNT finished it clean — all five greens.

Today’s puzzle rewarded disciplined pruning. POUTY set the stage, and TRUNK plus STUNT locked the back end with U-N-T. From there, the start of the word was the only real mystery. HAUNT confirmed the structure without stealing the win. BLUNT landed the clean five-green finish. Have a Wonderful Wednesday. On to tomorrow!
