One of my eliminators was the bottom left word!
I then needed another eliminator -SLIMY - and from that I knew top right would be one of two words. I also knew what 2nd block right must be, and 2nd block left also.
3rd block left - well, I knew it must be one of three possible words, with only the 4th letter in doubt. I went for the letter I thought most likely (based on how often it’s popped up in these Octordles before) and it was correct.
3rd block right - I only had three letters. Based on the letter in 4th place, there were few options left for what the final letter must be, and in fact it came down to one (based on the remaining letter that could be used and the ones already in play). That meant only one possible word; I played it, and it was correct.
That gave the necessary information for bottom right.
And that gave me another green position for top left word… I already knew the starting word, and in fact I had all of the letters by now for it, so I played the word, and it was correct.
There weren’t any new words in this, but it was fine.
