What's the Wordle?!

This was absurd. I went from 100% to 99. I think it's the third time I missed it. What were the percentages today?

 

Another one where I had X_X_X on the second guess only to sweat it out in six.

 

Connections is interesting - clearly the editor isn't a basketball fan.

 

Those are the hardest ones. I have started to sacrifice a guess with the random letters which might fit.

 

That seems to be the best play when in regular mode. Lately I've started playing hard mode where you must use the green letters from your previous attempt. It's a whole new mindset/approach, which has taken way too many days for me to understand. It's starting to click.

 

I’ve been doing this for a while and it does change how you think. Up until recently, I’d been getting between 3 and 4 guesses. This week, I’ve needed 5 and 6. Today, back down to 3 thanks to a fantastic guess rather than strategy other than assuming they were trying to make it difficult.

 

F-OFF Wordle. 800th game no less.

Ouch! Hopefully you weren't on a streak of 799 going into 800th game. I've missed 12 of my 856 games (still 99th percentile, but close).

 

I see what you did there today, Connections

 

I still boofed one, even when I saw what they were doing!!!

 

I almost messed up at the start. I had four picked and was about to hit enter when I realized everyone had the same pattern. Still it took me a second to make sure I saw all the words or I would have biffed two categories.

 

There were at least 3 responses which could have been in multiple categories (including those which weren’t in this game)
