I got lucky. I'm curious what other people's opening word is? I always use slate.

I've only recently started playing Connections, it's such a brain fuck. That China woman that makes them has such an incredibly devious mind.

I have mostly used ATONE.

I may switch to SLATE or the Wordlebot's preferred TRACE because I'm mad at ATONE after a couple days ago.

Been pondering a switch to trace as well but believe it or not I dislike change.

I'm curious what other people's opening word is? I always use slate.

I always use TRUMP because it mostly eliminates 5 consonants (Q being the 5th if U isn't a hit) and I am convinced consonant elimination is better than finding vowels, I have considered switching to STUMP since S is more common but if word of the day ever is trump it'll be slightly amusing to me.

I don't see the point in hitting a AE because there's too many words that could be and on hard mode it limits the amount of possibilities you can eliminate with subsequent guesses.

I switch up my starting word every once and a while. I've used ATONE, ADIEU, and STORE.

I use to use audio, since it was 4 vowels, until it was actually the word of the day. My one and only oneshot so far.

Now i use either aurei or adieu.

I'm curious what other people's opening word is? I always use slate.

I usually like to start with "ADIEU" as it covers a lot of potential vowels. Doesn't always work in my favor but when I'm set when it does!

I used IRATE for a long time but eventually switched to SALET — a couple weeks before IRATE was the word of the day. Ahahahahahaha…

I've acknowledged my AI overlord and switched to TRACE despite my frequentist bias.

Thanks. Started playing Connections last month when had pneumonia and a lot of free time. I get irrationally angry at times with it but that's the fun I suppose. Like in the puzzle shown in your example I immediately jumped on credit card names and loss a turn. Once you factor into your mind the devious nature of the celestial Puzzle maker one can begin to play the game. Or at least my dumbasss is trying to.
