The Wordle thread - Let's join the rest of the world and sperg out about a simple word game

[Cassius Crayfish]

When the going is hard, I often guess "impossible" words because I need to exclude certain letters or positions.

This was different to normal. Normally it will say "that's not a likely solution based on my experience". This was a message I haven't see before, it said that the word was not a possible solution based on what I had already guessed - which, in hard mode, should itself not be possible. I think the Bot was drunk.

Very proud of myself
lucky that my second guess was a double letter hit.

Thought about guessing this earlier, but didn't want to waste a guess that would only eliminate one letter if it was wrong.

I KNEW this fucking shit wasn't just a double word, it was a triple word, with the fucking word having three of the same letter, and there were fucking FOUR of them, and I just didn't get the right one. RNG CAN FUCKING BLOW ME FUCKING BLOW ME.

Instead of just brute forcing random words use your first 2-3 guesses to get as many letters as possible of the most used letters in the alphabet on the board. After that you can use your last guesses in a more informed fashion. Don't bother repeating any letters the first 2 or 3 words you guess, just blast as many letters as you can out onto the page.

Its easy to run out of tries when you are wasting 2-3 letter slots each time with a letter you already know.

Hot damn look how smart I am

I understand it's a five letter word so it's "valid." But triple letters, man, just why?

That's exactly what I do. ETAONRISHDLU. You will note that today the wordle had only three letters in it, and only one of them was in the most common 12.

Fuck this Wordle in the fucking ass. Simple word, but I couldn't single out the fucking letters.

Tricky. Definitely not a lot of words that use both a "u" and a "v" in them.

The Bot AGAIN gave me a 0 for my fourth guess even though it eliminated the other possibilities and was a reasonable guess.
