Anyone playing WORDLE & similar games?

I’m not sure what the best strategy for this might be, but wouldn’t choosing a word with the most vowels, such as adieu or Kauai, always be the best way to start?

Hah, my strategy is to think of a 5-letter word.

Any 5-letter word.

Ha! Got today’s word in three tries (after 20 minutes of thinking about it). Maybe I’ve finally found a game I’m halfway competent at.

Then again, spending 20 minutes on a lucky guess probably isn’t an indication of anything other than my propensity to waste time when I should be working. :frowning_face:

Warning, solution hidden below.

I don’t think any Wordle repeats letters. But it looks like you are playing a wordle clone, so it is hard to tell.

Yeah, that’s it. And I had thought of that, but sort of dismissed it. It is indeed the first instance I’ve seen of a repeated letter, and also the least “ordinary” word I’ve encountered, although that may just be a matter of perception. Now I know.

I don’t know whether the unlimited one is a knock off, but I do know it, and the daily one, both look a little different in different browsers.

Thanks B. On to the next time waster…
