Four seems to be my average; took me 5 today. Had the first 3 letters on try #3, but couldn't get the last 2 for a while...

Me too. It's taken me four tries on four out of the last five days.

Wordle 223 3/6





I did not too badly today. Out of 16 days I only have one time where I needed all six tries. I usually fluctuate between 3 and 5.

I just saw online where you can now play Wordle Archive, where you can play every Wordle puzzle so far, excluding the current day. You can play them in date order, or select a specific date, if you happened to miss one previously.

Hey ....I'm not going anywhere tomorrow it looks like(due to snow). I guess I know what I'll be doing -Thanks for the heads up!

Do you ever guess a word you know won’t work just to find more correct letters or letter positions?

 

[sheilafri]

Can the same letter be used twice?

Yes.

Yes! I’ve even guessed nonsense words but wordle doesn’t like that.

Absolutely! Just started playing but catching on. Thanks for the advice.

4 today. Kind of a pretty pattern


(And yes to the question - other times I have used a word that wouldn't work to narrow it down.)

 

[design_mom]

Got it in 3 today. My #1 guess and #2 guess both contain a lot of often-used letters, but they don't have any of the same letters. I decided there were too many options with just the info in Guess #1, so I "wasted" Guess #2 trying to find more letters. Guess #3 was a "real guess" based on the info I'd learned from the first two.

I got lucky this time. That was kind of an "obscure" word as far as letter choices go.

In response to the question, I really try to make every letter and move count and make my choices accordingly, generally using each letter only once initially. Sometimes, I have been left with no good options for making words with my remaining letters (Q, Z,X,F, etc.) and THEN I remember that letters can be used more than once, which helps me solve the puzzle.

I have been doing a few of the archived ones this morning, and I'm finding them SO HARD compared to the ones I have solved since starting a couple of weeks ago.

Unfortunately last night it took me all my 6 tries... and I had to cheat to do that.
