What a stupid word.

Let's see if we can get back on it without making it feel like so much work...
Wordle 582 3/6

My second guess today was a word that I knew wouldn’t be the answer, but I was fishing for letters. Almost couldn’t have worked out better. We’ll chalk today up to luck over skill.

These words are getting dumber. I might be done with this game.

Tough word today -- either you got it quick or you struggled with it.
Don't think the NYT average reflects how difficult it was.

01/22/2023: Wordle 582 3/6





73 choices after 1 and only 1 after 2 but I had to try every letter on the keyboard
to find the "right" missing letter and I still didn't trust the choice . . .

Current NYT Average: 4.3
WordleBot's Score: 4

01/21/2023: Wordle 4/6 BLURB

2 choices after 2 and 1 after 3. CHURN or BLURB? Both uncommon words . . .

Final NYT Average: 4.1
WordleBot's Score: 4

Note: Over the past week or so, it seems that the Wordle Editor is deliberately choosing odd/obscure/seldom
used words, like: PIXIE, GRIMY, KOALA, SPIRE, FROCK, MUCKY and BLURB, plus today's word, as well.

Not words you'd use in "normal" conversation.
Something to keep in mind when trying to solve the puzzles from now on.

Agreed. Over the past little while you can definitely see the hand in the game. Doesn't feel as natural lately, but thankfully still fun.

I still can't get over how many people eagled "spire" from the other day. What kind of witchery was that?

Whew!

I have to stick with it, no matter how dumb and contrived the word list. I'm a couple weeks away from a solid year of puzzle solving.
