On Playing Wordle . . .

[sgt1372]

Just got back home and it'll take some time to update the
info for the past 2 puzzles but here's the info for today.

01/26/2023: Wordle 586 4/6






12 choices after 2 and still 4 after 3.
Fortunately, I didn't think of the other 3.

Current NYT Average: 4.5
WordleBot's Score: 5

It's a tough puzzle when the NYT Average rises to 4.5+
& when WordleBot scores a 5!

Wordle 586 5/6*

12 choices after 2 and still 4 after 3.
Fortunately, I didn't think of the other 3.

As you can see I thought of at least two LOL. Actually if I had to guess I ruled out your fourth possibility with my second guess.

Feel like I pulled this one out of the hat, but I was pretty limited on choices by the 4th guess.

Updates for 1/24-1/25:

01/24/2023: Wordle 584 4/6 COUNT

12 choices after 2 and only 1 after 3.

Final NYT Average: 3.6
WordleBot's Score: 2

WordleBot "guessed" in 2 just with its normal start word SLATE w/the T only in yellow.
I don't buy it; very hard to believe.
This is why I don't trust the reported WordleBot scores.

01/25/2023: Wordle 585 3/6 MAIZE

Decided to go for it in 2 because I got 3 letters, 1 in green, on the 1st try.
Chose NAIVE for the 2nd guess which left 2. Thought of both: RAISE & MAIZE.
MAIZE was the less common word and was it the right choice.

Final NYT Average: 4.4
WordleBot's Score: 3

No idea why I didn't think of the 4th word before the 3rd

I hate days like this so much - too many options.

Wordle 588 3/6*





Should have been a two-guess day, but it was very early in the morning and I went with the first word I thought of instead of thinking to see if I could follow my normal rule for the second guess.
