Wordle

November 25, 2024 -

WordleSo I've been playing Wordle pretty regularly since just before the New York Times bought it. It's just become a regular thing I normally do just after waking up as I'm getting ready for work. Sometimes I put in a guess or two and then think about it as I'm showering in the morning.

I hit 1000 games played over the weekend and thought it would be a good time to screenshot the thing and share. I'm just glad I've got more threes than fives and more twos than sixes. Although I've been getting a lot of sixes recently.

When I first started, I used to always use TEARS as my starting word, but then I saw a friend using STARE, and decided that while it's the same letters, the positioning is better, so now I go with STARE more often than not. I do sometimes use ADIEU to switch it up and get more vowels out. If I get zero hits on STARE, my go-to is always CLOUD.
