Silly of me not to have gotten this sooner.

Wordle 512 4/6

 

[Rolltydr]

Three, after coming oh so close to talking myself out of it.

Spoiler

I started searching for consonants with MONTH and got an N out of position. Switching to vowels, ADIEU added A, I & E all out of position. I immediately thought INANE, but I spent a minute trying to talk myself out of it because I didn’t want to try 2 N’s this early. However, the only other word that came to mind quickly was ANIME and the I couldn’t go in position 3. INANE it was.

Four today. I really should have had chosen the correct answer on my third try rather than the word I chose. I just wasn't thinking. Spoiled my run of twos and threes. My bad.

Two today.

New opening word today - RAISE instead of ARISE.

After guess 1, INANE was the only word I could think of.

Took me a while to get it in five. I really struggled.

Fun stuff about the major change you made with regard to your opening word. Probably made all the difference in the world. Who knows. If you had used ARISE instead of RAISE, it might have taken you three tries. Great post.

A lucky 3 today.

Four, probably could have gotten it in 3.

Shoot. Sometimes the Spoiler thing doesn't work. I have redone it. Thanks!

 

[tombanjo]

not too hard, would I have paid more attention

Wordle 513 4/6

 

[T_R_Oglodyte]

Three.

[Sandi Bo]

A five for me. As the first 2 tiles turned green, I thought I had it at 2, then 3, etc. I didn't think through all the possibilities and there were more than I thought. Happy Monday wordle friends.

Four

Spoiler

SPURT seemed like a good word to get some consonants. Only found a P. AVOID only added an A and both are out of position. PANEL got the A in correct position and added E & L out of position. I thought the pattern was most likely xAPLE so MAPLE was my only option.

Four. Kinda fun that I had all the letters on three.

I made the switch because I think there are more words that begin with RA than with AR.

 

[LannyPC]

Three.

Because you didn’t do ample thinking in advance.

Thanks, but I am still in a puzzle. I can never decide whether I should start with TRACE or CRATE. So many tough decisions and so little time.

Three today. Given my second word is there any way that I could have blown i? Brain fog from Covid? I am not even that would have done it.

And it didn't matter after all!

There about as many words that start with CR as with TR, so with those two words it probably doesn't make much difference over the long haul.

With RAISE and ARISE there's a difference, because there are quite few more words that have an A in position 2 and in position 1.
