Back to 4.

Spoiler

I can't believe Wordle chose words starting with the same letters twice in 2 days!

Perhaps it's just random.

Three today. Things were pretty much set up with my opening word, but went for a more common word on my second try.

I don’t usually post in this thread, but I had the exact same words as you today, @“Roger”!

With a shake of my shoulders and a tip of my hat, I accept the 5

[Patri]

Four. Interesting word!

[T_R_Oglodyte]

Three

Spoiler

New opening word. As usual, minimum three vowels in my opening word.

Guess 2 was to put the U and G in new positions, while also hunting for common consonants, with S in position 1, it's most common location.

 

[Rolltydr]

Four.

Spoiler

I started with LEAST and got the least I could with an out of position S. I then tried PIOUS and got the U in the 4th position. I want to try the S in the first position and I think of SHRUB. As the tiles are turning, I’m sure I have it. Crap! Last letter isn’t a B, but a G. SHRUG it is!

 

["Roger"]

Four.

I failed that one.

 

[clifffaith]

All six once again.

Spoiler

Who knew sprug was actually a word? And why would I have tried what I thought was a nonsense word before realizing shrug was the answer ?

 

[dsmrp]

3 today. On a whim, I changed my starter word. Got lucky on 2nd guess to get a 3rd letter.

[Patri]

Faith, you win again. Who else would even dare try sprug, let alone think of it?

4 today

 

[T_R_Oglodyte]

Three this morning.

Spoiler

New starter word for me. Three vowels, as usual, and S and T are among the letters I hunt for first.

After guess 2 I figured the word must be TREAx, and TREAD and TREAT were possibilities. I popped in TREAT, and that was it.

 

[tombanjo]

To be oblique, I did not cheat although my prize was 4

Wordle 427 4/6

 

[Rolltydr]

Four, also.

Spoiler

I also used a new starter word this morning, MORAY. It was fairly productive, getting the A in position 4 and an R. I moved the R and checked for U with LUNAR. Nothing. I wanted to check for E and T, so I tried GREAT. It was, leaving me with xREAT. With my remaining letters, it had to be TREAT.

 

["Roger"]

Two today. Obviously that takes luck. In this case my opening word made it easy.

Spoiler

 

[VacationForever]

Five.

[clifffaith]

Four today. Glad to break my string of sixes!

Spoiler

 

[Patri]

Two. I debated using that second t but could think of no other word.

3 today.

 

[T_R_Oglodyte]

Four today. Had to noodle.

Spoiler

After guess 2, I figured A had to be in position 2, because if A was in position 3, the word would be xSAxE, and I couldn't think of any words that fit that pattern.

So I focused on xASTE, with BASTE, CASTE, HASTE, WASTE as possible solutions. I decide on WATCH for guess 3. If the word is WASTE, CASTE, or HASTE, I'll hit on the first letter of the word. And if I miss on W, C, or H, then the solution will be BASTE.

 

[Patri]

Five. I still had the option of paste.

Spoiler

 

[Rolltydr]

Three.

Spoiler

I wanted to go for vowels this morning and started with AUDIO. Only found an out of position A. Next, I decided to try LEAST, which the Wordle bot says is one of the most productive words. It was today. I got EAS and T, but all are out of position. I immediately begin looking at the pattern xASTE. I very briefly debate WASTE or BASTE for my next try and, fortunately, decide on WASTE.

In my hurry to get to 4, I threw away a guess
