Anyone playing wordle?

Tough one for me today. Five, and I had to work to narrow down the possibilities.

Spoiler

Guess 2 was checking the remaining vowels, and knocking out two common consonants. Guess 3 was verifying the position of the U and checking for more consonants.

After guess 3 it seemed that the options were MUDDY and MUMMY.

Hey, our last 3 are the same.

Took me all six, after getting no letters at all in my first two words.

Three. I used a Faith-type of opening word.

Spoiler

I saw MIAOU listed somewhere as a Wordle starting word. Had no idea what that word might be, but looking it up, apparently it is French for meow. This isn't the first time I've seen where Wordle will allow a non-English word as a guess.

Four for me today.

I thought at 2am I might be first today as I wind down from a late flight home and “suffer” the full force and favor of cats who missed me, but two not only beat me to it, they beat me in solving the puzzle. Five for me this early Monday morning.

Three. Happy.

[Rolltydr]

Four.

Spoiler

I hit all the vowels with my first two words. CURIO found a U and MEATY found an A & T with all of them out of position. Making a quick pass through my keyboard, I saw VAULT and tried it, successfully getting all letters in place except the first letter. F was the only fit, so FAULT, despite it’s negative connotation, was the solution.

Could have been 4 but turned into a 5.

 

[tombanjo]

I can see clearly now, the wordle's done, I could see 4 solving it today.

Five for me. I had trouble getting the correct first letter.

Spoiler

I tried GRAPH as mr starter and found a G. From there, I wanted to check for vowels and I was thinking the word might end in ING, so I was a priority. I tried LOUIE, which eliminated the ING track. It did get the O in correct position. I started looking at xOGxx and came up with SOGGY, DOGGY, and, finally, FOGGY. Fortunately, there were no more options.

 

[clifffaith]

Went all the way to six before getting it.

Six for me. Picked all wrong words when I was hunting consonants. Three consonant words in a row, none of which yielded a hit. By the time I got to guess 6 there was only option remaining.

That's better than getting to 6 and there are still a few possibilities.

Time to ignore the law of averages, and show off my lucky three
