I didn’t even know what Wordle was until my Mississippi road trip last weekend, but it’s pretty cool.

I pretty well stole my buddy’s strategy of using route and snail as the first two words. That covers all vowels along with 5 common consonants.

10/10. 2 on try 3, 6 on try 4, 2 on try 5.

Rupee and ahead tripped me up a bit and took 5 tries
 
I use a different word each morning...I have a 58 day streak going

1 in 1 guess, 3 in 2, 9 in 3...etc
 
I have a system that typically lets me get it by 3 or 4.

Am I the only one that thinks the Hard (6 letter) version is much easier than the Easy (4 letter) version? The Easy version, having the same amount of chances (6), but with 4 letters, means it takes more entries to eliminate more letters. I am at 100% on the 6 letter, but at like 93% on the 4 letter. Whatever.

I’ve played the 5 letter version. I want to get it 4. My way, you’re kinda forfeiting the first two tries to get letters

Didn't get "rupee".

I expect them to speak American.

I had the r u and double e. Through 4 goes. The route as first word strategy probably saved me on that one
 
I have been opening with "ideal". I'm doing well so far but wasn't serious the first couple of weeks playing. And I lost one last week where several words had the same last 3 letters and I had too many combinations of first two letters left to try. I chose poorly.

I buckled down this weekend to really try to keep it at no more than 3 guesses and have done so 3 straight days. I got lucky today.

I’m an idiot. I missed sweet this morning. Guessed skeet and sheet then ran out of guesses
