The problem with sacrificing a go or two though is that you're very unlikely to complete Wordle in 3 - which is always my aim when I start!
We have a small group that shares results. It's obvious that one of the group uses 'easy' mode as you can see that they are not always using 'correct'...
There does seem to have been an issue with switch over to the NYT. Mine and my wife's words were different. She did hers a bit earlier than me and looks like she picked up yesterday's word again ... or something like that!!!
