Joining the failed list. I nearly went for the correct answer after 2 goes, but kept talking myself out of it. Stupid game indeed!

It seems that the word selections are now frequently having a very particular and challenging characteristic.

This is one of those where eliminating letters with the first couple of words comes in really handy so I wasn't in the same position as many where you're guessing the remaining letter and there are multiple options. I really only had two choices for guess 4. Usually it goes the other way, so I'm pleased to have knocked in a par.

Streak now 124, average 4.22. There have been a few 6s recently where the final guess was a hail mary and could have been a fail - I think the next fail will be the end of my Wordle career!

Some seem to work it out against the odds pretty well every time too. There were so many options available today other than the least obvious once you had three letters or in my case four in the right place FFS, can't be too specific or I'll be giving clues to anyone who hasn't done today's Wordle.

Yep, they’re difficult.

Don't worry, nobody reads this thread before playing

I got today's by ignoring my greens and putting in a word with the letters that could cover most possibilities. I did it in German today too - it's the only way when there are greens with multiple choices for the last letter

That’s cheating

Anyone not on hard mode is cheating imo

Consider your card marked on all future scores

It depends what letter you were missing though. I had a 50/50 after guess 2 and went for the more obvious option.

 

[Uh_huh_him]

Whenever today's pattern turn up I know I'm going to struggle.
So many options.

Anyone hitting 3 today, must have had an inspired 2nd guess

Strewth that was close. Good drive, great long iron, then 4 putts for a double bogey 6
I was one letter away from retiring. Just as well I'm a carpenter.

I would say you had seven possibilities for the first letter and could only have eliminated three by the time you got to go three, if you'd used up those possibilities already?

I could be wrong of course, I am not very good at this, although I really enjoy doing it every morning!

I'll post my thoughts on what I THINK you had tomorrow after everyone has had a go today!

Tag me tomorrow and I'll reveal all Pretty sure it was a 50/50.

I'm not in the league table these days but today was my first ever fail after more than 250 games. Gutted. Even sacrifice word didn't save me. At least the 'pressure' is off now!

Tag me tomorrow and I'll reveal all Pretty sure it was a 50/50.

I went:

TRACE (3 yellows)
RARER (putting the vowels in the most likely position and trying to find out where the R was)

Then it was PARER or DARER, and the former seemed more likely. Don't think there was another option.
