Wordle today

Do I need to change my starter word now? Probably not as it has helped me to achieve my 99% over 527 days.

[Donnywolf]

Yes .... Cos you can't get a 1 again lol. Adieu is a beauty that hasn't been up yet


BUT

Try STARE as you are on form and that hasn't been out yet and we'll both benefit 

[Donnywolf]

Early appointment , don't want delay , can't leave without solving. Ah great.

So going into guess 5 left me 2 strong potential words. I felt doomed and tried to pick the one that could benefit me most if it was wrong !

I picked it and wrong but what I failed to spot was both words had a common letter so neither could be right.

I still had 3 viable words left but started my elimination trial all over again and after a further 15 mins "ding" I found a very strong word , entered it and the first letter of guess 5 lit up green and I knew

Sorry about War and Peace

Yesterday I had Biddy Bivvy and Ninny and all qualified as words

I had Jiffy and Fizzy to choose for guess 5 thinking it would be one of them . Luckily having an F in each wiped them both out (after I chose Jiffy)

Made me go right back to my elimination process and when I got to WINDY I knew I was home

Did 'JIZZY' not come into your thoughts?

DONUT was one I listed under possible American spellings that had not been "used"

[Mike_F]

An all green 4 but I must admit I was a bit worried when I got the last two letters on my first guess as it could have been one of hundreds of words.

A Very close call today with a nervous 6.
Like Mike had the last two letters so could have been anything.
Luckily got 4 greens on Row 4 but there was a slight possibility that my last guess was wrong. Luckily it wasn't.
