Dottleshead ★ Posted June 21, 2022 Share #3 Posted June 21, 2022 Bugger. I got an extra "Bloat" in there. Otherwise similar to @2Far. I had cloth as my second word. Wordle 367 5/6 🟨🟩⬜⬜⬜ ⬜🟩🟩🟨⬜ ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheer luck determines the difference between a good score and a much poorer one. You solved it when you got to _LOAT. It's like having the most money on Jeopardy and getting Final Jeopardy right, but then having to spin a wheel to see if you are the actual winner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Posted June 21, 2022 Share #11 Posted June 21, 2022 You could try a word like Befog that you know is wrong just to narrow down the options, but that would still take two tries and guessing all the options only took 3, so you don't save much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UglyBob Posted June 21, 2022 Share #19 Posted June 21, 2022 I was a little slow on the uptake today. Guess I shouldn't...you know...gloat. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As @Kirby mentioned, sometimes you have to use a throwaway word to whittle down your letter choices. It’s a strategy in and of itself as to when to employ that approach. I used that the other day (Cacao) when I only got a yellow “O” on the first word. Second word choice (Adieu) didn’t contain an “O”, but ruled in an “A” and ruled out all other vowels. I got it in four, where I could have flailed endlessly trying to move the “O” around the puzzle. Some people got it in three, but a lot more needed 5+ tries. So I think it paid off for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guess between bloat, float and gloat is just that: a total freaking guess. There is no strategy involved. Flip a coin, twice! And some words are much worse than this one, with 5 or 6 possible answers, all pending on a single letter. One person solves it in two and is declared a genius, while someone else is just unlucky and solves it in six. It is a stupid game. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only times I missed solving in 6 was the "guess the missing letter" and ran out of guesses. I think once was FIVE chances to pick just one letter But, still, it is a stress free game and helps fire up some neurons in the morning.

Ralphie ★ Posted June 21, 2022 Author Share #23 Posted June 21, 2022 Once in a while it can be stressful if you get stuck. For some reason that happens a lot more to me on Quordle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One can guess randomly, or they can use a word that will eliminate as many of those choices as possible. Seems like it’s strategy to know when you are better to play it safe versus guess for the win.

In Quordle, if I get 4/5 early, I'll skip it hoping that I pick up the letter elsewhere down the stack. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did that today with the NW box "_REA_" where I still had a LOT of options. Leave it until later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
