LSN's change of starting word to the proven optimal is noted. It's slight advantage is in the increased flexibility of the second guess by saving a vowel. Great for an algorithm running through the allowed list of words, not so great otherwise.

I assume everyone has just the one starting word that they use each day and which remains largely unchanged - other than when they learn of a new strategy. Does anyone here change their starting word each day depending on how they feel?

Three actually, scale, scaly, scald. Scala is also an allowed entry.

Human beats bot today, should be 3's all round.
