Re: Wordle
No I didn’t f up. I’m up for your challenge if you explain how I actually start. I am thinking of Range or a couple others.

Re: Wordle
What's not clear? As long as you identify which game you're guessing on it'll be fine. You can quote the original or just give the game number and guess.

Re: Wordle
By the way, annoyingly scraping this website is blocked so I have to save each page separately but other than that I've pretty much automated it all - there's two current boarders who were at best only posting the good scores in the early days.
There will be scatter plots involved.

Re: Wordle
DEB, I can't tell you exactly which games are hooky, but you are still blatantly cheating on here and still dodging the challenge set for you.

Re: Wordle
I am not cheating and aim to prove you wrong. I just got another three now with the new word which you know. Got stuck on two for 15 minutes and to get to three was a bit of working out but not rocket science.Mick McQuaid wrote: ↑Mon Dec 04, 2023 12:06 pm DEB, I can't tell you exactly which games are hooky, but you are still blatantly cheating on here and still dodging the challenge set for you.

Re: Wordle
What was the first word today, DEB. Shout aloud about it or forever be under a cloud of suspicion. (I can't get flour, spout mayor and a few others into a sentence)
Your second word was bayou.
Your second word was bayou.

Re: Wordle
Mould or pours seems like the most likely second guess, can't narrow down to less than 117 words with absolute certainty though.

Re: Wordle
Bugger, mixed up some of the logic between first and second guesses.
Still, it wasn't worked out - bongo could have been the answer. Young might come to mind more easily but I'm sure you'll agree both were equally likely, so you had a 50% chance of getting it right.
And the day before you had a 1 in 9 chance, the day before that it's hard to say, possible it wad solved rather than guessed but that would involve luckily using words that perform way better than they normally would (scare and knelt does it, I think) . The day before that you changed your starting word to one of the few that would solve it in two, the day before that was a 1 in 6 guess.
Do you understand how although each individual guess is entirely plausible that guessing correctly more often than you should quickly gets completely ridiculous?
Can you clarify if you (despite the evidence to the contrary) think you have been solving the game, or if you think you are just really really lucky?
