So you're saying that my lifestyle choices are impacting my wordle score? Great, more stuff to worry about. 

I considered the guess all different words idea and tried it with wordle unlimited. But even using the common letters I was having trouble narrowing down the choices and then didn't have enough chances left to try different locations.  I'm still mostly a 4 though, seems to be the norm.

I don't have the game set to hard mode (I do have it set to "dark" mode though) but I always use letters that I've found to be correct anyhow (except yesterday, I forgot one by accident), so I essentially play in hard mode anyhow.  I never use the same start word either but I try to suss out 2 or 3 vowels and/or the most common consonants with it.  Deliberately avoiding "correct" letters in subsequent guesses doesn't seem efficient or logical to me - but that's just me I guess.

Your Wordle strategy says a lot about how you see the world

January 24, 2022 • It did not take long for me to conclude that Wordle is a metaphor for life, meaning that you can learn a lot about different ways to see the world from different ways to play Wordle.

Ugh - forgot to use a correct letter on the third guess...  Didn't realize how many words start with those 3 letters...of course the least-likely word was correct.
