After a few practices to get me out of hard-mode-wordle mode I have found that spending the first 4 guesses on an exhaustive search of letters (picking words with letters in common positions) seems to be universally the best opening. Pursuing individual words before 3 guesses is not optimal.

I see you played the same meta-game that I did. It took me a few tries, but I ended up with: WHISK, FRONT, GLADE, BUMPY. Probably not in the spirit of the game, but once you have 20 distinct letters, it is normally quite easy to find the solution.

Mine are SHIRT, WOMEN, BLACK, PUDGY. I like that order as it hits most of the high-frequency letters up front to enable the odd early snipe.

Well if we're sharing mine are: SPINE, WORLD, THUMB, and JACKY.

Yes? Per the "History of Quordle": https://www.quordle.com/#?overlay=tutorial > It all started on January 29, 2022 when I saw an article mentioning Dordle by Guilherme S. Töws and we all started playing it as a group. It was a blast to play something more difficult than Wordle

Ahhh. So 2 words instead of 4. You're going to be really disappointed by Octordle and Septurdle, then.

Octordle directly stole Dordle's code, so, yeah, not a fan.
