My metagame is guessing my friend's guesses.

I always lead with STOAE so people don't have issues guessing my first one at least. I also tend to follow with UNLID if STOAE has zero or one hits.

ARTSY MODEL CHUNK here. It's not optimal, but it is pleasing to me in an aesthetic sense.

I like the idea of worldle But I hate that any guesses have to be words in its dictionary. As someone who was never really a fan of crosswords, the need to find a real word that fits 5 letters every time severely limits how I can enjoy it.

Seems like you'd be more interested in Master Mind.

Here is an implementation from the great Simon Tatham's Portable Puzzle Collection:

This is your regular reminder that today's word, and all the upcoming ones, are located in the Wordle minified JS.

Shameless plug, but I built a site to do this the other way around.

Enter a 5 letter word and it'll tell you the next the it will be the wordle solution.

Yes, we know. We can also easily "solve" a crossword puzzle by waiting a day and just copying down the published answers. People are having fun solving puzzles in clever ways. This post is an exceptionally clever way of solving a puzzle in an unexpected way, using forensic data analysis, which is itself something of interest to a lot of us.

I know that, I'm just pointing out another clever way to solve today's puzzle :)

I vary up my starting words to keep things interesting.

Common ones for me are: MEATY, BISON, CHUMP, GROUP

From yesterday's post on the state of the art, I tried SALET, but still took me 4 tries to get today's wordle.

I turned on hard mode, and it's really forced me to change how I play. You can only really have one "starting word" unless you match zero letters.
