Wordle thread

Well this was possibly my worst games day ever lol. I blame basketball.

I at least got the Wordle but threw all strategy out the window and just blind guessed.

Wordle 1,371 6/6

For Connections I got the first group and then sat staring at it until I finally just gave up and clicked most anything.

Connections

I did do pretty well on Strands though
Strands #383
โ€œOde to the aubergineโ€
๐Ÿ”ต๐Ÿ”ต๐Ÿ”ต๐ŸŸก
๐Ÿ”ต

I thought I would try to redeem myself and do the Mini but that ended up taking 5+ minutes because of one letter.

I am hoping for better results from the ballgame today.

And once again, after my third word, the Wordlebotโ€™s commentary was โ€œExcellent choice โ€” XXXXX would have been one of my top picks in this situation. And youโ€™ve narrowed it down to one possible solution. You should solve the puzzle on your next turn.โ€

And after my fourth word itโ€™s response was, โ€œThere was only one possible solution left โ€” and this wasnโ€™t it. (XXXXX is a valid guess, but itโ€™s unlikely to be a solution based on what Iโ€™ve learned from playing Wordle.) But thereโ€™s still only one solution remaining. You should solve the puzzle on your next turn.โ€

I donโ€™t understand how a word can be a โ€œvalid guessโ€ yet be an โ€œunlikely solution.โ€ All valid five-letter words are potential solutions, right? There are various listed criteria (no proper nouns, no plurals, etc) so if a five-letter words meets those criteria how can it be omitted as a โ€œpossible solution.โ€ This has happened to me multiple times. I donโ€™t mind my guess being incorrect, but the Wordlebotโ€™s commentary is wrong. Any โ€œvalid guessโ€ is by definition a possible solution, right?

I donโ€™t think this is right. In the original game, Mrs Waddell pre approved a list of words she knew. I think thereโ€™s a master list out there.
