Proud of my 99 skill given my random first guess (which actually garnered 95 skill).

Let’s see everyone’s stats

Notes:

- My previous stats got erased when my phone had an update in March

- The two 1’s explanation: one time I already knew the answer and typed it in just for the hell of it and the other was an April Fool joke

- I’m pretty proud of my 2 score vs. my 5 score

- Since my phone update, I haven’t lost

- I don’t know why it says my current streak is 9?

Dang….over 50 points to spare for a 4 average

0 6’s is impressive 

This game may be tougher.  First time I played I got 0 (some connections are little too opaque).  Today was perfect:

You have 43 6’s which is almost 10% of your scores.  I don’t remember that many 6 scores from you. 

Just below 4.0, though that's not counting the 4(?) misses I've had.

I’ve played a long time and I struggled some early and also haven’t failed since like the 20th time I ever played…..I’ve had a lot of 6’s though. Anytime there is a “rerun” or “slyly” or word like that it just asks for it and then there are a lot of words out there that are easy 3s or 4s unless you have the wrong letters and it gets to be a bad guessing nightmare.

stare, stake, stage, stale, stave, state…many many examples of these types where you might have 4 in the right place after your 2nd guess but have 5 possible still….the killer words usually take me 5, but the bad luck of guessing has been most of my 6’s

Anything over a 4 seems to require some bad luck guessing.

Personally, I'd like to see them expand the dictionary, at least a little, and tip you when a letter you've guessed appears more than once.

1 word left after my 2nd guess.  Up yours Wordle this shouldn't be a guessing game about what's in your dictionary.
