Wordle 1107

🟨⬛️⬛️⬛️⬛️ DREAM
⬛️⬛️⬛️🟨🟨 CLOUD
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 BUDDY

Time: 4-5 minutes

I see it but I don’t believe it. I spent most of my time on my third guess. There must have been other words that fit but BUDDY was the first one that occurred to me.

Games played: 859
Winning streak: 418

That’s it for June. Here are some stats. I averaged 3.73 guesses per game in June which isn’t a record for me but it is considerably lower than my over all average of 4.03 guesses per game. 

I started the month with a 0Y game and ended it with a 5G game for the second time. I also started Jun 2023 with a 0Y game and ended it with 5G game. In Jun 2023 the first and last games both took me 4 guesses to complete. This time around the first one took me 5 guesses and the last one took me 3 guesses to complete.

I finished 15 games in 3 guesses and 6 games in 4 guesses. The first is a calendar month record high and the second is a calendar month record low for me. My previous high mark for number of games finished in 3 guesses in a calendar month was 14 games. My previous low mark for number of games finished in 4 guesses in a calendar month was 8 games.

This is just the third time that I have finished more games in 3 guesses than I have in 4 guesses in a calendar month. The last time (Mar 2024) this happened I finished 4 more games in 3 guesses than I did in 4 games. The time before that (Oct 2022) I finished 5 more games in 3 guesses than I did in 4 guesses. This time I finished 9 more games in 3 guesses than I did in 4 guesses.

I started 9 games in Jun with 0.1.4. This is the first time since Oct 2023 that I have started fewer than 10 games with 0.1.4 in a calendar month.

I started 6 games this month with 0.1.4 that I finished in 3 guesses. This is the first time that I have started 6 games with 0.1.4 that I finished in 3 guesses in a calendar month.

This is my fourth 5G game this month. I finished all of my 5G games this month in 3 guesses. This is the first time that I have finished four 5G games in a calendar month in 3 guesses. 

I started 75 percent (3/4) of my 5G games this month with 0.1.4. This is the third time I have started three 5G games in a calendar month with 0.1.4. I finished all three of the 5G games that I started this month with 0.1.4 in 3 guesses. This is the first time that I have had three 5G games in a calendar month that I started with 0.1.4 and finished in 3 guesses.

⬛️⬛️🟨🟨⬛️ MORAY
⬛️🟨⬛️🟨🟨 PALER
🟨🟩🟨⬛️⬛️ REACH
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 ZEBRA

Time: 3-4 minutes

I probably spent a couple minutes on my fourth guess. There might have been other possible answers but ZEBRA was the first one I thought of after my third guess.

This game ends my streak of games without finishing a game in 4 guesses. It lasted for 11 games. I doubt I will be breaking that record any time soon.

I knew that there were still a lot of possible answers after my second guess. I got lucky with my third guess but not quite so lucky with my fourth guess. I’m pretty sure that there was only one possible answer after my fourth guess.

This is the 14th time this month that I have finished a game in 3 guesses. This is the second time that I have finished 14 games in 3 guesses within a calendar month. The other time this happened was in Oct 2022.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 1.0.4 and finished it in 3 guesses. This is the first time this year that I have started a game with 1.0.4 and finished it in 3 guesses. I have finished 25 percent (24/96) of the games I have started with 1.0.4 in 3 guesses.

I have started fewer games with 1.0.4 that I finished in 3 guesses during my current winning streak (5/415 games) than I did during my third winning streak (7/95 games) and eighth winning streak (8/213 games).

Time: 2-3 minutes

I’m not sure if KNEAD was the only possible answer after my second guess but it was the only one that occurred to me.

This is the third time this month that I have started a game with 1.2.2. This is the first time that I have started 3 games in a calendar month with 1.2.2. 

This is the second time this month that I have started a game with 1.2.2 and finished it in 3 guesses. This is the fourth time that I have started 2 games with 1.2.2 and finished them in 3 guesses in a calendar month.

⬛️🟩⬛️⬛️🟩 FOAMY
⬛️🟩⬛️⬛️🟩 POUTY
⬛️🟩⬛️🟨🟩 WORDY
🟩🟩⬛️⬛️🟩 DODGY
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 DOLLY

Time: 9 minutes

I could see a number of possibilities after my third guess. DOLLY was one of them but it wasn’t the first one that came to mind and I knew it might cost me if I moved too quickly so I exercised some caution. I was fairly certain that DOLLY had to be the answer when I got to my sixth guess. 

The last time it took me 6 guesses to finish a game was exactly 6 weeks today. I’ve had longer streaks without finishing a game in 6 guesses. My record is 53 days or about seven-and-a-half weeks.

This is the seventh time this month that I have started a game with 0.0.5. This is the second time that I have started seven games in a calendar month with 0.0.5. The other time I started seven games with 0.0.5 in a calendar month with 0.0.5 was in Jul 2023.

This is the first time this month I have started a game with 0.0.5 and finished it in 6 guesses. One out of every eight times (12/96) that I have started a game with 0.0.5 it has taken me 6 guesses to finish it. Seven of the 12 times that I have started a game with 0.0.5 and finished it in 6 guesses have occurred during my current winning streak.

⬛️🟨⬛️⬛️⬛️ VIGOR
🟩⬛️🟨🟨🟨 PLAIN
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 PAINT

Time: 1-2 minutes

This is the 4th consecutive game that I have finished in 3 guesses. This is the first time I have finished 4 consecutive games in 3 guesses. After my first guess I was very doubtful that I would extend my streak of games that I have finished in 3 guesses. After my second guess I thought my odds had improved greatly. PAINT was the only word that and that came to mind for my third guess.

Games played: 850
Winning streak: 409

This is my 850th game of Wordle. Here are some stats.

My average score for my last 25 games seems very low next to all my other average scores. It looks like that can mostly be attributed to the number of games I finished in 3 guesses. I completed almost half (12/25) of my last 25 games in 3 guesses. My overall average number of games that I completed in 3 guesses is closer to half that at 26.2 percent. Accordingly, the number of games I finished in 4, 5 or 6 games seems much lower than normal.

I spent most of my time on my fourth guess. I kept trying to find words that began with T or L. I tried LATIN but that was rejected. VAULT was the first word I found that fit.

It’s a green and yellow pyramid surrounded by nothing but black. I’ve only had that happen once before, on Apr 18, 2022 but I finished that game in 3 guesses. I had a solid green pyramid surrounded by nothing but black on Nov 16, 2023.

Time: 3-4 minutes

I spent most of my time on my third guess. At first I was looking for a word that began with G.

This is the second time that I have had a 5.5.5 game (5 green, 5 yellow, 5 black). The last time this happened was Mar 18, 2023. That time around I started with 0.2.3 and my second guess was 0.3.2.

This is the second time I have had an equal number of green, yellow, and black letters. There are two combinations (5.5.5 and 10.10.10) that could yield such a result but I have yet to have a 10.10.10 game.

This is the third time I have had back to back games that started with 0.1.4 and that took me 3 guesses to finish. I’ve never started more than two consecutive games with 0.1.4 that I finished in 3 guesses.

This is my third 5G game this month. I have finished all three of my 5G games this month in 3 guesses. This is the third time that I have finished three 5G games in a calendar month in 3 guesses. The two other times this happened were in Jul 2022 and Jun 2023. Both previous times I had at least one more 5G game during the month, which I didn’t finish in 3 guesses. 

This is the second 5G game this month that I have started with 0.1.4 and finished in 3 guesses. This is the second time that I have had two 5G games in a calendar month that I started with 0.1.4 and finished in 3 guesses. The other time this happened was in Jun 2023.

⬛️🟩🟩⬛️⬛️ PASTY
🟩🟩🟩🟩⬛️ BASIC
🟩🟩🟩🟩⬛️ BASIS
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 BASIN

I thought of BASIS before I thought of BASIN. At that point in the game there wasn’t really an advantage in trying a word with five different letters so I went with BASIS.
