I spent most of my time on my third and fourth guesses.

This is the first time in over a month that it has taken me ten or more minutes to finish a game.

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 BROAD

Time 4:45

I could have finished this game a little faster because BROAD immediately came to mind after my third guess but I took a step back and looked for other possible answers before I tried it.

Games played: 935

Winning streak: 50

This is my 50th game of my current winning streak. After 25 games I wrote that I felt as if I had reached low Earth orbit. I now feel as though I have made it to the Moon.

This is now my fourth longest winning streak. I surpassed my previous fourth longest winning streak a week ago when my current winning streak reached 43 games.

It’s interesting to me to note some of the differences in the stats for this streak in comparison to my three other winning streaks that got this far. Fifty games in to this winning streak I have a worse average score than the other three winning streaks, have finished fewer games in 3 or 4 guesses. and more games in 5 guesses, but I have also finished more games in 2 guesses during my current winning streak than I did during the other three winning streak combined. Very strange.

See stats below for more disparities between this winning streak and the other three that reach the 50 game mark.

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 BRASS

Time 3:25

The first word that occurred to me after my third guess that fit was BRASS but I then thought of GRASS. I almost went with GRASS but decided to stick with BRASS because I thought of it first.

This is the second time this year and seventh time overall that I have had nothing but black letters on my first two guesses. The last time this happened was about 3 months ago on 06/08/24.

It took me a second to figure out what possible words fit after my first guess. My second guess is the only one that came to mind.

I feel as though I should have finished this one faster than I did but it is what it is.

This is the 4th game this winning streak that I have finished in less than 3 guesses. I finished 4 games in less than 3 guesses during my third winning streak (95 games). I finished one of those games in 1 guess and the others in 2 guesses.
