🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 BEFIT

Time 4:30

BEFIT wasn’t on my radar screen until after my third guess but I’m pretty sure it was the only possible answer after my third guess.

This is the 10th game this month that I have finished in 4 guesses this is the ninth consecutive month that I have finished at least 10 games in 4 guesses. I have finished at least 10 games in 4 guesses in 40 of the past 49 months.

Time 17:00

Another scary game! I played this one on hard mode. I decided I had two options after my fourth guess. Turn off hard mode or check to see which of the three words I imagined could be the answer had already been the answer in the past. I chose the latter and found that FIXER had already been the answer in the past but that neither BIKER nor WISER had.

I suppose that RISER was another possible answer but that didn’t occur me until after the fact.

This is the fourth time that I have successfully finished back to back games in 6 guesses. The last time this happened was in Oct 2024. The other two times this happened were in Jan 2023 and Feb 2023.

This is the third time that I have started a game with 0.2.3 and successfully finished it in 6 guesses during my current winning streak. This ties the mark I set during my eighth winning streak (213 games) and is only exceeded by the 7 times it happened during my 10th winning streak (443 games).

That was a little scary. I contemplated turning off hard mode but didn’t although maybe I should have. I’m not sure what other possible answers there were after my fifth guess.

My second, third, fourth, and fifth guesses have all been the answer in the past.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 0.1.4 and finished it in 6 guesses. I have started at least one game with 0.1.4 and finished it in 6 guesses in 29 of the past 49 months.

I probably spent more than 10 minutes on my last guess. I thought about trying some words that ended in ER with my fourth guess. Maybe I would have finished it faster if I had.

I wasn’t sure that my second guess was a word but I gave it a shot anyway.

This is the third time during my current winning streak that I have started a game with 2.0.3 and finished it in 3 guesses. This ties the number of times I started a game with 2.0.3 and finished it in 3 guesses during my eighth winning streak (213 games) and is only exceeded by the number of times this happened (10 and 7, respectively) during my 10th (443 games) and 16th (203 games) winning streaks.

That was fast.

This is the third time that I have started a game with 2.1.2 during my current winning streak. I started seven games with 2.1.2 during my 10th winning streak (443 games), the only other winning streak in which I started more than two games with 2.1.2.

This is the first time during my current winning streak and 10th time overall that I have started a game with 2.1.2 and finished it in 3 guesses. Six of those ten games occurred during my 10th winning streak (443 games), the only winning streak in which this has happened more than once.
