Wordle 1937

⬛️⬛️⬛️⬛️🟨 LODGE
⬛️⬛️🟨🟨🟨 CHEST
🟩🟩🟩🟩⬛️ STREP
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 STREW

Time 4:05

I thought of STREW after my second guess but for whatever reason I liked STREP better. Anyhow, there were nine possible answers after my second guess, according to the bot, and just one after my third.

My average number of guesses per game for the current month and my current winning streak are both currently 4.13.

⬛️⬛️🟩⬛️🟩 WHOLE
⬛️🟩🟩🟨🟩 TROPE
🟩🟩🟩⬛️🟩 PRONE
🟩🟩🟩⬛️🟩 PROSE
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 PROVE

Time 3:10

I got a bit nervous after my third guess. I only saw three possible answers and, according to the bot, that’s all there was left but I didn’t know that I was correct about that. I tried those words in the order that they occurred to me.

This is the second time that PROVE has been the answer. The first time was in late November 2021, before I started to play this game. This is the first time this month that the answer has been a repeat.

This is the first time this month and 20th time overall that I have started a game with 1.0.4 and successfully finished it in 6 guesses. This is the second month in a row that I have started at least one game with 1.0.4 and successfully finished it in 6 guesses. This is the second time that this has happened in back to back months.

This is the first time this month, second time this year, and 16th time overall that I have had 17 or more green letters in a game. I finished all but one of those games successfully and all but two of them went the distance. The last time I had 17 or more green letters in a game was on 06/01/26.

This is the third time during my current winning streak that I started a game with 1.0.4 and finished it in successfully 6 guesses. The only other winning streak in which I had three such games was my 10th (443 games). I have never had a winning streak in which I had more than three such games.

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 DIMLY

Time 0:35

Wow! What a lucky first guess. I might have finished 15-20 seconds faster if I hadn’t been stunned by the outcome of my first guess.

There was, according to the bot, just one possible answer after my first guess.

This is the fourth time that I have started a game with 2.2.1 and the third time I have finished such a game in 2 guesses.

This is the first game this month that I have finished in under a minute. The last time I finished a game in under a minute was was on 08/13/26.

This is the first time this month that I have found at least two consonants with my first guess. This is the first time (ever) that I have found four consonants in my first guess. Yes, I count Y as a consonant.

⬛️⬛️⬛️🟨⬛️ SPRAG
🟨🟨🟨⬛️⬛️ CHANT
⬛️⬛️🟩🟩🟩 DACHA
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 MOCHA

Time 9:00

I spent most of my time on my third guess. My second guess, according to the bot, narrowed it down to seven words and my third to just one. MACHO was one of the six other words that could have been my third guess but I’m not sure what the other five were.

This is the 26th time that I have started a game with 0.1.4 and finished it in 4 guesses during my current winning streak. This ties the number of times I had this start / finish combination during my eighth winning streak (213 games). It is only exceeded by the 28 times it happened during my 16th winning streak (203 games) and 66 times it happened during my 10th winning streak (443 games).

⬛️⬛️⬛️⬛️🟨 RUMBA
⬛️⬛️🟩⬛️⬛️ PLANT
🟩🟩🟩⬛️⬛️ SHADE
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 SHACK

Time 7:00

I really wanted my third guess to not have more than one vowel but I couldn’t think of any words that fit that used only the more commonly used letters so I went with SHADE, the first word that came to mind. I thought of SHACK almost immediately after I saw the results of my third guess but I sat on it for maybe a minute while I tried to figure out what other possible answers there might be. There was another possible word, according to the bot, after my second guess but it didn’t occur to me.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 0.1.4. This is the 56th consecutive that I have started at least one game with 0.1.4.

This is the first time this month that I have started at least one game with 0.1.4 and finished it in 4 guesses. This is the 56th consecutive month that I have started at least one game with 0.1.4 and finished it in 4 guesses.

I spent most of my time on my second guess. It, my second guess, according to the bot, narrowed down the possible answers to just one word. It, the answer, didn’t come to mind until after I spent a lot of time trying to find a word that fit and wound up trying a word that I knew couldn’t be it.
