Wow! My first four guesses have all been the answer in the past.

This is my 104th 5G game. This is the sixth time it has taken me 5 guesses to complete a 5G game. Three of those six games happened during my 17th streak (133 games). Four of those games happened in 2026.

This is the third time that I have started a 5G game with 0.0.5 and finished it in 5 guesses. This is the fourth time that I have started a 5G game with double 0.0.5 but it’s the first time that I have started a 5G game with double 0.0.5 and finished it in 5 guesses.

I spent most of my time going from three to four. No real words came to mind for the longest time.

This is the 11th time that I have had a YB game, a game which there is an equal number of yellow and black letters and a lesser number of green letters. In this case the count is 6.7.7. Ten of the 11 games have been 6.7.7 games. The other one was my one and only 7.9.9 game.

This is the fourth time that I have had a YB game start with 0.1.4. The seven other YB games all started with 0.2.3.

⬛️⬛️🟨⬛️⬛️ CHART
⬛️🟩🟨🟨⬛️ GLEAM
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 ALLEY

Time 11:00

I really took my time with this one. I wanted my second guess to have both H and L and just one vowel but I couldn’t think of any words that fit that criteria. I was pretty sure after my third guess that the first letter had to be A. I didn’t think of ALLEY until just before I gave it a try.

This my fifth green and yellow pyramid and my second one this year. This is the first time I’ve had two this close together. My last one happened on 03/27/26.

I thought of CAROM and then probably spent three minutes trying to come up with other possible answers before finally giving it a try.
