Time 3:20

My fourth guess should have been my third guess. Somehow I overlooked the fact that A had already been eliminated when choosing my third guess. I didn’t notice my mistake until after I had finished the game.

I was a bit nervous after my third guess but according to the bot there were just two possible answers at that point.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 1.0.4 and finished it in 5 guesses. This is the 12th consecutive month that I have started at least one game with 1.0.4 and finished it in 5 guesses. I have started at least one game with 1.0.4 and finished it in 5 guesses in 39 of the past 54 months.

This game ends my streak of games that I finished in less than 5 guesses at 11 games. My longest such streak lasted for 15 games.

I thought about making SNIPE my third guess but then I thought of SWIPE and liked it better.

🟨⬛️⬛️🟨⬛️ NOTCH

🟩🟩⬛️🟩⬛️ CLING

🟩🟩⬛️🟩🟩 CLANK

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 CLUNK

Time 6:30

I spent most of my time on my second guess. CLINK was one of the words I considered before settling on on CLING. Theres a pretty good chance that I still would have played CLANK before CLUNK even if CLINK had been my second guess.

This is the 10th consecutive game that I have finished in less than 5 guesses. This is the first such streak that I have had that has lasted this long this year. It is the eighth one that I have had that has lasted this long in the past 54 months.

Time 2:20

I spent most of my time on my second guess. My third guess came to mind quickly and (according to the bot) was the only possible solution at that point.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 1.0.4. This the 33rd consecutive month that I have started at least one game with 1.0.4. I have started at least one game with 1.0.4 in 53 of the past 54 months.

This is the 17th time I have started a game with 1.0.4 during my current winning streak. I also started 17 games with 1.0.4 during my 17th winning streak (133 games).

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 third month in a row that I have started at least one game with 1.0.4 and finished it in 3 guesses. I have started at least one game with 1.0.4 and finished it in 3 guesses in 33 of the past 54 months.

⬛️🟩🟨⬛️🟩 BEGUN

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 FEIGN

Time 6:50

This is the second time that FEIGN has been the answer. The first time it was the answer was in Jul 2021, before I began playing. Yesterday’s answer was also a repeat. I believe this is the first time that the answers on back to back days have both been repeats.

So far this month I have finished all my games in less than 5 guesses. This is only the third time that I have made it a week or more into a month without finishing a game in 5 or more guesses. The two prior months in which this happened were Feb 2025 (14 days) and Sep 2025 (13 days).

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 GRIPE

Time 3:05

While I was working on my third guess it occurred to me that PRICE would probably have been a better second guess.

This is the second time that GRIPE has been the answer. It was also the answer in Apr 2022. This the first time this month and 21st time overall that a word has been reused in this manner.

I also started yesterday’s game with 1.1.3. This is the 11th time I have started back to back games with 1.1.3. I have never started more than 2 games in a row with 1.1.3.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 1.1.3 and finished it in 4 guesses. I have started at least one game with 1.1.3 and finished it in 4 guesses in 32 of the past 54 months.
