I wasn’t really expecting that my fourth guess would be the answer but I’m glad that it was.

⬛️🟨⬛️⬛️⬛️ LIGHT

⬛️⬛️🟨⬛️🟨 CRIMP

⬛️🟨🟩🟩⬛️ VAPID

⬛️⬛️🟩🟩🟩 POPIA

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 SEPIA

Time 15:15

One letter can make a big difference. If my second guess had been CRISP then I might have finished this game faster although I doubt that SEPIA would have been been my third guess under those circumstances. 

I tried quite a few words that were not in the list of playable words. I fully expected POPIA to be rejected for that reason.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 0.1.4 and finished it in 5 guesses. This the third month in a row that I have started at least one game with 0.1.4 and finished it in 5 guesses. I have started at least one game with 0.1.4 and finished it in 5 guesses in 49 of the past 52 months.

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 QUELL

Time 4:45

I think I got pretty lucky with both my second and third guesses. Both really helped me to nail this one down.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 0.0.5 and finished it in 4 guesses. This is the 27th consecutive month that I have started at least one game with 0.0.5 and finished it in 4 guesses. I have started at least one game with 0.0.5 and finished it in 4 guesses in 48 of the past 52 guesses.

🟩🟩🟩🟩⬛️ BREAD

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 BREAK

Time 3:25

I could have had this one in three. That would have made it a 5G game but then I thought of BREAD and it seemed like a better guess at that point in the game. Oops?

This is the second time that BREAK has been the answer. The first time it was the answer was in Dec 2021, before I started to play. It is the 16th word to have been the answer twice.

I have no idea how many other possible answers there were after my third guess. I went with the first one that came to mind.

I’m not sure if there were any other possible answers after my third guess but only one came to mind.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 0.2.3 and finished it in 4 guesses. This is the second month in a row that I have started at least one game with 0.2.3 and finished it in 4 guesses. I have started at least one game with 0.2.3 and finished it in 4 guesses in 47 of the past 52 months.

🟩🟩⬛️⬛️⬛️ WHOLE

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 WHARF

Time 6:05

I spent most of my time on my time on my second guess. I considered making WHOLE my second guess but I only wanted there to be one vowel in my second guess.

This is the first time this month and 24th time overall that I have started a 0Y game with 1.0.4 and finished it in 4 guesses. This is my most common start / finish combination for 0Y games and yet it only accounts for about 1/6 (or to be precise 24/142) of my 0Y games.
