🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 OLDEN

Time 3:20

This game didn’t take me very long but at first I was really stumped as to what to play after my first guess. My first guess (according to the bot) narrowed it down to 10 possible answers. My second narrowed it down to just 2 possible answers.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 2.0.3. This is the fourth consecutive month that I have started at least one game with 2.0.3. I have started at least one game with 2.0.3 in 40 of the past 54 months.

This is the first time this month and 27th time overall that I have started a game with 2.0.3 and finished it in 3 guesses. This is the second 0Y game during my current winning streak that I began with 2.0.3 and finished in 3 guesses. I had 5 such games during my 10th winning streak (443 games) but that’s the only other winning streak in which this has occurred more than once.

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 PRAWN

Time 1:25

I see it but I don’t believe it. There was only one other word that came to mind after my first guess but (according to the bot) there were 19 possible answers at that point.

This is the second time this month and third time during my current winning streak that I have started a game with 1.1.3 and finished it in 2 guesses. This is the first time that this has happened more than once in a calendar month and more than twice in a winning streak.

Games played: 1642

Winning streak: 100

This is the 100th game of my current winning streak. This is my fifth winning streak to reach this point. -So far my 19th winning streak is roughly comparable to my 17th (at this point) with a few notable exceptions. I have finished more games in 4 guesses and fewer in 3 or five guesses in my 19th winning streak than I did in my 17th. I have started considerably more games with 1.0.4 and considerably fewer with 0.0.5 in my 19th winning streak than I did in my 17th.

Here are some more stats.

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 TRACE

Time 3:00

The results of my first guess looked wonderful except for the fact that I wasn’t sure how many possible answers there were left and I was playing in hard mode. I saw at least three possible answers after my second guess, two of which included the letter C so I went one of them. There were nine possible answers after my first guess (according to the bot) and eight after my second guess.

This is the first time this month, second time this year, and 13th time overall that I have started a game with 3.0.2. I have added a tag for games that begin with 3.0.2.

This is the first time this month, second time this year, and third time overall that I have started a game with 3.0.2 and finished it in 3 guesses. One of those other two games was also a 0Y game.

This is the first time that I have had a game that had 11 green and 4 black letters.

TRACE was also the solution in Dec 2023. This is the fourth game this month in which the answer was a repeat.

This game ends my streak of games in which I had three or more black letters in my first guess at 40 games. My longest streak of this nature was 43 games in length.

⬛️🟩🟩⬛️🟩 FURRY

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 MURKY

Time 8:00

I considered making FURRY my third guess but I wisely chose not to do that. There were just two possible solutions after my third guess (according to the bot) but I didn’t know that at the time and MURKY didn’t occur to me until after my fourth guess.

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 GRILL

Time 7:10

I considered making GRILL my fourth guess but BRING seemed like the smarter play.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 0.1.4 and finished it in 5 guesses. This is the fifth consecutive month 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 51 of the past 54 months.

Time 2:20

I think I got very lucky with my second guess.

I had a similar game on 03/13/26. Even though the arrangement of the yellow and black letters in my first two guesses of that game was different, I started that game with PRINT and I finished it in 2:20.

Time 2:25

I was determined not to try a word that ended in ER (when working on my second and third guesses) unless I absolutely had to. Thankfully I did not and didn’t have much trouble finding other words I could play.

There were still over 125 possible solutions after my second guess (according to the bot) but my third guess narrowed it down to just one possibility.

My current winning streak (19th) is now tied with my 3rd winning streak at 95 games as my fifth longest winning streak. Here’s a side by side comparison of the two streaks.
