This is the second time during this winning streak and third time overall that I have started a game with 3.0.2. I also finished the other two games that began with 3.0.2 in 2 guesses. Those games happened on Sep 3, 2022 and Jan 15, 2023.

This is my first 0Y game this month and 27th one overall. This is the 12th month in a row that I have had at least one 0Y game.

This is the first game I have finished in 2 guesses this month and 14th one overall. I have now finished at least one game in 2 guesses in nine of the past eleven months.

Time: 5-6 minutes

I didn’t notice that I had left the E and R in the same place in my my third guess until after I submitted my third guess. I meant to try a word that ended in RE for my third guess but I guess it all worked out in the end.

This game ends my streak of games which began with 4 or 5 black letters. The streak had reached 12 games and began on Feb 20. My longest streak of this sort was 13 games long and occurred Jul 16-28, 2022.

The last time I started a game with 0.2.3 was on Feb 13.

This is my first 5G game this month. I have had at least one 5G game in all but one of the past 12 months.

This is my 375th game of Wordle. Here are some numbers. I finished considerably more of the past 25 games in 4 to 6 guesses (84%) than usual (69.3%). Games that began with 1.0.4 or 0.1.4 accounted for a higher percentage of the last 25 games (72%) than usual (46.1%).

My winning streak is up to 165 games.
