Wordle 1053

🟨🟩⬛️⬛️⬛️ TUNIC
⬛️🟩🟨⬛️⬛️ OUTER
⬛️🟩⬛️⬛️🟨 AUGHT
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 MUSTY

Time: 3-4 minutes

I almost went with LUSTY for my fourth guess but I thought of MUSTY first and decided to stick with that. I am happy to see that I made the right call this time around.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 1.1.3. I have started at least one game with 1.1.3 in 26 of the past 27 months.

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 20 of the past 27 months.

Wordle 1052

⬛️⬛️⬛️⬛️🟩 PRUDE
⬛️🟨⬛️🟨🟩 LATHE
🟩🟩🟩⬛️🟩 SHAME
🟩🟩🟩⬛️🟩 SHAKE
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 SHAVE

Time: 2-3 minutes

Looking back on this game I can see that my first couple guesses helped to eliminate quite a few possible answers.

After my third guess I considered playing SHAVE but I thought of SHAKE first so I went with that for my fourth guess.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 1.0.4. This is the sixth 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 26 of the past 27 months.

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 second consecutive month that I have started at least one game with 1.0.4 and finished it in 5 guesses. I have started games with 1.0.4 that I have finished in 5 guesses in 16 of the past 27 months.

This is the 32nd time during my current winning streak that I have started a game with 1.0.4 and finished it in 5 guesses. This is twice the number of games that I started with 1.0.4 and finished in 5 guesses during my eighth streak (213 games).

Not so hot. I’m not sure if my last guess was the only possibility at that point but it was the only one that I thought of that I was certain was actually a word.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 0.1.4 and finished it in 6 guesses. I have started at least one game with 0.1.4 and finished it in 6 guesses in 17 of the past 27 months.

Wordle 1049

⬛️🟨⬛️🟨⬛️ COWER
⬛️⬛️🟩⬛️🟨 SHOVE
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 EBONY

Time: 5-6 minutes

I spent most of my time on my third guess. My first thought (after my second guess) was that the first letter was probably E but it took me a few minutes to find a word that fit. EBONY was the first and only word I came up with that fit.

This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 0.2.3 and finished it in 3 guesses. This is the fourth consecutive month that I have started at least one game with 0.2.3 and finished it in 3 guesses. I have started at least one game with 0.2.3 and finished it in 3 guesses in 23 of the past 27 months.

This is the 20th time during my current winning streak that I have started a game with 0.2.3 and finished it in 3 guesses. This is double the number of games that I started with 0.2.3 and finished in 3 guesses during my eighth winning streak (213 games).

This is my 800th game of Wordle. Here are some stats. 

My average number of guesses for my last 100 games was 3.88 which is a bit better than my previous record of 3.93.

I finished 95 of my last 100 games in less than 6 guesses, which ties a record high. I finished 33 of my last 100 games in 4 guesses which ties a record low.

I started 46 of my last 100 games with 0.1.4 which is more than my previous record high of 34 games. I started three of my last 100 games with 1.0.4 which is considerably lower than my previous record low.
