That’s it for Aug. My average score for Aug was 4.16 which isn’t great but I’ve done worse.

Two of my longest streaks ended in Aug: games without finishing a game in 2 guesses (75 games, which tied the record I set last year) and games without a 5G (59 games, which was 7 games longer than the previous record).

I started a game with 0.4.1 in Aug. It was the first time in 2023 and the third time in the 18 plus months I have been playing Wordle that I have started a game with 0.4.1.

Here are some stats.

I probably should have had this one in 2 guesses. AUDIO is one of my go to words that I like to use if it fits because it includes four vowels.

This is the 25th time that I have started a game with 1.0.4 and finished it in 4 guesses. This is the first time this month that I have started a game with 1.0.4 and finished it in 4 guesses. This is the 12th consecutive month that I have had at least one game that began with 1.0.4 and finished in 4 guesses. 

My current streak is now exactly 100 games shorter than my longest streak.

This is the first time I have had a 5G game that started with 0.4.1. 

This is the is the fourth time I have had a 5G game that I finished in 2 guesses. I started the three other 5G games that I finished in 2 guesses with 0.3.2.

This game ends my streak of games without a 5G game. That streak lasted 59 games. That streak is my longest without a 5G game. 

This game ends my streak of games without finishing a game in 2 guesses. That streak lasted 75 games and is now tied for my longest streak of games without finishing a game in 2 guesses.
