Wordle #1668 January 12: 3/6 birdie

⬜🟨🟨⬜⬜ PARSE / BYYBB
⬜🟩🟨⬜🟩 BRAWL / BGYBG
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 TRIAL / Correct

With G = 1, Y = ½, & B = 0, I scored 1, 2½, and 5.

I spent about one minute solving this one. Just like yesterday, PARSE gave BYYBB, so I played BRAWL once again, which showed that the answer was likely _R_AL. This led me directly to TRIAL.

My streak is at a new personal high of 283.

Connections Puzzle #946 January 12: perfect

🟦🟦🟦🟦 BBBB
🟩🟩🟩🟩 GGGG
🟨🟨🟨🟨 YYYY
🟪🟪🟪🟪 PPPP

Same solution order as yesterday for me.

Today I did not see the purple ENDING IN U.S. COINS Connection.

My streak is at 7.

Was it just me, or did all of the words seem like they could be part of a purple "word connection"?

Was surprised this word hadn’t been used!

Add: I completely forgot this is the Wizard’s starting word! The day has arrived, Wiz!

I need a new starting word that has hope, which can be easily followed up with a strong second word. Any suggestions?

Reverse of yesterday's solution order for me.

Today I saw all the Connections.

My streak is at 8.

P.S. I apologize for single-handedly raising our board's average Wordle score yesterday by 0.3 (from 6/4 = 1.5 to 9/5 = 1.8) with my abysmal 3 😆

P.P.S. Wiz, you might try PARSE/MOUND: this combination covers 4 of the vowels, both words are on the original list of 2309, and neither has yet been an answer.
