Blind guessing when it came to the blues and purples.

My Thrice score for yesterday was increased to 8, after they accepted "Corona" when wanted "Covid 19."

I didn't recognize the blues either.
At first, I thought "Ken" and "Sud" were for Kenya and Sudan, and it was "beginnings of African countries," but then I linked Acro and Cross, added Sud, and guessed on Ken as it appeard to be a much better fit than the remaining four

Wordle #1931 October 2: 4/6 par

⬜⬜🟨🟨⬜ PARSE / BBYYB
🟨⬜🟨⬜⬜ ROSIN / YBYBB
🟨⬜🟨🟨⬜ STRUM / YBYYB
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 USURY / Correct

With G = 1, Y = ½, & B = 0, I scored 1, 1, 1½, and 5.

I spent more than ten minutes solving this one. Tracy has strayed for a second consecutive day.

STRUM was a bad guess: R could not be the third letter.

Lifetime I now have 18 more birdies than pars.

My streak is at a new personal high of 546.

Anyone who has played it a lot, success becomes more and more based on "this possible word was already in a prior Wordle so it can't be in this one again" such that the game doesn't mean as much anymore. That's at least one fatal or at least ongoing flaw with this, that people who have played it a lot are playing a different game from those just starting.
link to original post



I still play only rarely.

And the point I made becomes increasingly relevant as time goes on.

There are really two different Wordle games being played. One is played by people like me, who almost never play and must actually solve the puzzle presented. The other is played by people who have completed virtually every Wordle since its inception and may eliminate otherwise plausible answers simply because they remember those words having already been used.

The question therefore becomes not merely, “How well can I solve this puzzle?” but, “How well can I remember which words have already been used up?”

At some point, the ability to remember previously used words may become more important than actual puzzle-solving skill.

I just did a little research.

Apparently Wordle finally recognized the problem. It began reusing prior answers in February 2026—effectively conceding the point I made nine months earlier.
