Wordle #1779 May 3: 6/6 double bogey

🟩⬜⬜⬜⬜ PARSE / GBBBB
🟩🟩⬜⬜⬜ PUNCH / GGBBB
🟩🟩⬜⬜🟩 PUDGY / GGBBG
🟩🟩⬜⬜🟩 PUPPY / GGBBG
🟩🟩⬜⬜🟩 PUTTY / GGBBG
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 PUFFY / Correct

With G = 1, Y = ½, & B = 0, I scored 1, 2, 3, 3, 3, and 5.

I spent more than ten minutes solving this one. I'm lucky the answer wasn't PULLY

Sea of Greens #168 and double bogey #39 for this old dog.

My streak is at a new personal high of 394.

Whenever one word seems to "stick out," it's probably part of a "word group" - one where the items themselves don't have anything in common, but the words themselves do.

I play this maybe once every few months, but I somehow got the last four letters on the second try, then took a few to get the first letter.


This is where I wonder if the other spellings (different first letter) of that word had already been played, such that someone who has played a lot would already know to eliminate those choices.

That's a fair point. To play the devil's advocate, not all three-striped flags are equally trisected.
