I'm stumped so far. Have 4 of 5 letters, none in the correct spot.
This game can make you feel like a geenyus one day and a moran the next.

So, strategy wise, if you get say 2 letters in the first guess do you only guess words with those letters in them trying to get the location? Or do you pick a word with 5 different letters to try and figure out the letters and then think of words that have a combination of the letters from your first two guesses?

With limited guesses I am guessing that others are guessing like me and if you find any letters in your first guess you just use words with those letters and figure out the position at the same time.

The former approach is better if you want to solve it as fast as possible because you aren't wasting a turn.

The latter is probably better for a better guarantee you will get it within six.

I'm a former because I want to eventually get it in two.

Very lucky today with first guess.

Stuck a long time after 3rd guess. Funny how sometimes it just pops in your head.

I used to always start with these two words but I don’t always follow that strategy anymore

The game is getting too smart for this.

It's a pretty good word for "dordle" though.
