Wordle Bulletin #670 (April 20, 2023) — “3’s twice in a row with the new triad!”


Note:  I am testing a new scheme starting with puzzle #669.  Until now the first two words of the triad represented the 10 most frequent letters (STARE/COLIN/PUDGY or ALTER/SONIC/PUDGY). The 3rd word of the triad excluded the 12th most frequent letter (H) in favor of the 16th most frequent letter (G). I want to change the triad to include H.   The new triad is CHAOS/TIMER/DUPLY. The first two words of the triad include H and M (12th and 17th most frequent) and exclude L and N (6th and 9th most frequent).  I will give this triad at least 30 days for testing before making a judgement.

Today’s Wordle:
Target Word
: PLATE
# Of Guesses:
3.0 WordleBot average per Marc McLaren*,3 for WordleGuru. 😐

Seed Word: CHAOS – Testing a new scheme, as described above.
What we learned from the Seed Word: One vowel (A) in the 3rd spot.

2nd word: TIMER: (2nd word of the new triad). It revealed 2 consonants – T & E but not their positions.  At this stage 5 possibilities – DEALT, ELATE, PLATE, EXALT, and LEAPT.  I felt EXALT or LEAPT is unlikely to be the answer. That left me with three words to deal with.  It was time to deploy the EnotE© strategy.

3rd word: I prefer to use one of the possible words as an elimination word if it makes sense.  Such a move affords the possibility of solving the puzzle in 3 guesses, provided luck was in my corner. It was the case today.  My lucky day! 😊

Final Thoughts: Wordle is a game of luck and skill. Sometimes luck favors the game and sometimes it favors the player. Today was a lucky day for me. 😊
