Wordle 1 175 3/6





I have now solved Wordle 500 days in a row.

Played it even more days in a row but there was that fateful day 501 days ago when I managed to misspell the word I knew was the solution on guess 6 … unfortunately the misspelling was also a word …

I have no idea why this was so hard for me. Once I found the solution it seemed so obvious!

EDIT: It might be relevant that I only found it after arriving home and gearing down.

Went into some kinda nerdy overdrive angry over the days abysmal result. I had an old IRC wordguess program lying around and cannabalized it to write this:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/wordlecheater/

I'm not really sure if it's publicly available as I cannot find the log out button on sourceforge. It was written as a challenge to myself and for the sheer fun of it. I'm not gonna use it to cheat. I mean, what would be the point?

The synopsis goes like:

Spoiler

./main [-l n] wordfile regex

as in (Example run for wordle (Sep. 6, 2024, "RERUN") "?er??":):

./main -l 5 '^([QWRUPFLZXVNM]{1})ER([QWRUPFLZXVNM]{2})$' csw.txt

Oh, forgot the output:

I know claimed I "geared down" but, yeah, I do stuff like this for fun. You don't get to judge me!
