Wordle 483 X/6







My first fail after 90 successes. I would have succeeded with 8 guesses.

Mine is less Gaussian:

 

[kuruman]

Mine is incomprehensible. The area under the curve (games won) is W = 80, the total games played is N = 80, yet the current streak is 50. How can that be? If the streak is broken, I must have lost at least one game in which case one would expect W < N plus I don't remember losing any games. My stats don't look right, but clicking the link doesn't do much for me. Anyway, I'm not losing any sleep over this.

You don’t need to lose a game to break the streak. Missing a game also breaks it. For example, my current streak is 3 and based on my posts in this thread, I missed game 480 and solved 481, 482, 483.

In retrospect, I was lucky to get the first letter in the right place immediately.

Yup. It took me a bit of thought to come up with a 4th guess that would guarantee win on guess 5…

That was a tough one.

That was a tough one.

I admit that I ran out of words and had to take some help.

I only use a dictionary because there are words I simply do not know. This one was tough because I am well aware of that word but in another language. I guess it is an emigration; kind of.

I think this is the first time the answer was I word I've never seen before. I had to Google to see if those 5 letters really were a word.

As mentioned, it is very likely an emigrant from my point of view and an immigrant from yours.
Google: Steinkrug. More common, however, is the word Tongefäß = pot made of clay or Tonkrug.

When I think something might be a word that would be a good guess but am not sure it is actually a word I just enter it. If it is not a word Wordle will reject it and I lost nothing. This happens more in Spanish than in English in my case.

A good first word helps.

It also helps that my nephew has a collection of these.
