In summary, the player played the New York Times daily word game and found that they had a higher fail rate in playing against Spanish-speaking humans. They also mentioned that the game is similar to a board game they remember from their childhood.

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 [SWELL]

That was lucky and a deception. I used the word I thought would have been the most probable (a wink to the US election?) instead of my suggested filter word WHILE (guaranteeing an answer in 4) to end up with the last word I would have chosen between the 5 possible answers.

most-probable method count update (Success/Fail): 35/15 - 70%/30%

Is it possible this only occurred by chance?
Orodruin said:
What you need to compute is the probability of this (or a more extreme result) occurring by chance if it were random.

I got last Wednesday's game in 4 instead of 3 because of ChaseLess's hole in one.

If ChatGPT is to be trusted:

The term **"primi"** has several possible meanings depending on the context:

1. **In Latin/Italian**:
- *Primi* is the plural form of "primo," which means **"first"** in English.
- In Italian cuisine, *"primi"* refers to **"first courses"**, typically pasta, risotto, or soup dishes served before the main course (*secondi*).

2. **In medical terminology**:
- *Primi* is short for *primigravida* or *primipara*, referring to a woman who is pregnant or giving birth for the first time.

3. **In general usage**:
- It may refer to **"firsts"** or something considered of primary importance, depending on the context.

If you have a specific context in mind, let me know, and I can refine the explanation!

Or twelve blanks and three 'hits.' I was expecting this to go to 5 or even 6 when suddenly I saw a word that brings "Tom and Jerry" to my mind. That can't be right, I thought.

I know, but which one? according to anywhere on the Internet:
https://wordsrated.com/wordle-words/ said:
  • In total, there are 2,309 words that can be potential Wordle solutions.
  • However, originally the game was released with a dictionary of 2,315 words
  • After the game’s purchase by The New York Times, 6 words were removed due to being either offensive, out of date or using non-US spelling.
  • The full Wordle database contains 12,966 words, as players can also choose from a dictionary of 10,657 additional words that can be used to narrow down the answer.
From what I understand, people know this because the full list of words used to be downloaded with the game before NYT. It appears that NYT modified its list again but I doubt it is the full list.

I don't understand why the full 12,966 words are not used and why a word is not allowed to be repeated. It would make the game more fun and a computer program much simpler.
