I got pretty lucky here. Eliminating common consonants was huge.

lame attempt to hide a mild spoiler but it doesn't work in Kbin

No one expects the double-double!

That starting word is great! In my research, I rank it among the 14,855 possible starting words for Hard Mode players. F is the only bad letter.

Good game! A tricky word, but statistics prevail.

December 19, 2022 was SLATE, the one word everyone agreed was a good starting word by every possible measure. I got SLATE in 1/6, and a lot of other people did, too.

I thought my third guess was pretty clever, but the bots don't like it.

Here we go again. Alice in Wonderland's rabbit hole? That's not flying; that's falling with style! I think it's stylish enough to belong here.

I've been using the same starting word for most games since I lost one 2 months ago. I'm developing a strategy that hopefully never loses yet still tries to get decent results, and that requires knowing the best follow-ups to the most common situations my starting word can get me into. Prior to this, I used to play a different viable starting word every day, discovering bad ideas the hard way.

I think my starting word is putting me into weird situations a lot.

Starting with a Z?? If I were you, I'd rather go WACKY, though that's not great either.

About that thumbnail, don't worry. This video is from seven years ago. @goodyearblimp is still around. The Zeppelin NTs they use now are just technically not blimps. I just took this video last year.

Privacy-focused people of Mbin and Lemmy, do any of the third-party YouTube viewers support spherical video? Someday I want to live stream in spherical video, but only if people can actually watch it on their own terms.

Scoredle says there were 33 possibilities on that guess. But, only one of them wasn't a foreign language word or a plural ending with S. WordleBot assumes those will never be the puzzle solution. However, today's puzzle solution is not one of the original 2,315 hard-coded Wordle solutions from 2021.

Today's puzzle went to weird territory. If you've seen the pre-NYT list of 2,315 puzzle solutions, this isn't on it. This combination of consonants and vowels is also very rare, especially for not containing a Q or a Y.
