👀 I had to take a double take on that crazy grid you have going on there… I had a slightly sadder grid art interpretation …
kermit didn’t make across the road but he now knows what’s on the other side. There’s a truck out there somewhere with a banjo hood ornament.

BTW, when I opened Wordle today I had a notice pop up that said, “Earn a new badge: Beat the Bot.” Finally! Surprisingly, today’s solve in 4 earned me my first Beat the Bot badge. Go figure.
-
What did Mr. Bot guess?
-
Same thing happened to me! And I beat the bot as well.
-
That doesn’t track… my 🤖 got it in 3 today and tied with me telling me that “we are as one”. No 🤖 we are decidedly not as one.
I also got the bot pop up announcement today even though I have several badges for this already.
As JD always tells me, the 🤖 is broken.
-
I think some of us were part of the soft start and some included only on the final version
-
Do you have your 🤖 set to “Use knowledge of past solutions”? It makes a difference in how it solves and how many turns it takes. I have it turned off.
-
Yes, I always try both when I play. It sometimes, but not this, makes a difference. 🤷♀️
-

-
I saw your accented É and wondered how that was played in Wordle, so I went to play. I didn’t know it would let you repeat a guess!
-
The É is an autocorrect when I type. I’m also surprised it allows a reuse of the same word, especially since I play in hard mode.

Wordle 1,882 4/6
⬜⬜⬜⬜🟩 RAISE
⬜🟨⬜⬜🟩 COUPE
🟨⬜🟩⬜🟩 EMOTE
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 GEODEWe got the ADD that I was thinking would happen today.
RAISE leaves 10 words. Normally, I would have played DUNCE. Maybe, it would have been better today. I’m not sure.
I decided on COUPE to play the P and the C. There has been a mini run on C’s with CRASH, FENCE and CLUNK in recent plays. Is the run on P’s over now? No I either.
COUPE ruled out all unplayed 2315 words.
So, its either an ADD or a REPEAT.
More likely an ADD, because the odds are higher.
The only first year REPEAT that fits is BLOKE(250).
The only ADDs with decent WB scores are
EMOTE(57%) and GEODE(54%)
I know that guessing either ADD would give either of the other 2. This is not true for BLOKE.
I went with the higher WB score.
Wrong!
Good ADD Tracy!

🟧🟧🟧🟧🟧STEAL, ROUND left 5 possible. DECOY, VIDEO were used in 2024, but OXIDE is old (2022). DIODE and GEODE agree unused. Hmmm, which nerd word to pick? Despite being an electrical engineer, I picked GEODE, which was correct (and an ADD).
-
I suppose had you been a geologist you would have chosen the nerd word diode?

I too still have my original records. I often do the ‘Someone STOLE my fifty dollars!’ bit whenever something gets misplaced and then quickly found somewhere obvious.

Wowzers that was hilarious and thank you for sharing. There are so many many more Steve Martin references. The guy is wildly talented and funny.

The Jerk was on a few days ago and I sat down to rewatch some of it. Cracks me up every time! Funny thing, when I was a kid, around the time he came out with King Tut, all the boys in my class worshiped him and I thought he was annoying and ridiculous. As I grew older, my opinion flipped and now I just love him.
-
And he can do this…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sovTfNH4Lag-
YES! I absolutely love his banjo playing. I was a diehard watcher of David Letterman and the first time he played on the show I was blown away! I remembered him doing it in his standup act, but had no idea how good he was. Banjoists impress the hell out of me.

I wonder how often this happens, can’t be common since s and ‘s are increasingly getting mixed up for some reason.
“Hat’s” with the ‘s is normally not correct… but here, it is.
You’d normally say “hats off to…” but you could also say “hat is off to…” and it works just fine

💐 I keep seeing AROSE do well in the After Party! So I just played your game and I found that I would have totally gotten a 3 or 4 instead of an 🦅 because there was still a NU OG (diode) and there were 2 NU ADDs (geode and emote). But we were waaaay overdue for an ADD so you played the odds and WON!! It seems maybe I’ve seen folks on here using diode or geode in recent weeks? 🤔

Maybe, it isn’t the best word to start with though.
Strategically as a 2nd or 3rd word (like you played it).
