Quote from: DaveBrown74 on June 17, 2022, 09:34:12 AMOn a separate subject, I have been exclusively using SERAI as my starting word for the past week or two (since I posted that article here about starting words) and have moved away from ADIEU. I can't say I have seen an obvious change in my results, although not much time has gone by since the change so it's too early to say. I will say though that I miss having four vowels resolved out of the gates. I feel like if nothing else that often gives you more of a base or "skeleton" of a word than you get by having more consonants, even common ones like S.

Of course, the numbers are what they are, and the numbers say SERAI is much better than ADIEU.
Sounds like the article you posted a bit ago.

Same letters in RAISE, which is what I use, but I can't think of many words that end with 'I'.

Since we have the same letters to start, we both got zero correct letters. Out of curiosity, what was your second guess? Mine was COUNT and it took me some time to come up with a word based on what was left. Surprisingly I was able to get it in three as well.

Quote from: Ed Vette on June 17, 2022, 09:29:16 AMI know someone who got the first letter only on his first try and then guessed the word correctly in the second try.
I wonder if it was a regular second-guess word that they use based on their first guess?

Once I had the last 4 it was just trial and error until I got the word.

That's exactly what I had to do, Bill.  Never heard of the word and I simply eliminated as many letters as I could, to make a guess possible.  This had to be the hardest puzzle they have had, at least in some time

Whoever chose this word is an XXXXXXX. I could have had it in three but I thought, no way they would use that word.

5 for me and I feel lucky that I got it at all. Kind of expected a few posts on here to say their streak has ended. Tough word today

The joke I told yesterday was so funny that,
apparently, HR wants to hear it tomorrow  :laugh:

Lol @Ed Vette

I guess this is another version of 'QUEUE' that Ric mentioned just a few short posts ago!  :P

On to a new streak

Two today.

My recent switch of my starting word helped me big time today.

am I the only one that thinks today's word is in response to the anger over yesterday's word?   :hmm:

@DaveBrown74

I can definitely see how your starting word was a big help. Same three yellow letters for me but I was able to guess it in 2 as well.  :ok:

LMAO 🤣

That could very well be! 'WHINE' would have been another good choice.
