What's fun is that they live in a different state, and it's become a way to make sure we all stay in touch with each other every day. We each text Dad our score, and then he announces the winner. I get his around 6:30 a.m. and then I peck away at it while I get ready for work, usually finishing it while in the drive-thru at Tim Hortons getting my coffee.

Now, one minor challenge is that Dad, as a retired senior, gets up early every day. And while the 6:30 a.m. text on a weekday is fun, getting woken up on Saturday morning.....

Took a little while to get the hang of it, so my percentage is only 92 percent and max streak is 37 -- which ended earlier this week. I mostly get it in four.

I think this is what can make Wordle a lot of fun , and that's cool

I always start with STARE which has served me well. My success rate is just under 97.5% so I expect it to round up sometime next week, back to 98%. I had a stretch maybe 2-3 months ago where I missed two words in a week's time, which was atypical.

I've never had a streak longer than 36 days but it's mostly because once in a great while I'll just forget to do a day's puzzle. This happened earlier in the week.

On the days I remember to play, which is most of them, I play in the morning while I'm eating my cereal.

Today I had four green letters by my third guess, but it still took me six tries to complete the puzzle.

ditto, but somehow got it wrong, with words i didn't think were real. me and my big mouth LOL.

glad i don't care anymore, i keep trying to tell myself.

I can probably make some sharable doc. Haven't done that in a while.

OE: In the meantime, it would look something like this:

I want the 3's to weigh outnumber the 5's and to have more 2's than 6's (currently tied in that respect).

I play on my phone and I get a new phone tomorrow and hope I can migrate those stats so this might be where my first year history is forever located.

4 for me as well although I had none on the first try.

I got it in four, too. I start with MODEL, so I had one letter right away.
