Had it narrowed down to 3 words, really, so getting it on the second of them will suffice.

Nice recovery though.

For me only 13 of my first 15 letters were wrong dooming me to a Bogey.
Four holes into this round and I've yet to have a par: 3 - 5 - 2 - 5

About a month ago, I got stumped on a Wordle game -- the game that it was pointed out by Edgy that an unusually high number of players had also lost. (Me too.) As far as I can remember, that was the only Wordle game that ever stumped me.

Today, after playing Wordle (a three!) I notice that my stats indicated that my current streak was at five, even though it should be at least in the 20s, maybe even 30s. How does that happen? Or why does that happen?

A streak can also be broken if you go a day without playing a puzzle at all - at least that's been my own experience.
I was 100% positive that I didn't miss a game when my current streak reset to five about two weeks ago. Today it happened again. After I'd solved the puzzle, my updated stats incorrectly indicated that my current streak was at four.

I did some googling and learned that this is an issue.

Wordle Players Frustrated By Streak Resets, Missing Stats
https://gamerant.com/wordle-streak-reset-2023/

Excerpt:
Now, a few Wordle players are reporting that the game is resetting their streaks without ever them missing a day of the game. Reddit user Lady_B_FC complained that they lost a 218-day streak this way. In another post, Reddit user MGeri2525 had a similar case, also losing a streak of many days. It’s a very frustrating experience, as gamers use the best strategies to beat Wordle and show off their huge streaks to friends.
