Girl I work with in the pro shop got “Wordle in 1” a few weeks ago. Amazing luck.

I start with STORY, then ADIEU (unless STORY gave at least two hits - including the O or Y). My average is right at 3.5, including one 1. I also play Octordle where you’re solving eight at once.

    I started with ALIAS today. I use ADIEU and AUDIO a lot too. Sometimes I start with ROAST or BOAST.

      Stu1961 I start with STORY, then ADIEU

      EXACTLY the two words I start with.....Mrs. Fatshot figured out those two (have to admit, she's smarter than I am....😂 )

        I've had the same word pop up two days in a row.

        I start with sauce normally. Occasionally I'll try something different, like ounce, anything with three vowels.

        I enjoy these kind of word games like I do a fever blister. Not my idea of fun but I don't like crossword puzzles either. My wife used to be hooked on the NY Time puzzle but cancelled our paper two months ago. She said the puzzle had changed and was no longer any fun. I wouldn't dare even talk to her in the morning before she had her coffee and finished the puzzle. She now is hooked on some word games on her tablet. She used to play Wordament but now plays another one. She is just eaten up with it. I don't dare interrupt her if she has her tablet in hand.

          I always start with crane. If I only get one letter from that, I'll try shout or toils.

          I randomly rotate start words - Steal, Stale, Piety, Pious are my go - to.

          Typhoon Yeah Steve, Nick usually starts with AUDIO too.

          Nick could start with CHARVEL but there's too many letters. 😉

            Just saw a story on Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel on the guy who does the crossword puzzle for the NY Times, which bought Wordle and he said the best word to start with is AROSE.

            Never played Wordle myself. Bryant Gumbel said he starts with AUDIO. They played against each other in a game and they got to the sixth try and Bryant got the word FOYER.

              Like I said I don't know much about Wordle. But the NY Times crossword puzzle guy and Gumbel played a Wordle match and it was basically a draw and they then got the final word. If that makes any sense.

              Both are huge Wordle fans with Gumbel playing daily in matches with his buddies. If you get HBO then watch this months Real Sports and see for yourself.

              I think crossword puzzle and Wordle enthusiasts would find it interesting. I'm neither and I found it interesting. lol

                I play Wordle most days with the Fam and a close friend. It is a good excuse to pull us together. My favorite starting word is Olive.
