I liked how this one developed with my attempts. It also caps off the 400th day in a row that I play despite lots of tumultuous happenings in my life.

Edit: Play successfully I should add. My laat streak was cut short by … human error. I had only one possible solution ad guess 6 but … mistyped and pressed enter too fast. Unfortunately the mistyped solution was also a valid word …

That's actually more information than one would think. Presumably you chose words with letters that are quite common. Getting to know that there are none of those can be quite the trove of information.

Long ago, I became disgusted with how many times I chose the incorrect word from a list of 2 or 3 potential solutions, which was when I decided to implement the spreadsheet function: =RANDBETWEEN(1,R$2358)
such that in the future, I could blame such a simple failure on chance, and not my blatant word bigotry.
