I'm not sure why, but I find it quite satisfying when you and sprothy kick my butt.
All the computer logic in the world, defeated by random human brains.

I try not to shoot myself in the foot, so, no thank you.
I have thought about it though. Since I'm playing a completely different game than everyone else, playing in hard mode would require some extraordinary analysis, which I'm not sure I'm capable of.

For example, 7 of the 9 most difficult words ended in 'ER', indicating that one should never use a guess word that ends in 'ER', while in hard mode, as it nearly guarantees failure.

Perhaps if I survive to the point if and when Wordle starts over, I'll play it in hard mode, and see if it's possible.

But until then:

Wordle 1,617 4/6

⬛🟨⬛⬛⬛ STEAL remaining: 42 old/22 new/82 used
🟨⬛⬛⬛🟨 6/3/15
⬛🟨⬛🟨⬛ 1/0/0
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
I might try that just to see where it goes... :woot:

Wordle 1,618 3/6

🟨⬛⬛🟩⬛ URINE remaining: 8 old/4 new/29 used
⬛⬛🟨🟩⬛ 1/1/1
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

A very fortuitous first guess.
