I analyzed the twenty most popular seed words that Wordlebot listed and 3 of them(GREAT, AROSE & SOARE) yielded only 1 remaining choice. 4% of all players guessed 'STARE' which left only 2 choices. 'STEAM' yielded 3. 'TEARS' and 'HEART' both left 4 choices. Interestingly, 'ADIEU', which is the #1 seed word, played by 8% of Wordlers, was by far the worst choice on the list, leaving 187 choices.kuruman said:Wordle 568 5/6
