Yeh. Same here. I know mine looks more orderly but it felt pretty chaotic.

Yesterday I decided to "clear all cookies" and so I lost my wordle stats. Not that I could see them anymore without creating an account.

New challenge: yesterday, I made my own Wordle solver. I thought I needed a database but just two word lists ("all words" and "possible answers"), and a bash script with some regexes and I'm good to go.

I don't have (yet?) a list of "previous answers" which would cut the "possible answers" list in half. But I'm using it with other websites, so not necessarily a plus, considering how little it could help in most cases.

I'm wondering how you came up with those first two words?
The first is apparently composed of the most popular letters for the possible Wordle solutions (I always use the same):
lett_freq.png

(source)​

And the other one was given by the program. It checks every possible solution, then evaluates the five most popular letters, and tries to find words that match, first in the possible answers found, then in the "possible answers" list, and finally in the "all words" list. If it doesn't find one, it takes only the four most popular letters and repeats, and so on. It gives only the first 10 matches.

The actual input and ouput of the program for the guesses for this particular puzzle:

FIRST=''
SECOND=''
THIRD=''
FOURTH=''
FIFTH=''

SOMEWHERE='oe'

NOT_FIRST=''
NOT_SECOND='o'
NOT_THIRD=''
NOT_FOURTH=''
NOT_FIFTH='e'

NOWHERE='rat'

19 possibilities

First ten possibilities (in no particular order):
epoch
epoxy
enjoy
venom
envoy
below
elbow
demon
olden
ebony

First 10 suggestions for the next guess:
dynel lindy

FIRST='d'
SECOND=''
THIRD=''
FOURTH=''
FIFTH=''

SOMEWHERE='oey'

NOT_FIRST=''
NOT_SECOND='oy'
NOT_THIRD=''
NOT_FOURTH='e'
NOT_FIFTH='e'

NOWHERE='ratnl'

1 possibility

First ten possibilities (in no particular order):
decoy
