Hard mode should prohibit repeat starting words.

This week I noticed that I didn't have "Paradise by the dashboard light" in my MP3 collection, so I watched it on YouTube and converted it to MP3 to listen to. Epic song. Yesterday I looked up Meat Loaf on Wikipedia.

Today I read in the newspaper that he died yesterday.

WTF

He always said his friends called him Meat. You might say he was a hail-fellow-well-meat type, and a Texan ofc. Well, West Texas but that still counts. Once on Tom Snyder I heard him claim to have played football at Texas Tech with future GB Packer Donny Anderson, but I think he was probably lying. He lied a lot, self-mythologizer etc.

Have got a 2 day streak on Wordle.

The combination of chat on here and also in work made me check it out.

3 turns and 4 turns respectively.

What are everyone's streaks?

i've played some wordle clones, and i think i got luckier than avg on wordle. but also, the word list they use is fairly small compared to the clone i think.

Estonian Jeopardy is so dumb. Everyone plays scared. They always start from lowest amount and always bet some random small amount for daily double. Scores are 140, 370 and 690. Second place hits daily double as last question of round 2.

Bet amount is

What are everyone's streaks?

I'm 2/2 and English isn't my first language
Seems fairly easy.

Say your first word is 4 misses and a semi hit (correct letter, incorrect location). What do you use as second guess? Do you try a word with 5 completely new letters (and therefore 0 equity to guess the word and not learning about the misplaced letter) or do you try a word that has that letter in it?

I try a word that has the letter in it.

It might be different if they were random strings of letters but I really think you benefit from knowing exactly where a letter is when it's an actual word.
