Took all six. But I was incredibly dumb and two of guesses had letters where I KNEW THE LETTERS DIDNT GO THERE. Wife said I was dumb.
This is freaking awesome. The adieu tip is a game changer. Edit: Apparently ROATE is a word that is really good to start with as well. Says google.
I believe RAISE is the next “best” one as it is also in the answer pool where ROATE is not. Today took me 5.
4 as well. I was an idiot and reused a letter I knew was wrong in my second guess. If I hadn’t done that the word I would have used for my second would have given me a decent shot at 3.
I read an article where a programmer was trying to find the best starting word, and that’s what I took from it. There are significantly more words that it recognizes than words that can actually be correct answers That’s also where I read that ROATE and RAISE were the best starters
