Tuesday is here again. Tyr\u2019s Day, as it were. Tyr, the Germanic\/Norse god of war. I\u2019m not sure if Tuesdays are inherently more warlike, but that\u2019s neither here nor there. It\u2019s also, perhaps fittingly, Veterans Day \u2014 a day to honor veterans and consider the cost of our foreign entanglements. Thankfully for us Wordlers, the only war we have to fight is a word-war, or a Wordle war, rather, and that\u2019s especially true if you play Competitive Wordle against a friend (or against me, or the nefarious and evil Wordle Bot). Either way, we have a Wordle to solve so let\u2019s get right to it!<\/p>\n

Wordle is a daily word puzzle game where your goal is to guess a hidden five-letter word in six tries or fewer. After each guess, the game gives feedback to help you get closer to the answer:<\/p>\n

Green: The letter is in the word and in the correct spot.Yellow: The letter is in the word, but in the wrong spot.Gray: The letter is not in the word at all.<\/p>\n

Use these clues to narrow down your guesses. Every day brings a new word, and everyone around the world is trying to solve the same puzzle. Some Wordlers also play Competitive Wordle against friends, family, the Wordle Bot or even against me, your humble narrator. See rules for Competitive Wordle toward the end of this post.<\/p>\n

Every day I check Wordle Bot to help analyze my guessing game. You can check your Wordle score with Wordle Bot right here<\/a>. <\/p>\n

SALON seemed like a good opening guess, but today it left me with 277 words and a measly yellow \u2018O\u2019 and that didn\u2019t get a whole lot better with CHORE. Sure, it slashed the number of potential solutions down to 26, but that\u2019s still not great. And I still had that yellow \u2018O.\u2019 MOTIF left me with just two words, and a few yellow boxes, but I came up with OPIUM and GIZMO and couldn\u2019t decide which was more likely. Ultimately, I went with the word with more common letters and not with the word that had a \u201cZ\u201d in it\u2014and that was my downfall. OPIUM is bad! Don\u2019t do drugs, kids! GIZMO was the Wordle.<\/p>\n
