Got my first 9! Gotta love it when your first seed word is one of the words in the puzzle, and then you make a couple of lucky guesses. Think I'll retire now.

There must be something wrong with my guessing skills

I've already conceded that I have a flair for almost always choosing the wrong words over the right ones when either could be the one. And I know I've already voiced my opinion that the words in this puzzle and wordle have gotten weirder. But today's word 7? I can honestly say that I really didn't think it was an English word at all.

Thank you, Inca, but playing duotrigordle daily has helped my skills & scores tremendously. I've learned to consider consonant combinations in every word.

Also, differing from Wordle, my 1st 2 words are YEAST & CURIO, with L, N, & D at the ready.

I’ve never had a 10 on a daily octordle. (And I’m not likely to since my routine is to enter three words and then start looking.)

But I just got my third 10 on a daily octordle sequence

Which is …. interesting
If you want help with a meta, feel free to PM me. The more specific you are about what you have and what you want, the more likely I can help without spoiling.

(And if I help you win a mug, I’ll be especially delighted.)

Plus your 48 score is VERY impressive (lower is better), especially on a 🔟!

You have to do the 8 wordles one at a time, in order. No colors on later ones until the current one is solved.

This board seems to have gotten quiet. I just had to comment on today's word #6. I really never heard that word.......ever. Have you?
