Could have been three, but I figured that nah, they wouldn’t. Then I thought: of course they will!
Thought I was going to fail today!

I am not good at guessing which words might or might not get used. After guess 3, I was aware of at least these three possibilities, but figures only the first two could conceivably be used.
This one got me too.

I guess so, but only because I like to be playful and pick a random starting word each day.
I try to start with something that has at least one or two of the popular consonants, but actively avoid the “best” starting words if possible.
I had seen that there were some failures today, so probably did lean more towards some of the 4+ scrabble score letters
I’m not really sure what the best strategy is. I go for a starting word with the most common vowels / consonants; approaching it like breaking a simple cipher. On the one hand, that means that any unusual words are going to take 4 guesses to get. On the other, most words are going to take 4 guesses to get! I’ve had 1 @ 5, 1 @ 3, the rest all 4.
I think it’s more fun to play if you don’t try to have a “best strategy”. I’d guess that something like RATIO is an “optimal” starting word (3 vowels, 2 1-point scrabble consonants), but I find it more fun to start from somewhere as random as possible so that each day is a doubly-different puzzle (random start AND end!)
I failed.

I am not proud of my 4th guess, especially since if I’d thought about it longer I could have come up with the correct answer.

Ugly. Took me 5 this time. Could have had it in three but there were 3 words that fit and I guessed the right one last, naturally.

This one was pretty satisfying to me, because all I knew for sure was “RO,” but I had adequately ruled out so many letters that when I thought of “proxy” I actually was pretty confident I had it.
I’d be done if I got any in 2!
