Question for all you Wordle experts: have they ever repeated an answer across two separate puzzles? I’ve been analysing my poor performance (wooden spoon status!) in the recent competition. It struck me that if a word is NEVER repeated then I guess a long-time Wordler with a good memory (or with the foresight to keep a record), must have an advantage. Honestly guys, I’m absolutely not looking for excuses but it was just a thought that occurred!
There are lists online, but you obviously shouldn't look at them before doing Wordle, as they often contain today's answers.
My problem is that over time you end up through using the same words as choices and then start to believe they have come up as a solution before. For example, today's word I was sure had come up before, so didn't use it on go 2. However, it is much more likely I have used it on a number of occasions now, so in my mind, I associate it as an answer.

how annoying was that. My first thought on guess 2 was the actual answer, but I veered off to something “more likely”
