How on earth have you managed to get an average of 3.44 when starting with words as bad as today's?! I mean, it's obviously the right word, but thinking about tactics (and trying not to give any spoilers), it's a really bad first guess.

A better than 1 in 20 hit rate for holes in one is pretty spectacular considering the odds are about 1 in 2500 (depending on which source regarding how many words are in the Wordle database you look at).

Any chance you can let everyone know Saturday's lottery numbers? :lolol:

140/36 = 3.89 avg

One of those days where you sacrifice fewest letters for keeping the run going.

I think James Randi must be turning in his grave.

There are no rules to Wordle so cheating is not possible..........................each to their own :shrug:

The first rule of Wordle; is don't talk about Wordle.
The second rule of Wordle; is don't talk about Wordle.
The third rule of Worldle; if someone yells stop, goes limp, or taps out, then Wordle is over.

3 holes in one from 50-odd guesses is remarkable. I've bagged one from nearly 100.

Very happy with a 3 today. I'm desperately trying to stay out of the comments regarding statistical probabilities - I will get myself into a lot of trouble :)

Three holes in one in 57 goes is achieved, according to your odds, by one person in 274,122,807.

Mrs T just muttered 'I smell bullshit' :lolol:

Mellotron said in the middle of January that it would be interesting to see a table of players averages and I took it upon myself to produce a daily league table. I have kept quiet about some of the dubious posts that have been put up, a good example is the one from Trigaaar a few days ago that suddenly appeared with an average of 3.42 that took them to the top of the table instantly, there has not been an update for five days.

I see players constantly posting 2's and 3's every day, some have even mentioned that they saw something on the internet that day and scored a 2. I believe that there are far too many people who have legitimately scored a one considering the unlikely possibility of it happening.

This post might annoy some people but I just thought it was time that I put across my feelings.
