I never knew Wordle existed until I came across this thread so many thanks.....I'm playing the NY Times wordle and the Wordle website Wordle as well. They're great little thought provoking time fillers.

I got quite excited as those 1st 3 greens turned over - could it be my first hole in one? Nope! Must be a gimme 2 then instead? Nope! OK, I’ll settle for a 3.

I always do it first thing in the morning to make sure the brain is still working.

Yes 10 times got it first time.

There are over 12,000 acceptable possibilities. Specifically, if you put a random word down, you've got a 1 in 12,972 chance.

Those odds are shortened significantly if you go for a more common word as there are only a little over 2000 solutions built into the program. Still, even if you knew all the words in the solution list, the probability of a hole in one is 1/2315, which equates to 0.000432. Ok, 600-odd words have been used so far, but even if you refer to the list of previous solutions you still have about a 1 in 1700 chance.

You're getting it first time in 1/20 games (0.05) though? Any chance you could share this week's lottery numbers? :lolol:
