The_Emu_Army on September 20, 2025 4:25 pm 1 is pure luck 2 is mostly luck 3 is mostly skill (and an easy word) or mostly luck (for a hard word.) 4 is mostly skill (for a hard word like VYING) or average for an easy word 5 is a hard word and bad luck, or dumb play 6 is “phew” and a sign you didn’t use turn 3 or 4 to test some letters I always did well against the NYT average, but then NYT put a paywall on the bot. I was quite offended considering I’m a NYT subscriber.

I read somewhere that if wordle was golf then 4 would be par.
Some might say it’s a normal distribution.
Looks like you’re flippin us the bird
They need an additional category for DNF
seems pretty normal to me
1 is pure luck
2 is mostly luck
3 is mostly skill (and an easy word) or mostly luck (for a hard word.)
4 is mostly skill (for a hard word like VYING) or average for an easy word
5 is a hard word and bad luck, or dumb play
6 is “phew” and a sign you didn’t use turn 3 or 4 to test some letters
