I think if you look back, we all share that one. I call it the ‘argh’ affect.

Long time no chat, Cal.

Without paging through all that is here, has there been any mention of the NYT Wordle bot?

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2022/upshot/wordle-bot.html

Apparently it didn't work at first with android devices but worked well for me on iOS. It is a programmers-eye-view of skill vs. luck, plus gives a bit of user-wide feedback on general performance each day. It prettymuch just quantitates the obvious.

I enjoy taking risk of wasting a couple words and then go for the save! An example that wasn't too punitive:

Not familiar with the bot Franco. Unfortunately I am now familiar with how it feels to miss one. 55 straight and now a blemish on the record.

Hit 3 very common letters in first two guesses, so had to use a third guess. But 4 is ok.

Quordle took me 8 today.

My britches are officially burned. I felt really good about the entries because of using 'them there' letters.
Tarnation!

Spoiler: A procedure yielding todays Wordle in 3 guesses

Any two words that contain a permutation of the top ten high frequency letters, would have gotten four hits in two guesses today (C,A,R,O). To name a few examples: OCTAL+RESIN , LASER+TONIC , RENAL+STOIC , SCONE+TRAIL , etc.
