Was 4 for me as well. Do you all start with the same word every time? I've got 3 words that I can use that I reckon I can get the majority of words in 4 moves.

Shit tactics. After pacer you should have gone for a word that used a load of letters that could be your final letter to see if it comes up orange.

The bird uses adieu as her starting word, it's shite.

Adieu is useful even when the letters don't come up; having those letters greyed out limits options. I usually go for 'alter'

Take your point on the tactics, but you can also easily burn through guess on the 6 options and i just wanted a quick finish working through the archive.

Lampoon that's fair.

Just seen this on Reddit

https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful...e_starter/

adieu is officially a terrible starting word.

There's a lot to be said for the bheasty words like minge, penis, cunts, although I never use them myself as I'm obviously above that sophomoric nonsense.  I typically use 'RAISE' and 'DOUBT' (in that order), depending upon how the first word goes.

Since I've started I'm on a 10-game streak, although it's currently just at 2 coz I had to clear my cache  Monty Umm and lost the data.  But of those 10 I've had a 2 (today) 4 threes, three fours and a five.

Saw a TikTok that said later is statically the best word to start with. I usually just go with whatever comes into my head first
