    OK, but how is this any kind of advantage? I.e., why would outlawing this make it harder? It seems like allowing this would waste a turn and make it more difficult in the long run to score in fewer guesses.

    Seems like DH should be a fan of this. Kind of like starting with a bad initial guess.
    I'm just saying that in periods of weakness or laziness, I've been known to reuse a letter that has been eliminated by a previous guess, because I can't think of another word. Yes, it does waste a turn and it makes your stats worse. But for those of us who run in the wordle minor leagues, it does happen from time to time.

    Oh great. Now you're becoming like DH!

    • I play by the rules of the game (in hard mode), unlike you Pharisees that look beyond the mark by making up your own rules.
      "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

        It doesn't waste a turn. It just maybe doesn't use a turn to its fullest potential.
        Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

          Well if you're a purist like DH or have the whole morning to write down all the possible words for your third try like Jeff, then it most certainly wastes a turn.

          • Is it time to rename this "The Official Wordle Thread" (or some much more clever variant)?

            I mean - 20 pages and counting. And only 4 posts on the 1st page that are about logic games not named Wordle. Just sayin'.

              Wastes a portion of a turn. C'mon dude, have some self-respect!
