    In our wordle geeks text, someone had a boge with with four green letters right off the bat, and then 3 consecutive whiffs before guessing the right word. That made me think to not start off with a word with relatively common letters, and rule out other ones in the beginning. Not sure if that is sound reasoning, but now I'm conflicted, wondering if that was sort of cheating. Well maybe not cheating but unfair advantage? It was her fault for sharing her wordle so early right? RIght?

    I just don't want to go to hell because I cheated on worldle.
    I try and stay away from this thread and all possible clues till I get it done.

    Got to it early today

    Spoiler for birdie:
    CHEAT
    PLACE
    SCARE

    After my second guess I only had one possible answer, so the birdie was guaranteed if I could think of it. Was fast this morning.

      We have 2 family members who get right to it 12am MST and then text it right away. I typically don't spend much time on their pictograph or whatever you call it, and usually just see their guess count. Today it stood out.

      Still a little conflicted, but it doesn't matter much anymore. Second daughter just got an eagle.

        My daughter got an eagle yesterday and that is the 3rd in 10 days. She is starting to piss me off.

                  Ha. You didn't need spoiler tags for that.

                  Spoiler for but I do for this:
                  After I got today's word I was kicking myself for not starting with one of my favorite opening words: SOARE. But then I quickly realized that it would have sent me down a rabbit hole with: STARE, SPARE, SHARE, SNARE, etc.

                    It was definitely one of those words that playing in hard mode hurts. I could have narrowed it down with a word designed to eliminate options.

                        Exactly. Though in my case I might have gone with CHING.

                          Don't worry about it. You're definitely going to hell, but not because of your cheating on Wordle.

                            This puzzle was likely much easier for anyone who identified a "C" in an early guess.

                              That is what my wife did after being one letter off on her first guess.

                                Yeah, that's exactly the word I needed after my first guess to pretty much guarantee a bird. But hard mode, so I was fortunate to get par.
