Wordle for December 17, 2024 - #1277
Attempt 1
This is the first attempt and we’ll choose a random word to start with.
Let’s start with word mpret
Attempt for mpret gives us 0 correct letters, 0 present letters and 5 wrong letters.
If we look into details, we can see that:
Letter m is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter p is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter r is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter e is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter t is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Some letters are missing (like m, p, r, e, t) but it’s also important piece of information
So far we don’t know any of the letters!
Not a bad guess in general
Attempt 2
Right now we have 1251 words to choose from and best of them seem to be [nodal nidal laund ulnad bland]
So far we know that possible letters are:
At position 1: [a b c d f g h i j k l n o q s u v w x y z]
At position 2: [a b c d f g h i j k l n o q s u v w x y z]
At position 3: [a b c d f g h i j k l n o q s u v w x y z]
At position 4: [a b c d f g h i j k l n o q s u v w x y z]
At position 5: [a b c d f g h i j k l n o q s u v w x y z]
Next guess is bland, let’s see what it gives us
Attempt for bland gives us 0 correct letters, 1 present letters and 4 wrong letters.
If we look into details, we can see that:
Letter b is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter l is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 2
Letter a is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter n is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter d is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Some letters are missing (like b, a, n, d) but it’s also important piece of information
Word should contain letters [l]
That was a great guess that limited number of remaining words
