Flashback is really cool, because it gives feedback, including this article about The Tale of Gengi.

I'm really bad with history, but much to my surprise, I did well.

I also beat the bot by half a guess today.

Wordle 948 3/6*

🟩🟨⬜⬜⬜    SLOPE
🟩⬜🟨🟨⬜    SALTY
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩   STILL

They measure skill and luck, but they don't measure intuition. I use  a different starting word each day, just whatever comes to me. It seems to work more often than not.

Not sure I'll finish Connections today. I guessed the yellow and purple but the blue and green are so similar to each other that it just seems like an economic word soup.

Well, if it helps, that impression is deceptive.
