I still play Wordle daily with my folks. Gets the juices flowing and gets daily conversations started.
Anyway, HORSE was used like 3 days apart. I was shocked, and annoyed.
See, if I were to write Wordle, which arguably I did too (see http://curdle.me http://curdle.me) but I digress, I'd make an array of all words, randomize it, store that, match one per day and call it done. Years worth of fun.
But that doesn't appear to be what NYT is doing, they pick a random word every day? Which means that my evil plan of starting every single day with the same word might never get a N1 or I might get it more than once in a year!
- brokensegue 4y agoYou are mistaken https://wordfinder.yourdictionary.com/wordle/answers/ https://wordfinder.yourdictionary.com/wordle/answers/ Wordle answers are now hand picked each day by an editor.
- keyle 4y agoYou are correct, I think what has happened is I confused WORSE and HORSE and must have used HORSE when it was incorrect but remembered it as the solution. Thanks for the correction!
- BurningFrog 4y agoMy impression of that announcement was that the editor sometimes handpicks a word, but it's still mostly random.
