The Answer:

Wordle Analysis

Every day I check Wordle Bot to help analyze my guessing game. You can check your Wordles with Wordle Bot right here.


STEAK wasn’t a great opener today, leaving me with 240 possible solutions and two yellow vowels. CRANE put both of those in green but left me with a whopping 17 remaining words. I tried for a long time to come up with a word using all new letters, but at last I got frustrated and just guessed GLADE. Much to my surprise and delight, that was the Wordle! Huzzah!

Competitive Wordle Score

I get 1 point for guessing in three and 1 point for beating the Bot. The Bot gets 0 for guessing in four and -1 for losing to me. Our new June totals are now:

Erik: 15 points

Wordle Bot: 9 points


How To Play Competitive Wordle

  • Guessing in 1 is worth 3 points; guessing in 2 is worth 2 points; guessing in 3 is worth 1 point; guessing in 4 is worth 0 points; guessing in 5 is -1 points; guessing in 6 is -2 points and missing the Wordle is -3 points.
  • If you beat your opponent you get 1 point. If you tie, you get 0 points. And if you lose to your opponent, you get -1 point. Add it up to get your score. Keep a daily running score or just play for a new score each day.
  • Fridays are 2XP, meaning you double your points—positive or negative.
  • You can keep a running tally or just play day-by-day. Enjoy!

Today’s Wordle Etymology

The word “glade” comes from Middle English glade, meaning a clear space or open area, especially in a forest. Its exact origin is uncertain, but it may be related to Old English glæd (“bright, shining”) or possibly Old Norse glöð (“bright” or “glowing”), suggesting a place where light shines through the trees. The idea is of a bright, open space amid the woods.
