@sh76 saidI'll be the first to admit that my implementation of your strategy sucks balls.
Wordle 229 3/6
⬜🟨🟩⬜⬜

I'd like to demo how my strategy outlined above works, so SPOILER ALERT! Don't look below if you want to try today's.
Started with "irate." Excellent first word because it has 3 vowels and 2 of the most popular letters. The hits weren't enough for a guess, so I went with "sound." The two guesses contained ...[text shortened]... e second position and so had to be in the 4th) and there's only one word that fits that combination.
@mwmiller saidObviously everyone doesn't get the same word, though. That's half the fun.
If anyone feels restrained by only getting one per day, the iphone app store has one called WORDUS that allows you to play more than one per day. I don't know if they have an upper limit. It seems to play exactly like WORDLE.
Apologies if this ends up ruining your life and mind! 🙂
@suzianne saidEveryone gets the same word. You can test this out yourself: try accessing from a different device or different browser.
Obviously everyone doesn't get the same word, though. That's half the fun.
For different words you can try this one below:

This one is unlimited.
@avalanchethecat saidWhen you complete the game, click where it says "share".
Also got it in 3. How do you do that with the coloured squares 'n all?
That will copy the results to your clipboard.
Then just paste it into your post.
(if you are using a device other than a computer, I don't know. 🙂 I'm using a laptop.
@bigdogg saidNo, I meant when people play these copy-cats games that let you play multiple times a day, they don't get the same word as everyone else.
@Suzianne
I'm not sure about that. I'm thinking everyone gets the same word.
With Wordle, it is the same word as everyone else that day and that is half the fun.
