I didn't know until a couple of post up there was a competition.
I don't know how long - I wasn't hurrying or counting. Is that part of it, too?

You don't have to compete if you don't want. It just adds a little fun to me. I'm interested in your results, regardless, and can resist the urge to :thumbdown: or :P .

No offense taken. Competing for solution is fine, but I probably won't pay much attention to time. Adds unnecessary stress to an otherwise fun little word game. I don't time crosswords, either. However, I might post times anyway for your enjoyment and opportunity to rag as applicable.

Either way. Competing solely for number of steps is also fine. It just means more ties. I could not do it with crosswords. They are my Ambien and it might take me several days to finish one depending on difficulty and how fast I've fallen asleep.

2 minutes. I got lucky, there were a bunch of valid options for 3/6. I just went with the first I thought of.

I credit neoplacebo's mojo. I switched things up and started with 'stomp'. :D
A 2/6 and three 3/6s is a pretty good run.

That's impressive that you pulled it off at 4/6 with nothing to go on except eliminated letters, but you and the Wordle World are going to hate me.

Holy crap. I knew there was no way the word would work and even thought that I was half-wasting a chance to eliminate more letters, but it did work. Our first double double letter. Still waiting for that full house.
