The answers to today’s Quordle, game #1122, are…
Yesterday I tried four start words. I found it quick but risky, so today I used three start words, going for Nymph as a vowel-free attempt. It sort of worked – I certainly felt like I solved the puzzle quicker and there were fewer brain jams – but I still think it was a high-risk tactic. It did, however, make getting DRAPE a good deal easier with the uncommon P making an appearance.
I’m uncertain if any technique heightens the chances of a better finish, though, as it still took me eight attempts, the same result as I’m getting using the Wordle one-word-at-a-time method for the Daily Sequence.
