Took 5 goes today - found it tricky, didn't help that I lost focus half way through and put a sloppy guess for line 3!

5 goes this morning. Thought I was going to fail when my first word had no correct letters but think I got a bit lucky at the end.

Just changed the settings to Hard Mode, makes you use any revealed hints in subsequent guesses.

^ I do that anyway, hard mode = normal non-cheating mode.

Took 5 tries again today dispite getting the last 3 letters correct on line 3.
I didnt have hard mode enabled, but I have been playing that way anyway. I have now switched it on. Took 5 goes today. I do it together with my wife, it is a nice to share the puzzle.
'Non-hard' is hardly cheating as some have suggested - just a slightly different game. Anyway, tried hard today and got a 5, either way there's as much luck as skill involved IMO.

Didn't realise that a hard mode existed. I would probbaly fail if I used that !
I've got a new twist. Wait until late in the day, have a look at the matrices of coloured blocks posted in this thread, and with knowledge of frequently used openers and other clues see if it is possible to reduce the number of attempts or even get it in one. It is possible to work out a lot from Kingstepper's earlier post alone.

Got a new phone and of course all my history is gone.
I don't know why I'm sad about that, but I am.
Tricky one today, satisfied with a 5.

As said above, there does seem to be as much luck as skill involved.

I have a decent starter word that I use every time (spoiler: ROATE ). I then try to use a second word that contains common letters that aren't in the first word (tailored depending on what letter hits I got from the first word). After that it's mostly luck, as there are usually several word possibilities from the known letters.
Well, today was the first time since I started that I simply didn't get it!

Someone who lies about the little things will lie about the big things too.
Also, I don't know what I've done to my copy-pasta there! Very off today!
For any mathematicians here, in this YouTube video it's deduced that the best opening word is CRANE, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v68zYyaEmEA
Unlike the approach that many advocate of covering as many of the letters as possible in the opening guess(es) we should also consider how many possibilities that will leave.
For example, if we pick EARTH, yes we have covered lot of common letters but there are far more possible answers if some of those letters are correct. Less likely that CRANE will give us some letters but if it does there are far fewer possible solutions.
Another 4 for me today.
