This is about yesterday's game. It irritates me.

My second guess was accepted as a legit word, yet Google can't find it. Anyone know what it means?

Then, it rejected my attempted 3rd guess hust because it has only one L. Huh?

For my fourth guess, it allowed a word that means some sort of archaic boogy-woogy dance routine.

This kind of thing happens to me all the time. Just what damn dictionary does Wordle use?

Okay, rant off.

You put way too much thought into this Brent!

I never use a word I’m not familiar with. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a Wordle target word that I wasn’t familiar with, so I only go with ones I know.

On guess 3, I think there were only 2 choices. I picked wrong. Again.

Across my phone and laptop, my best estimate of my average score is 4.11 for games where I have actually been successful. That leaves out those that I've failed at, and probably has some duplicates or "experiments" from early on as well. But it's a close estimation. For some reason, my average on my phone is better than on my laptop.

Simple. With your phone you can solve it while sitting on the throne in the morning. That's where a man does his best thinking.
