Wordle Analysis
Every day I check Wordle Bot to help analyze my guessing game. You can check your Wordles with Wordle Bot right here.
Well I got awfully lucky today. I’m not really sure why I guessed STAIN for my opener. It just popped into my head and I figured I’d try it out. The only way I could have been luckier is if I’d guessed TITAN, which was the only word left. Hole in two! Huzzah!
Competitive Wordle Score
I get 2 points for guessing in two and 1 for beating the Bot, who took three tries today. Huzzah again! 3 points!
How To Play Competitive Wordle
Guessing in 1 is worth 3 points; guessing in 2 is worth 2 points; guessing in 3 is worth 1 point; guessing in 4 is worth 0 points; guessing in 5 is -1 points; guessing in 6 is -2 points and missing the Wordle is -3 points.
If you beat your opponent you get 1 point. If you tie, you get 0 points. And if you lose to your opponent, you get -1 point. Add it up to get your score. Keep a daily running score or just play for a new score each day.
Today’s Wordle Etymology
The word “titan” comes from Greek mythology, where it referred to the Titans, a race of powerful deities who were the offspring of Uranus (Sky) and Gaia (Earth). The term in Ancient Greek is “Τιτάν” (Titán), and it was adopted into Latin as “Titan.”
The Titans were known for their enormous size and strength, and they played a crucial role in the mythological tales of the ancient Greeks, particularly in the Titanomachy, the war between the Titans and the Olympian gods. Over time, the word “titan” came to be used more broadly to describe anything of great size or power.
