Apparently after my first 3 guesses there was only one remaining possibility!

I played badly for this one — spamming non-sense words

I should have gotten it in 2. The word I guessed second is probably not ever an answer, and it took me an hour of on-and-off thinking to even come up with it. I should have just thought of the correct answer instead.

What was your first word?

AUDIO

you still had: wedge, elder, ledge, hedge, teddy consistent with your first guess

and interestingly, if you play trawl (?!) as your second guess, you then know the answer for sure

Well, I play hard mode so that wouldn’t be allowed. But yes there are a bunch of words I failed to think of

In hard mode, elder is indeed the optimal second choice, so you were right!

Ah, nope, sorry, it’s wedel (whatever that means), which also partitions the remaining words entirely. Can’t really blame you on this one though :smile:

(min 2 (most-positive-fixnum)) ?

That’s an idea, though it feels too hacky/C-ish to me

Currently I used (inexact->exact (min 2 +inf.0)) but that’s not ideal either anyway

is this just the wordle channel now

And we can’t even say that Wordle is #random, since the sequence is predetermined…

I think I have (in the past) aliased that to exact-min

I also use something like (if current-min (min current-min v) v) and use current-min initialized to #f in a for/fold context
