Today's Wordle
Every day I check Wordle Bot to help analyze my guessing game. You can check your Wordles with Wordle Bot right here.
CLOUT was a very good opening guess today. Very lucky. I was left with just two yellow boxes, which didn't seem great, but later I'd learn I only had 26 remaining solutions. Not too shabby! I went with all new letters for my second guess and SPIRE cut that number down to just one: PATCH for the win! Huzzah!
Today's Wordle
I get 1 point for guessing in three and another for beating the Bot. The Bot gets 0 for guessing in four and -1 for losing to me. This turns the tide of battle for the first time this month, as I leap into the lead for April:
Erik: 11 points
Wordle Bot: 9 points
As you can see, the Bot is still in the lead, but only just barely. And there's still almost two weeks left. This could go either way! I do love a close game . . . .
The word patch comes from the late Middle English pacche, of uncertain origin. It may be related to the Anglo-French pieche (piece of cloth) or the Middle English pece (piece). It originally referred to a piece of material used to mend or cover something and later extended to various contexts, including software ("a patch to fix a bug").
