    Not to me. They all branch out enough for me on the second word where it doesn't bother me.

    Once I get the first word down, I just go with wherever my mind takes me. My second guesses will usually be completely different even in the cases where I have the same clues available to me after the first guess (ie yesterday and today when all I knew was that there was an 'a' in the wrong spot).

    I try not to use the third initial guess, but I didn't get much on the first two. Went stale, round, chimp.

    What's your gameplay on Quordle? I always lay down my usual 4 words with 20 different letters and go from there. Quite happy to keep getting boring 5678 games to keep the streak going. :gocho:

    (I’m not who you asked but I’ll answer for me.)

    I have three set words with 15 letters and 90% of the time play all three and go for 4567. Sometimes if I get enough with the first two I’ll shoot for the famed 3456 but I’ve only hit it once.
    Most of the time I need an extra one or two letters somewhere and hit 4678 or 4689.
    In the end, completion percentage is what matters most to me.
    If you can see a word after your first three do you still play the fourth?

    I was going to avoid putting that S in the fifth spot at all costs (and it cost me).

    Really fucked up this morning and almost cost myself my unbeaten streak. 2 buddies posted their results in groupme before I did mine. As I sat down on the toilet I checked the group and saw that. Unfortunately spoiled myself partly because my one buddy always opens with "PENIS" and I saw he got a letter correct. But mistakenly, still half asleep, I thought his S was yellow, not green. So my first 4 guesses were trying to put the S in other spots. Got lucky that they accepted "LOBUS" as a total BS 5th guess and was able to get FOCUS on 6.

    What a disaster.

    I start with Stare-Lucid then start solving. It’s put me in some tough spots, but I get a lot of 7’s, have one 6, and have just barely missed on 6 a few times. If I don’t see a fairly high confidence solve on try three, I’ll take a flyer on the space with the fewest yellows then proceed.

    A few times I've skipped the 4th word (DUMPY) but then come back to it on my 5th go if I haven't been satisfied with the progression on most words. My one 4567 would be the time I didn't end up needing it, but I'm all about playing it safe and protecting the streak. It works too - I've only bombed once in my last 40+ Quordles and that was a practice game. :wink:
