WORDLE 481 (10/13) SPOILER THREAD

Wordle 481 3/6

⬜⬜🟨🟩🟩 STEAL
⬜🟨⬜🟩🟩 MEDAL (Only 1 word remaining!)
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 EQUAL

New starter word using letters from SLATE and SALET. This is the second day in a row that my second guess eliminated all but one word! I'm probably due for a bust when the long arm of the Law of Averages catches up with me!

NYT average: 4.2
WordleBot: 4 (SLATE RANGY MEDAL EQUAL)

As soon as I read that I thought “yeah that was in my mind”.

We were very impressed with the results. We both got 3’s.
My co-worker (uses an acceptable version of Wordle) and I have a daily discussion on this. They regularly get 2 and 3 but they got a 5.

Very impressive DU. Hugh’s response below is spot on.

I should've guessed PEDAL instead of PENAL with my second attempt, which I almost did. I'm pretty sure that I would've got the answer in three attempts if I had done that.
