Almost guessed PROVE at #3, but I was lucky.

Shocked that WordleBot struggled with it! That program instead tried words with V, Z and K?!

After PROVE, I thought the answer might be PROBE or PRONE, so I decided to just guess rather than narrow it down. Actually, WordleBot said PROLE was also a possibility, so I could have ended up with a "Phew" 6.

Fri Dec 16, 2022, 08:50 PM
Dec 2022

when I check in to this wordle thread, my word is NOT the same. I started before the NYT acquired Wordle, does that have something to do with it, removing some words they thought were inappropriate? My word today is not offensive, so wondering.

My wife, different phone and NYT account has same wordle words as you all, different than mine.
