I was just trying to FLOAT the idea that Wordle does not repeat the Target Word. Which Float has been already been. So the number of starting possibilites is reduced.

I'll confess that third guess was a total fluke, had no idea I would get it so quickly!

Not many options after guess #2. And Redvers, you really are showing your age there. Then again, so am I by understanding it.

Ohhhh, you meant fewer than 3 rather than more! I wasn't aware of the fact you stated, but it makes sense now.

Second line could have been a better guess seeing as the A is in the same place, but it still helped in the elimination.

It is a quite small number of people who would get it. British 1970s, early 1980s comedy that has as far as I know never been repeated. (Probably a good reason for that as it is very "of it's time".)

What a dreadful mess I made of this today. Totally forgot the yellow rules (idiot!) and farted out some pointless guesses...

New day, and once again I am undone by choosing an obscure slang word rather than thinking of the obvious one first:

I felt smug and confident after my first guess, but the powers that be decided to punish my mortal arrogance...

Limped in on 5 after a crap fourth guess.

I nearly went for the same word but didn't expect it to be recognised. (Off to listen to Half man Half biscuit's classic song.)
