The mistake people make in Wordle is that when they have a word that differs from a bunch of others in a single letter, they waste their 5 guesses on going through all of these possible words.
For instance, you have _ aste. It’s a mistake to go “waste, haste, paste, baste, etc ” because you’ll run out of guesses soon enough. If the “aste” part has already been guessed, what’s the point of repeating it? Instead, use a word that has all or most of the possible letters (e.g. whoop). The second and the third guesses should never contain any of the letters you already guessed. If you already know them, what’s the point of repeating them?
