So what are peoples current and/or best streak and win %?

I just started doing this a less than two weeks ago.  I’m 82% (9/11) and on a streak of 7. 

I’ve gotten it every day, but it treats me like a guest so I don’t see my overall stats. Is there a login I’m not seeing?

Every time you complete a the puzzle it should show you a quick status that shows your streak, win percentage and a bar graph showing how times you got a puzzle right on which guess.

It does, but it always appears as my first. I just looked a d that tab is open incognito, so it’s probably not carrying over due to cookies, etc

No login.

It won't track your stats if you're in incognito/private browsing mode since it tracks stats with cookies.

Also, if you play on different devices your stats won't track across devices.  This does open things up to a level of "cheating" so to speak.  You could use your desktop/laptop to play and figure out the word, then go play on your phone and "miraculously" get the word on your second try.

Ah, yep I would guess you are correct.

I’m a 4th guesser pretty consistently including today.

I don’t understand why hard mode is supposed to be “hard”. Except for today when I had a brain fart on my second guess, that’s how I usually play anyway.  Why would you not use the letters you know are there in the next guess?

lol yeah it’s not really that much harder. But it does prevent you from using some process of elimination strategies, like using two completely different words to start or moving letters around if you already found them in the correct spot, etc.

Today’s was brutal. My wife over my shoulder with 100 questions in how to play, even though she doesn’t actually care … key take-away: this game is for when lm pooping.

I also do the NYT daily mini in their crossword app. It’s great.

You poop on newspaper? I assumed you were yard trained by now.

I haven't tried this yet. To be clear - I have no problem w/anyone posting in a thread about wordle. I just want to let y'all know that no one on social media gives a flying F about your wordle score. I see a lot of people posting on twitter and fb - going to start blocking them.

My first time playing it.  I didn't even realize what I was doing on the first 2 moves

Me too, LOL!  I just entered random letters like Wheel of Fortune, but it wouldn't submit. 

My third or fourth time typing random letters I somehow spelled 'stamp' without even realizing it! 

Then the rules became clear.
