Wordle Breakdown:
Curious about how WordleBot fares against a human opponent? Check it out here. My strategy? CRATE was a solid opener, and I nailed it on the second guess with BASIC, trimming down my possibilities to just 8. But then, I went rogue with FANCY for my third guess, and I can't even make excuses there. But fear not, I redeemed myself with a lucky guess on MACHO.
Scores and How to Play Wordle Competitively:

Guess the Wordle in 1, 2, or 3 attempts to earn 3, 2, or 1 points, respectively. Guess in 4, and you lose 1 point. Guess in 5, and you lose 2 points. Miss the Wordle entirely, and you lose 3 points. Compete against friends or WordleBot to keep track of your scores. WordleBot gets 1 point for each guess it makes that beats yours, and you get 1 point for each guess it makes that you beat.
On May 6, 2025, the tally was:
Erik: 10 points
Wordle Bot: 5 points
(Note: In case you're wondering, "Macho" is derived from the Spanish word for 'male' or 'manly,' which ultimately comes from the Latin "masculus"[1][2][3]. The term has taken on a connotation of an exaggerated masculinity in the 20th century with a humorous undertone.)
