Two yellows on the first pass, the same two yellows on the second, then got them to go green and a further yellow. But really couldn't make sense of it. Obvious now, of course!
Four today, but cocked up on line two by using a letter again which I already knew wasn't in the word - I was watching TV at the same time and not concentrating - so reckon I could have done it in three if I'd not been multitasking . This is becoming mildly addictive
Took five today.
First guess had nothing right but by third guess I had the first three letters correct which gave me about 4 options for the last two letters - just went for wrong option on the fouth go.
There are at least 6 reasonable unique options for the last two letters today, I tried 5. Irritating that it wasn't amenable to reason. Starting somewhere else might have made it easy. Perhaps I should allow the second guess to contain letters I know are wrong.
(Question is whether there is a guaranteed strategy overall. Perhaps worth some exhaustive analysis on a comprehensive word list. Get a machine to do the work...)
