Today it felt like I had the ball on the six inch line and the QB sneak kept getting stuffed.

Almost the same as you, although two different starting words. By try 5 I was thinking about whether or not it was possible to go 0 for the last 4.

I did something I have never done before.  In a spasm, I thought "finish" would be revealing, didn't notice six letters.  Typed in FINIS, and hit return.  It took it. I'm still half asleep.

Mission accomplished I guess with the similar word, but I was a little shocked that it "took it."  Normally, you typo a word or put in a six letter that doesn't fit, and it won't take it.

I doubt that a French word would be the answer, but I was surprised that "finis" would be in the vocab list.

Getting tired of the game. If I found more to do to keep myself busy then I’d probably forget to play it entirely. I’ve wasted some answers recently trying to be clever. That’s not the best approach to solving the puzzle in the fewest answers. At least not recently. Maybe that will change in the future. Maybe, say, “puppy” will be the solution one day. Will that make the game more or less fun? Maybe you’ll accidentally guess that correctly in two tries. Maybe you wasted a dozen guesses trying to be clever in the past 12 days. Who’s keeping score anyway? And who really cares?

Not really but I get how I may have come across that way. I’ve had some fun playing it but I don’t think it’s the greatest thing ever. I wondered aloud a couple weeks or so ago if we’d still be playing the game by now. I’ve pointed out that I think it’s a fad that won’t last long and questioned why anyone would pay millions of dollars to buy it.

I’ve played Wordle Unlimited and solved longer puzzles up to 11-letters long. I’ve documented the feedback returned by Wordle depending on how many guesses it takes to solve the puzzle. In order to find out what it returns if it takes one, two, or six guesses to solve the puzzle, I had to cheat.

I’m running out of ways to find it challenging and I’m not sure it would be more fun if the solution to the puzzle were harder to guess. Lately I’ve wasted guesses trying to give it credit for being more difficult than it is. I recently wasted a guess on “coyly.” I wasted a guess testing “soare” which isn’t an actual word according to my dictionary, just according to Wordle. But at least I eliminated those letters (none of which, coincidentally, were part of that day’s solution.)

It’s not expanding my vocabulary. Nor is it improving my skills at deductive reasoning because once I know the last four letters are “ight” then the solution is just up to chance. I may as well be drawing letters out of a hat. Whoopee!

It's a lot more fun if you play it like it was designed-- once a day, with five letters.  You've kind of plunged into the expanded Worldle universe and yeah-- there's not a lot to build off of.

Line 4 threw me for a loop.  Also, line 3 indicated to me for the first time that if a letter is not used twice, the second occurrence in a wrong guess is gray.
