Used the same two starting words yesterday, and was graded F and B. This time, they're C and A+. It seems a little silly to grade the starting word differently on different days. The first word I chose today was no better than yesterday.

How do you go about choosing your starting words?

(A two word starting phrase, without looking at the results of the first guess, is a bad tactic, and I'm just doing this for fun.)

I just think of a two word phrase, and then see if I can make it into two five letter words. I'm trying to keep it fun, so I don't worry too much about repeated letters, but I would also not do something with an absurd number of repeated letters like LEMON DEMON.

Yesterday, I did Wayne's World because it was mentioned in a video I was watching about Bohemian Rhapsody, and I realized I could find a homophone for it, and today, I couldn't think of anything quickly, so I realized I could just do the Wayne's World intro, which repeats the phrase "Wayne's World." It also gives me starting words for the next two days, assuming I remember.

I have a personality where I often try to over-optimize things, and I think it makes games less fun for me personally, so I sometimes force myself to make bad decisions to prove to myself that it's all just for fun.

My 4th guess was LEMON and it gave all yellows, heh.

not a great second guess

I might have been able to get the answer in three if I went with Scordle's second guess recommendation of BONEY, but that word never crossed my mind
