Players get six chances to guess a five-letter word. Every time they guess the correct letter in the correct spot, it turns green. Correct letters picked but in an incorrect position are highlighted in yellow. The more letters the player gets right, the more information they have at their disposal, but their chances of winning early in the game depend on what the word is that day and which letters they decide to guess first.

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?
It's as much or more helpful to know which letters are not in the word, because that cuts down hugely on possible guesses. I had four incorrect letters in my first guess, but that was two vowels and two common consonants that I knew could not be in the answer. Made it much easier to zero in on the correct answer.

I just discovered this today, so I'm waiting to see if the game will be restricted only to words in which all the letters are different, or if words that use the same letter more than once — DRILL, for example, or SIEGE — will eventually turn up. -"BB"-

I opened your post since it seemed sure to be harmless, so I will tell you that yes, letters do appear twice in the same word. That was discussed in one of the articles I read about the game, possibly the link I shared.

Interesting. A kind of alphabet version of the old colored pegs "Mastermind" in which black and white peg responses showed if you had the right color/right place or right color/wrong place.
And it uses American "English" (so-called) spelling.
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

It also appears that proper nouns are not in play. I tried entering the name of a city for today's round and got a pop-up message saying it wasn't on the word list, so I was able to delete it and try a different one without it counting as one of my six attempts. -"BB"-

Yes. The answer last Sunday (Wordle 204) was Gorge.

How do we get the image without the words in it? Didn't want to post the answer

OK at the bottom is a button "Share". That copies this pic with no letters to your clipboard; you just paste it here. So I got this one in six.
I don't got no 'share' button
