Today’s Wordle game has caused quite a stir for many players, including myself. Despite maintaining an impressive streak of over 1,100 games, this particular Wordle puzzle has left me frustrated. The culprit behind this frustration lies in a specific pattern – the occurrence of ‘OO’ in words like BROOK or GOOSE, making it particularly challenging to crack. The latest word, GOODY, has proven to be quite the tricky one with an average score of 4.9. The presence of double vowels, especially in close proximity, adds an extra layer of complexity to solving these words. As an avid Wordle player, this pattern has consistently tripped me up, as reflected in my higher than average score for ‘OO’ words. This struggle is not unique to me, as data shows that globally players find these ‘OO’ words particularly difficult. The combination of repeated vowels next to each other presents a formidable challenge due to the limited possibilities for adjacent letters, unlike other more common patterns. The frustration and challenge posed by these ‘OO’ words have sparked a heated discussion amongst Wordle players. How do you feel about encountering these tricky word patterns?
