My first word? Nope. It's the same I've been playing since July 4, 2023: LATER.

Concentrating only on the most popular letters used in the database of all WORDLEs, I had 2 "best" choices, the best of which would have used 4 of the letters from yesterday's WORDLE, so I chose the 2nd.

If that didn't work, there'd have been 2 more options, so I'd have solved in 4/6*, max.
