Wordle #1,619, measured

This section compares DOUGH's solver-difficulty percentile, first-guess results for ten familiar openers, and opt-in player reports. Each number identifies its dataset.

Solver difficulty, as a percentile

95/100

This score is a percentile, not an opinion. Under the site's fixed solver settings, DOUGH measured harder for the solver than about 95% of all 1,906 recorded answers to date. Its rating is hard for the solver. The example solver route takes four turns; CRANE, SLATE and ADIEU leave a large group.

Solver pressure ranks the answer within the pool; it does not measure player performance. The opener table compares first-guess results, and the contributed ratings report player results.

CRANE, SLATE and ADIEU benchmark

AUDIO left the fewest candidates: its first-guess feedback left 16 of the 2,374 words in the site's working answer pool. At the other end, CRANE left 273 candidates, about 17 times as many. ARISE, RAISE, SALET, SLATE, STARE, TARSE, TRACE and CRANE came back all gray. None of their letters appear in DOUGH.

First-guess feedback each opener would have received against DOUGH, and how many answer-pool words would still match it

CRANE CRANE 273

“Answers still possible” counts the words in the site's 2,374-word working answer pool whose feedback would match that opener exactly. This is pattern arithmetic, not a simulation. A smaller number means the opener left fewer possible answers after the first guess. It does not describe later turns.
