Wordle #1,803, measured
This section compares STUFF'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
This score is a percentile, not an opinion. Under the site's fixed solver settings, STUFF measured harder for the solver than about 95% of all 1,907 recorded answers to date. Its rating is hard for the solver. It repeats F; the example solver route takes four turns.
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
STARE left the fewest candidates: its first-guess feedback left 22 of the 2,374 words in the site's working answer pool. At the other end, CRANE left 273 candidates, about 12 times as many. CRANE came back all gray. None of its letters appear in STUFF. The vowel-heavy probes ADIEU and AUDIO revealed comparatively little here. Vowel coverage helps only when the answer's vowels are still in doubt.
| Opener | First-guess feedback | Answers still possible |
|---|---|---|
| STARE | STARE | 22 |
| SALET | SALET | 26 |
| SLATE | SLATE | 39 |
| TARSE | TARSE | 47 |
| ARISE | ARISE | 81 |

“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.
