Solver difficulty, as a percentile
This score is a percentile, not an opinion. Under the site's fixed solver settings, GIDDY measured harder for the solver than about 99% of all 1,906 recorded answers to date. Its rating is hard for the solver. It repeats D; the example solver route takes 5 turns.

“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.
