... despite being a real word.

Like how I guessed cubed with my third attempt, only to have NYT's WordleBot later criticize me for choosing a word that wasn't a possible solution!

And thanks to that NYT critiquing tool, we both know to check their list of possible answers too.

Apr 2022

... from NYT's WordleBot that many 5-letter words aren't possible solutions!

My guesses were 1. CRANE, 2.TOILS (to eliminate more letters), 3. CUBED and 4. CHEEK.

WordleBot later informed me that CUBED, despite being an actual word, was not a possible solution per the NYT's list of 5-letter solutions!

Here's their list of possible answers:
https://static.nytimes.com/newsgraphics/2022/01/25/wordle-solver/assets/solutions.txt

Yet their Wordle program obviously knew that CUBED was a valid word, or it wouldn't have registered as an attempt in the first place!
