Not to brag or anything, but I have been kicking Wordle's a$$ lately

Not the daily game, but the phone app which is a bit different because a lot more words end in "S". Kind of annoying.

So, I don't guess S!

My secret words are too awesome to keep secret. They are:

BROTH
CAWED
FLUNK
PIGMY

These are NOT the only words that will take out 20 letters, BUT they also will place more letters correctly the first time than any other options I have examined.

If I'm forced to play all 4 of them, that leaves only V, X, Z, Q, J and of course ... S.
I save the S for last because it tells me so little when guessed early, and is easy to fit in later. I chose the W over V for the second word because the V is slightly less common and easier for me to deal with in the end game.

Try them... you might like them!

But the game you can just play endlessly has a lot more of them.

It doesn't make much sense to me either.
