  • Solving the #Octordle for Monday, March 7th.
    Octordle is like #wordle times 8! You have to solve eight words simultaneously, and each guess applies to all eight words.

    my favorite tactics for quordle (and octordle since today) is combination of words "flick", "broth", "geans" and "dumpy". It reveals 20 letters out of 26 leaving uncommons like QWZXJ and V. Maybe you can try it some day :)

    My favorite thing about Octordle is that it often leads to gambling for the last letter. The list of acceptable words is enormous. Vozhd, Wafqs, Mulct, Ennui or Pizza to name a few. Although the chances of it being an abstract word is slim to none, you never know when pizza might appear.

    i think the logic of common vs uncommon letters is like guessing strategies in guess who
    which in hindsight is kind of similar to this(guessing based off a limited knowledge pool)
    if you guess narrow, you have a low acceptance result but if you do, you score big
    but in broad guesses, you have a high acceptance rate, but it doesnt give you that much information

    Octurdle is actually pretty easy. As your 4 first guesses, try and use words that cover most of the alphabet. For example, 'rough', 'tales', 'picky' and 'demon'. Then you should have enough information to guess atleast 1 out of the 8 of them. After each guess, you get more information and should be able to find another one that you can guess until you've guessed all 8 ( with 1 guess left over in case you make a mistake). I stopped playing it because it became too formulaic

    Avoiding L is great since it could be used as a forth starting word

    I was honestly going to suggest to you that you do the octordle today because I really enjoyed today's, but I figured it might be too late to get together a video. I was tricked by ENDUE, but managed to get it in the max. I didn't know the word AMBLE before today. Also I doubt NIGER is in the pool of words, but it's in most dictionaries so I bet they aren't checking the pool for whether or not it's a word but an external dictionary.

      I believe amble actually comes from the same word that ambulance comes from, since ambulance originally meant 'walking hospital' (or mobile hospital).

      Niger is apparently an Ethiopian herb. I first guessed it could be a monetary unit of Niger but they actually use the "West-African CFA Franc" (together with Benin, Burkina Faso, Guinea-Bissau, Ivory Coast, Mali, Senegal and Togo, of course).
