Wordle – After I made 5 wrong guesses, at least I knew the status of 21 different letters. Can anyone come up with 22 or more?

This is a screenshot of my Wordle game from February 14, 2022. I didn’t get it until the last possible try. But because of the five wrong guesses that I did make, at least I was able to know the status of 21 different letters. Can anyone come up with a set of five words that lets us know the status of 22 or more letters?

For those who can’t see the screenshot, my guesses, in order, were Ideas, Ought, Proxy, Black, and Women. The correct answer was Cynic. The five letters that I did not include in any of my guesses were F, J, Q, V, and Z.

I enjoy the daily Wordle every morning with my coffee.

To the naysayers, it’s a good mental challenge. It keeps the brain young. :)

I can’t answer your question, but always consider the repetition of a letter as in today’s word. Good work finding so many letters.

Follow these two rules and you will do much much better:

1: every guess should incorporate all the previous known good answers. You were 100% guaranteed to fail on guesses 2-5 because you didn’t reuse “i”.

2: never reuse letters that have been eliminated.

“BLACK” was a bad guess, because you already know the word must have an “I” and a “Y” and can’t have an “A”. Every guess should be a possible answer.

I had the same problem that you discovered, the code word is difficult and uses several unusual letters. “c “ “y” and the vowel “i”

I got the correct answer on the forth try using Earth, Foist, Pully, and cynic.

The final try was based on the letters left and how to use the vowel. I had also eliminated the “y” as the last letter as did you.

It is a good exercise, especially if you c an think in five letter words.
