It seems I wasn't the only one having trouble today 😃

Looks like it was quite the streak breaker. According to WordleBot, 92.5% of people got the correct answer.

What is the usual solving rate?

[–] lazycouchpotato 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

98%+

Yesterday's EXACT had a 98.7% solve rate, "based on a random sample of 1,768,632 Wordles" according to NYT.

Oh, that's a big dip. I should check wordlebot I guess, never paid it much attention.

I can't find any long term statistics on successful rates, do you know a place?

[–] lazycouchpotato 1 points 1 year ago

Wordlebot only lets me check my stats until May 14 – so 97 days in total. I'm not sure if anyone online has been documenting the percentages before this.

If anyone knows how to automate finding the percentages for the past 97 days, please let me know. I think we use Selenium for this? Probably not a bad time for me to learn it
