Quordle: what are your starter words?

[intrepidity]

What are the 3-4 words that use up the most represented letters and in spaces such that there are no redundancies?

Or, how do you approach it?

1. I start out with cranes, toils, and fudgy.

I almost always solve it in seven or eight tries, and I've never lost.

2. i like sorting the vowels first

So I start with Audio

5. Or Adieu

Yes. Get the vowels

[intrepidity]

7. I take the opposite approach

I want to use up as many letters without repeats, so i go for 1-2 vowel words. I want to find the best 4 words that do this.

I use 4 guesses just to get as many letters as possible on the board. Then have the remaining 5 guesses to figure out the words.

3. Every time I start with the same three words

AUDIO
PERKY
STING

It usually works out pretty well. I use these same starts for Octordle.

10. Taking notes...

I’m finding it hard to hit on productive combos with Octordle. AUDIO sometimes works, sometimes not.

11. I use reply instead of perky

since L is more frequent than K

[genxlib]

4. I always use..

MOUSE
TRAIL

Ten unique letters that use all of the primary vowels plus five of the most common consonants.

I rarely need additional trial words and can start targeted guessing from there.

And it is easy for my addled brain to remember

12. love it... mouse trail easy to remember too nt
