Yeah, trag wants us to believe he routinely gets it in 1 or 2 tries yet doesn't post about those results here, even though he posts in this thread regularly.

You're just digging yourself deeper and deeper. Hit the settings button in the top right corner and turn on 'hard mode' and let's see how simple this game (and you) is (are)

Four guesses isn't good, though. You're embarrassing yourself every day. Challenge yourself and use every clue you earn each round. If you type 'nasty' and learn that there is an 'n' in the word somewhere, you are a fool if your next word is 'proud'. And if you do type 'proud' and learn that there is an 'o' in the word, you are doubly a fool if your next word is 'chief'. Use your clues. Don't settle for four guesses. Four guesses a day is for those in crisis, those with jello for brains
If I get one yellow on the first round, you can bet tootin that the 2nd word will be proud. Or whatever
