@djvail89 — for what it's worth, roughly what's worked for me.

I stopped trying to predict THE word and just rank the pool by likelihood. Top-1 is the guess; top-K is the spread. Trying to nail one word a day isn't really tractable — only one data point per day, one curator, one editorial taste — but the ranking I can score against the history and tune.

For recency I use the bins I dropped earlier — 0.005 / 0.03 / 0.15 / 0.5 / 1.0 across 30/90/180/365-day buckets. They're picked by feel. The thing I want to do next is replace them with bins fitted to the actual NYT history: for each day, look at the share of chosen words by d-bucket and let the curve fall out of the data. That's what I was hand-waving at with "empirical floor."

Signals I've layered on top of recency: word commonness (any standard frequency rank works — SUBTLEX-US, Google ngrams, doesn't really matter which), letter-frequency entropy (NYT answers cluster mid-entropy; high-entropy outliers like XYLEM are rarer than the pool implies), and the repeated-letter rate (~1 in 3 answers; the pool's rate is different). Editorial picks like CIGAR → 2026-02-02 I treat as sparse one-offs rather than try to model them.

One thing that did work for me with Claude / Chat: instead of asking it to design the algorithm, I framed it as "here's a CSV with [word, days_since_last_used, frequency_rank, has_repeat, letter_entropy, was_today_answer], fit a logistic regression and give me coefficients + AUC." 10-line scikit-learn job, the coefficients become the algorithm. xgboost on the same features usually picks up another ~5 AUC points.

Happy to share the harvested NYT history (1,793 dated answers from 2021-06-19, source-authoritative from the legacy nytimes.com/svc/wordle/v2/<date>.json endpoint) as flat JSON if it'd save you the legwork. Cross-referenced against your 39 and they all match.

On the eleven reused words — agreed it's hard to model. CIGAR → #1 on 2026-02-02 is the cleanest editorial signal I can see; the rest I haven't found a hook for either. Tracy's mentioned in passing that some days are themed but hasn't said which.

@suwayama I will come back to this in June when I have a few minutes to think about it deeper - thanks!

@suwayama Thanks! I am actually trying to build an algorithm to predict the wordle answer. So far, I'm not having much luck. I'd love your thoughts on how best to design such an algo. You use words like recency curve - and empirical floor - I had to look those words up. I can tell you that asking Claude or Chat to help with an algo is a waste of time.

As to your question on the reused words, I haven't researched what's happening in the world on or just before those days to see if something could influence Tracy Bennett to pick that particular word.

@yappinflower thanks for letting us use your thread to explore the Wordle!

You're welcome! I also want to look into this a bit more when I have a bit more free time :)

@yappinflower i am also building something like that! id love to collaborate...

@a2Fsa2k That would be @djvail89 trying to build an algorithm, best of luck to yall building an algorithm! (and yes i accidentally commented from an alt)

Data point for the algo-builders in this thread: today's NYT answer (2026-06-19) was EMOJI, which isn't in this original 2,315 list. A reminder that NYT keeps adding words outside the legacy set, so a predictor trained only on this list will miss them. (Surfaced it with a solver run against the historical list: it was the only candidate fitting the day's greens and yellows, with E green at position 1, I present, and S/L/A/T/D/N/R/Q/U/P all out.)

Peace Equalizer can work well for everyday computer use. Whether you are watching videos, playing games, listening to music, or using voice applications, customized audio settings can provide a more personal experience. Users can adjust their profiles whenever their needs change.

Safety is another important benefit of commercial vehicle tracking. Companies can monitor driving habits such as speeding or sudden braking. If a driver is using the vehicle in an unsafe way, managers can take action. This can encourage safer driving and reduce the chance of accidents.
