Evolving strategies:

Prior to the NYT change, I'd use the first 3 lines to cover all the vowels and 10 consonants - sometimes this could result in an early guess, but often meant a result by line 4 or 5.

Word combos for the first three lines included ADIEU, HOWLS, CRYPT; or ADIEU, SCOWL, NYMPH; or AZURE, BOING, MYTHS.  (boing doesn't seem to work on the app tho, only on the web version)

However, with the NYT change, there appears to be more words using either double vowel or consonant combos, or using less common consonant (where there are many options to choose from).

So, I've changed strategy and now use the first 4 lines to cover all vowels and 15 consonants. This sometimes results in an early lucky break at line 3 or 4, but makes a line 5 result more likely.

Good results so far with the following word choices: DWARF, KETCH, SOUPY, BLING.

I have been using word master (as linked on the first page of this thread) to test strategies.

Anyone else using a strategy or different word combo to increase the likelihood of a result?
