I thought maybe guess #3 wasn’t the best…altho I checked wordle bot (for the first time ever), and it said my third guess was the best possible (and left only one possible solution).

I found what I think is a bug in Strands today. Due to the letter arrangements, I found one of the words early on, but in a different grouping in the puzzle. I submitted it and it went in as a Hint candidate. Slogging on, I got all the way to the last word and found it was the same word but in a different area; since I had already "found" the word, it doesn't let me submit it and complete the puzzle. If that is a design point, I think it is needlessly restrictive. I am going to try to report it.

Edit: Actually, I'm not. Upon study, I see that the word I found and submitted creates an orphan of three letters in a corner, so it is not a reasonable word to submit. I guess I need to be careful when noodling around at the start of a puzzle.

That's got to be a pretty unusual situation. I've seen a couple puzzles where the same word can be found in a couple different ways, but in the puzzle, that word has always been part of a multi-word spangram. Only the correct solution gets you to the second word. It always seemed to me that they were pretty careful about that.

Beauty is in the eye of the solver, and I think it's beautiful.
