My first ever fail, and it just doesn’t seem fair. As you can see, I had 4 letters correct in the very first line. Aside from the actual answer there is at least one other possibility, so at least 8 possible first letters. Seriously p’d off to fail like this after several months…
I suffered similar. Think they could at last look to avoid setting words which have a large number of single-letter variants. It shouldn't really be a guessing game, most of the appeal is in thinking it through.

I counted 8 possible answers if you have the last four letters. Since Woddy isn't using hard mode, he could have eliminated 4 of them on the second guess, once he realised there were too many options.

Re: #284, just worked out my wife and I had different solutions today. Googling tells me my word was moved to the back of the official NYT list and I’m not on the actual current page.

I wish to register a complaint about the ones where you can have eight different words each with the same last four letters.
