Every day I check Wordle Bot to help analyze my guessing game. You can check your Wordles with Wordle Bot right here.
DRAKE left me with just 48 words, but I was uneasy. The 'A' and 'E' in those particular boxes leave you with so many very similar options. I could have gone with all new letters at this point, but then I thought 'What if this is SLATE, one of Wordle Bot's two favorite opening guesses?' I got lucky. Even though the Wordle wasn't SLATE, it left me with just two remaining choices. I went with SPATE over STATE and good thing, too.

I get 1 point for guessing in three and 0 for tying the Bot. The Bot gets the same score. We both inch forward to our new April totals:
Erik: 12 points
Wordle Bot: 10 points
As you can see, the Bot is still in the lead, but only just barely. And there's still almost two weeks left. This could go either way! I do love a close game . . . .
The word spate likely comes from the Old Norse spǫt, meaning a flood or outpouring. It entered Scots and Northern English dialects in the 15th century, originally referring to a sudden flood or outburst of water. Over time, its meaning broadened to include any sudden outpouring or large quantity, such as a spate of words or a spate of crimes.
