I have to guess EIGHT WORDS now!?

Solving the #Octordle for Monday, March 7th.
Octordle is like #wordle times 8! You have to solve eight words simultaneously, and each guess applies to all eight words.
Check out my channel for more puzzle solving!

[@marklukmanov6156]

my favorite tactics for quordle (and octordle since today) is combination of words "flick", "broth", "geans" and "dumpy". It reveals 20 letters out of 26 leaving uncommons like QWZXJ and V. Maybe you can try it some day :)

[@jeffcatgreeb7262]

Glent, brick, waqfs, vozhd, jumpy, this leaves you one guess per word

[@SilverPh3nix]

@@jeffcatgreeb7262 I just tried that, it works so well! Thanks for that, I think I might use it from now on

Hey Scott, I think you should try Wordle2. It’s like regular Wordle, but with 6 letters

[@eboone]

Could just do Hello Wordl which goes from 4 to 11 letters

[@hamizannaruto]

@@eboone That's good, tho I like daily words, instead of resetting every reload. So wordle2 is a good way to go.

[@simonwillover4175]

Hello wordle has a daily, but its only 5 letters. However, I honestly can't emphasize with all this daily word nonsense. I am into puzzles more so than words.

My favorite thing about Octordle is that it often leads to gambling for the last letter. The list of acceptable words is enormous. Vozhd, Wafqs, Mulct, Ennui or Pizza to name a few. Although the chances of it being an abstract word is slim to none, you never know when pizza might appear.

[@nazfx2648]

[@jamesfroh5243]

Been waiting for this one :) love your videos and you should try globle next

[@a4turix507]

Or dordle and lewdle

[@JacobRabold]

my strategy is using “wands,” “clock,” “fight,” “jumpy,” and “breve” as test words, but if i get enough letters to reasonably guess one of the eight, i do that instead, but it uses all the letters but z, x, and q. it also tests for double e, the most common double letter and a double c

[@aguythephilosopher]

There’s a better way to do that. Try glent, brick, jumpy, vozhd. & waqfs. That way, you use everything but the x!

[@huntzzio]

@@aguythephilosopher Yeah, that is a great strategy... however for me, it kind of takes the fun out of solving the puzzle! And vozhd and waqfs dont really seem like words even though they are. Thats why I use TUBES FLING CHAMP and WORDY, and I may try this guys suggestion!

[@theythemnpc]

@@huntzzio i do that too!! works wonders:-)

[@aguythephilosopher]

@@huntzzio yeah it does save you a guess but using waqfs and vozhd like a 95% efficient way to beat wordle, quordle, or octordle (I don’t use it for wordle though). You’re right when you say the fun is sucked out though

[@swordfishxd-]

i used flick boxes GRAVY thump now i use flick boxes ANGRY thump

[@letstrickshot5326]

For Octordle the best starting four are: adieu, storm, pluck and bhang in my opinion. I got 6 octordles in a row using this

[@christianjalexander]

The objective best are CHAMP FLING WORDY TUBES (No repeated letters and uses 20/26 most common alphabet letters, leaving only Q,J,K,Z,X,B)

[@christianjalexander]

I never lose Quordle, Octordle or anything higher than that with that starting combo

[@drwillfulneglect]

i think the logic of common vs uncommon letters is like guessing strategies in guess who which in hindsight is kind of similar to this(guessing based off a limited knowledge pool) if you guess narrow, you have a low acceptance result but if you do, you score big but in broad guesses, you have a high acceptance rate, but it doesnt give you that much information

[@josephmarar8024]

Played a few games are watching this video and it is really fun! I always started with "pilot" and "gamer" and "husky" as third if I didn't get something after the first two. I hope you will do more of this although it doesn't fit in shorts. It's really entertaining to watch and guess along. You definitely just won a new subscriber! PS: If you want you could try and use these three starting words as challenge.

[@madeleinedamaryan3026]

im still amazed at how smart you are and how you think so clearly

[@shredded_cheese]

When you were doing the check with "exert" you could have guessed something like "treck" which would have eliminated and shown a lot of possibilities

[@Solrex_the_Sun_King]

2:27 I love how the green letters spell ERP.

[@two697]

Octurdle is actually pretty easy. As your 4 first guesses, try and use words that cover most of the alphabet. For example, 'rough', 'tales', 'picky' and 'demon'. Then you should have enough information to guess atleast 1 out of the 8 of them. After each guess, you get more information and should be able to find another one that you can guess until you've guessed all 8 ( with 1 guess left over in case you make a mistake). I stopped playing it because it became too formulaic

I'd like to see you attempt hardmode rules on Octordle. Obviously it's not possible for each, so you would have to pick one of the eight to conform to.

[@PurpleSidewalk1]

I was honestly going to suggest to you that you do the octordle today because I really enjoyed today's, but I figured it might be too late to get together a video. I was tricked by ENDUE, but managed to get it in the max. I didn't know the word AMBLE before today. Also I doubt NIGER is in the pool of words, but it's in most dictionaries so I bet they aren't checking the pool for whether or not it's a word but an external dictionary.

[@StroSolves]

I believe amble actually comes from the same word that ambulance comes from, since ambulance originally meant 'walking hospital' (or mobile hospital).

[@finlandtaipan4454]

Niger is apparently an Ethiopian herb. I first guessed it could be a monetary unit of Niger but they actually use the "West-African CFA Franc" (together with Benin, Burkina Faso, Guinea-Bissau, Ivory Coast, Mali, Senegal and Togo, of course).
