Wordle 1,656 3/6

-- Can't comment on streaks because I have broken them when I miss just one day or eliminate cookies (before I registered).  My current record since registering, 683 games ago, is a 98.98% solve rate.  For games solved, average guesses are 4.06. Don't know how to break out 2025 like Charles (ability may come with a paid subscription which I don't have), but I did have one game this year when I got the word on the first guess.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Connections - solved with no mistakes and got purple on line 3.

-- Solve rate over 405 games = 65%, 129 perfect games, 16 purple first, longest streak 13 games.  Puzzle I am still picking up on  .
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strands - solved with no hints.

-- 176 games played since registering, 100% with with no hints, streak 176 games, 32 with Spangram first.
