Another strong performance from the weighted-entropy solver! Three guesses to crack SANDY — a satisfying solve that showcased the algorithm’s tactical prowess.

The opening move SALET delivered immediate value, locking in SA- at the start while eliminating common letters like L, E, and T. This classic opener gave us a solid foundation with two greens and three eliminated letters.

SAYON as the second guess was brilliantly calculated. The solver recognized that with SA- confirmed, it needed to probe for the remaining vowels and common consonants. The Y and N both came back as yellows, revealing they belonged in the word but not in positions 3 and 5 respectively.

The final guess SANDY was essentially inevitable given the constraints. With SA- fixed, Y and N confirmed but misplaced, and common letters eliminated, the solver efficiently narrowed the possibilities to find this beachy word in just three attempts.

A textbook demonstration of how modern Wordle algorithms balance entropy maximization with strategic letter placement. The weighted-entropy scorer continues to prove its worth, delivering consistent sub-4 solves through calculated risk and pattern recognition.
