If your win percentage is 100% then shouldn't your current and max streaks both be 51? (not implying anything, just curious!)

They reset streak if you do not play each day. I play only on weekdays so every Saturday this gets reset.

I see, I never noticed before, but then I do play every day so I probably wouldn't have experienced this yet.

Distribution? I am interested in knowing who has highest 6th place percentage.

6th place, why? - Even for you 4th place is the highest
|
|
|
|
|
Since 6th is the last attempt, it is more interesting. 4 is more or less going to be average for everyone so nothing interesting there

I wonder if that makes you luckiest or unluckiest

I didn't start wordle until the beginning of April, but I was able to binge thru all previous wordles on a now defunct history site. If I recall correctly the puzzle numbering started at 0. Today's number is 334, so if my memory is correct I've played 335 puzzles. I failed to solve 11 of the puzzles giving me a 96.7 win percentage overall. All games have been played in easy mode.

I think NYT isn’t maintaining accurate statistics. The distributions add up to 118 but the total number of games played is 123. The current streak may also be incorrect.

If you lost 5 games, that would account for the difference.
|

|
|

Yes. I went back and edited my answer some 10 hours ago to say that my failures would account for the missing 5 but somehow it didn’t make it to my original message.😳😳😳

I have a recollection of playing some game back in the 90s -- possibly MineSweeper.
Whenever I lost a game, I killed the process, preventing it from logging, so I had 100% wins.
You might want to try that.

All this IoT coding without a debugger has totally leveled me up.
I've got a guy using my GFX library, who ran into two major issues with it.
First one I tracked down took me under 5 minutes.
It was a signed unsigned mismatch buried in this file: gfx/gfx_open_font.cpp at master · codewitch-honey-crisis/gfx · GitHub[^]
I jumped right to it, based purely on a value I got back from a single call, with the problem being clear down the call stack. I actually kind of astonished the person I was helping.
Second one was today. He was crashing after hours of running. Immediately I tracked the crash and found out it was due to heap fragmentation. Not even a problem with my code. Found it in under a minute.
I'm getting *really* good at this. I almost don't even need my exception decoder.
To err is human. Fortune favors the monsters.

I've spent a lot of years doing maintenance programming (aka cleanup up issues in other peoples code) and I get exactly what you mean. For me it's gotten to the point where you read through a bug/issue report, and in your mind you can already categorize it in certain ways, which leads to having a game plan on what the issue might be and how to test it.
I may not always be right, but I am able to test out a lot of possible ways of finding the issue quickly, narrowing down where to look. But most of the time the issue can be found quickly and fixed.
There was an interesting news article today about (a Devs thoughts on developer productivity), where it talked about the 10,000 hour rule of working in a field before becoming proficient. 10,000 hours is approx. 5 1/2 years, working full time. My own belief has been that a developer needs to work for 5 years before I would suggest kicking of the training wheels, and they an be trusted to work on their own(of course there are exceptions).
Sorry, rambling a bit. But after working in this field for so long, when addressing any software challenge you can fairly quickly put together a plan on how to work through it based on a lot of hors of past experience.

I think it seeps into the subconscious; then connections are made that are ... subconscious.
"Before entering on an understanding, I have meditated for a long time, and have foreseen what might happen. It is not genius which reveals to me suddenly, secretly, what I have to say or to do in a circumstance unexpected by other people; it is reflection, it is meditation." - Napoleon I
