    3 for me. It took me ages to think of a word using the three incorrectly positioned letters and two unused ones, but luckily it was right.

    I reckon the game requires 60% luck, 40% skill.

    I think there is an element of luck involved but you need to be clever with your choices initially to uncover vowels etc.

    I'd say it is more skill than luck personally.

    I think luck is needed to get it in 2.

    A lot of luck and also gambled that it may take a similar form to yesterday’s word

    Definitely. Skill for 3 and then 4 seems to be par by looks of what I and most others on here tend to hit perhaps?

    My track record would suggest I either get it in 3, or it's next most likely to be 5. Never had a 6 yet though.

    Definitely. It doesn't matter how 'clever' your first choice is, you can still get no matches from it, which then makes getting it in two as impossible as getting it in one.
