Jazzy is the worst I can come up with…I had a wild hair tonight to try to think of the LEAST helpful starting word. So far, the best (worst?) I have come up with is "mummy." Can you [-]top[/-] bottom that?
DW plays a knock-off on her phone (game after game after game...). Yesterday, using her usual 3 starting words, she showed me an "A" an a "Y", none in the right place. I said "JAZZY", and it was right! What she didn't remember was that when we were team playing a week or so ago, we had the same quandary. I remembered it, she didn't.Jazzy is the worst I can come up with…
I like that, so we're calling 4 a par? I had a birdie today, looking for my next eagle! [I have a double bogey already too, but not worse - yet]Got a 5/6 today (bogey)
Today, I ran my random word generation program to get 4 starting words (instead of 3) that had a "high coverage score" [aband, porgy, oucht, slime]. I typed in the first 3 words and had 4 unique letters, none in the right place. I thought I had a solution, and typed it in, but it turned out that it used only 3 of the 4 . So a bogey instead of par.
I think it maps to golf pretty well, on a "hard course":I like that, so we're calling 4 a par? I had a birdie today, looking for my next eagle! [I have a double bogey already too, but not worse - yet]
I think it maps to golf pretty well, on a "hard course":
1 - hole in one
2 - eagle
3 - birdie
4 - par
5 - bogey
6 - double bogey
I think there's more luck in this game than golf, though; you could easily get a poor score through just bad luck.
