@trinsec My tactic is to consistently win, I have never lost :)
@trinsec I disagree, if you only have one letter in the wrong spot in the first word you should 1) use one space to narrow dwn the correct position of the letter, 2) use the other spaces to find new letters.
I've hit the correct answer on my second try a few times with only slight hints off te first try
@trinsec Repeat letters in the second word? Do you mean the letters that match or the ones that eliminate? You **Want** to repeat letters, if they are the letters that match.
The second word i will use all the clues from the first, and add in an o and sometimes y. I never use a word that doesnt have a chance of being the correct word.
@trinsec That sounds like a horrible strategy to me to be honest. Words usually have 2 - 3 vowels. So covering all the vowels from the get go will target the most letters without you need to cover them in the second attempt. Not to mention the fact that you can have the same vowel twice, so it is really important to eliminate all or most of the vowels early on.
Keep in mind this strategy has allowed me to win every single time, usually by the 3rd or 4th try.
@trinsec consonant are important, but they occur with much less frequency. First word establishes vowels, second word establishes consonants and position of vowels.
@Amikke
Well not really, sort of. Eu does have less crime overall in many countries, but this isnlargely unrelated to guns. When we look at the numbers every time, historically, an EU country banned guns or made more restrictive laws than crime and homicides would almost always spike very high in the years that follow. The only difference is slowly over time they stab you more rather than shoot you, but dead is dead when you arent allowed to defend yourself.

Another amazing deco wall dive under my belt.

Thank you for hosting and administrating this instance. If I can give back, please let me know how.
@bonifartius

@xyfdi
@torresjrjr
On my peertube account, ill share the post here later today or you can follow @freemo@video.qoto.org
@torresjrjr
Thank you, many ways to give back, but dont feel obligated
@freemo From an EU perspective it's: we don't have guns, it would be dangerous if people would have access to guns.
Then they get shot by criminals, unable to defend themselves.
@Pat
Yup
@Pat
Yes guns should be a last resort, for sure. But its good to have that option as a last resort.
@josemanuel
Yea the argument breaks down fast
@jakob
I was too when i first started diving. The fear goes away quickly after a few dives.
