You are an expert at guessing words in the game Quordle. Quordle is a word-guessing game similar to Wordle, but with a more challenging twist. In Quordle, players simultaneously solve four different 5-letter word puzzles using a single set of guesses. Here are the key rules: 1. Goal: Guess four secret 5-letter words simultaneously 2. You have 9 total attempts to solve all four words 3. After each guess, the word's character tiles are changed to provide feedback. There are three possible states: ✓ = CORRECT = Letter is correct and in the right position ↔ = PRESENT = Letter is in the word but in the wrong position ✕ = ABSENT = Letter is not in the word at all Each word is independent, but you use the same guesses across all four word puzzles. The challenge is to strategically choose words that help you solve multiple puzzles efficiently. A successful game means correctly guessing all four words within 9 attempts. STRATEGIC APPROACH: - Early game: Focus on common vowels (A, E, I, O, U) and consonants (R, S, T, L, N) - For each board, track which letters are confirmed, eliminated, or need positioning - Prioritize words that can solve multiple boards simultaneously - Use process of elimination: avoid letters marked as ✕ - Position letters correctly based on ✓ or ↔ feedback - Common 5-letter word patterns: consonant-vowel-consonant-vowel-consonant Help the user choose the next word to guess based on the current game state.
Here is the current Quordle game state: ``` Attempts: 0 / 9 Board 1, Solved: false, Guess Results: Board 2, Solved: false, Guess Results: Board 3, Solved: false, Guess Results: Board 4, Solved: false, Guess Results: Used & Present Letters: Used & Absent Letters: Unused Letters: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z ``` Use reasoning and consider the feedback from the previous guesses across all 4 boards to eliminate and confirm letter positions. The final_answer must be exactly 5 letters, all uppercase.
No information yet from previous guesses. Choose an opening guess that maximizes coverage of common vowels and consonants to gather the most feedback across all four boards. CRANE contains two common vowels (A, E) and three frequent consonants (C, R, N), making it a strong first probe.

Summary of known info: Board1 has A confirmed at position 3 and contains R and E (not in positions 2 and 5 respectively); Board2 contains C but not position 1 and does not contain R,A,N,E; Board3 contains none of C,R,A,N,E; Board4 contains R (not position 2) and none of C,A,N,E. I choose SCALD because it places A in position 3 to lock Board1, puts C in position 2 to directly test Board2’s C placement, and introduces three new common letters (S, L, D) to gather information for Boards 3 and 4.
Guess: SCALD
Here is the current Quordle game state: ``` Attempts: 2 / 9 Board 1, Solved: false, Guess Results: CRANE => C ✕, R ↔, A ✓, N ✕, E ↔ SCARE => S ✕, C ✕, A ✓, R ✓, E ↔ Board 2, Solved: false, Guess Results: CRANE => C ↔, R ✕, A ✕, N ✕, E ✕ SCARE => S ✓, C ↔, A ✕, R ✕, E ✕ Board 3, Solved: false, Guess Results: CRANE => C ✕, R ✕, A ✕, N ✕, E ✕ SCARE => S ↔, C ✕, A ✕, R ✕, E ✕ Board 4, Solved: false, Guess Results: CRANE => C ✕, R ↔, A ✕, N ✕, E ✕ SCARE => S ✓, C ✕, A ✕, R ✓, E ✕ Used & Present Letters: A, C, E, R, S Used & Absent Letters: N Unused Letters: B, D, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, O, P, Q, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z ``` Use reasoning and consider the feedback from the previous guesses across all 4 boards to eliminate and confirm letter positions. The final_answer must be exactly 5 letters, all uppercase.
Board-by-board summary from previous feedback: - Board 1: A is ✅ at position 3, R is ✅ at position 4, E is present but not position 5 (E ↔), C and S are absent. Pattern: _ _ A R _ with E in pos1 or pos2. - Board 2: S is ✅ at pos1, C is present but not pos1/2 (C ↔ twice), and R, A, N, E are absent. So pattern S _ _ _ _ with C in pos3–5. - Board 3: C, R, A, N, E are all absent; S is present but not pos1 (S ↔). So S is in pos2–5. - Board 4: S ✅ pos1 and R ✅ pos4; C, A, N, E are absent. Pattern S _ _ R _. Goals for next guess: (1) keep/confirm S at pos1 for Boards 2 and 4, (2) test C’s exact location for Board 2 (must be pos3–5), (3) probe S’s position for Board 3 (S present but not pos1), and (4) use new common letters (vowels/consonants) to gather info while avoiding letters already proven absent on many boards (A, E would be poor choices since they’re absent on several boards). Why STOIC: - Puts S in pos1 to re-check/lock S for Boards 2 and 4 (and will show S ↔ on Board 3, confirming S is present but wrongly placed there). - Places C at pos5 to directly test one of Board 2’s possible positions for C (pos3–5). If C is pos5 for Board 2, this could give a ✓ and make that board much easier. - Introduces the vowels O and I and consonant T (new high-information letters) to probe Boards 1–3 where many letters are still unknown. - Avoids A and E (which are absent on Boards 2–4), so the guess won’t waste feedback on letters we already know are excluded for multiple boards. Given these trade-offs, STOIC is a high-value probe that can lock/confirm S1 and C’s placement while gathering vowel info for the remaining unsolved boards.
Guess: STOIC

Current facts (condensed): - Board 1: A is ✓ at pos3, R ✓ pos4, E present (not pos5); C,S,T,O,I are absent. - Board 2: S ✓ pos1; C is present but not pos1/2/5 (so C is pos3 or pos4); I present (not pos4); R,A,E,N,T,O absent. - Board 3: C,R,A,N,E are absent; S,T,O,I are present but all in different positions than in STOIC (none were in correct spot). - Board 4: S ✓ pos1, R ✓ pos4; I present (not pos4); C,A,N,E,T,O absent. Why SPICE: it keeps S in pos1 to lock boards 2 & 4, places C at pos4 to test one of Board 2’s remaining C positions, and puts I at pos3 (a legal non-pos4 placement for I on boards 2–4). It also introduces P (new) and tests E’s placement for Board 1. Overall high information for multiple boards.

Board 2 is already S P I C _ (SPICE was ruled out because E is absent), so SPICY is the most likely completion and will lock that board. SPICY also rechecks S/I positions on Boards 3 and 4 and introduces Y as a new letter across all boards for information gain.

Summary of each board: - Board 1: _ _ A R _ with A at pos3, R at pos4, E present (not pos5), and C,S,T,O,I,P,Y,N are all absent. We need E in pos1 or pos2 and two other new letters (from remaining unused set). - Board 2: solved (SPICY). - Board 3: _ _ I _ _ with I ✓ pos3. STOIC gave S,T,O,I all present (but in different positions), so board 3 must include S, T, O, I plus one other letter (C,R,A,N,E,P,Y are absent). Good candidates include TOILS, MOIST, etc. - Board 4: S _ I R _ with S ✓ pos1, I ✓ pos3, R ✓ pos4 and many vowels (A,E,O) and some consonants absent. Only pos2 and pos5 remain unknown. Why SMIRK: - Targets Board 4 directly with the pattern S M I R K (S-✓, I-✓, R-✓). If M and/or K match the hidden letters, this will likely solve Board 4 immediately or give strong placement info for the two unknown spots. - Introduces two new consonants (M, K) that haven’t been tested on any board, giving high information value across boards. - For Board 3 SMIRK will confirm I pos3 and produce S ↔ (since S is present but not pos1) and tell us whether M/K are part of board3’s fifth letter; this helps narrow the TOILS/MOIST family. - It avoids letters already known to be absent on boards 3 or 4 (A,E,C,P,Y,T,O are avoided), reducing wasted checks. Given Board 4 is the closest to completion (two unknown letters), SMIRK is a focused, high-information play to try to lock that board while still giving useful info for Board 3 and not regressing Board 1’s deductions.

Key deductions: - Board1 = _ _ A R _ (A✓3, R✓4), E present (not pos5); many consonants already excluded. - Board2 = SPICY (solved). - Board3 contains S, T, O, I, M with I locked at pos3 (STOIC and SMIRK gave all those letters present/misplaced and I✓ from SPICE). The only ordering that fits all miss/↔ constraints is MOIST (M O I S T). - Board4 = S _ I R _ (S✓1, I✓3, R✓4); many letters are excluded there, leaving a small set for pos2/5. MOIST is the best next guess because it very likely solves Board 3 (MOIST matches the deduced letter set and I at pos3) and will give clear feedback for Boards 1 and 4 about M/O/T, helping narrow remaining slots.

Board 1 pattern is _ _ A R _ with A at pos3, R at pos4 and E present (not pos5). Many common letters have been excluded for Board 1, leaving H and D as good unused consonant candidates. HEARD places E at pos2 (one of the only valid E slots), keeps A/R locked, and tests two new letters (H,D) that can confirm or eliminate likely completions. It also provides useful cross-board information for Boards 3 and 4 without reusing letters known absent there.

Board 1: HEARD gave E✓2, A✓3, R✓4, D✓5 and H✕ at pos1, so the only remaining letter for pos1 is B — BEARD completes the pattern. Boards 2 and 3 are already solved; Board 4 remains unknown but BEARD is the safest 9th-attempt play to lock Board 1 while only introducing one new letter (B) for additional info on Board 4.
