Questions
What do the colors mean?
Green is a known position. Yellow is in the word, other place. Gray is out, or extra copies of a letter you already used.
Does a gray letter always mean absent?
No. A second gray copy of a letter you already placed means exactly that many copies, not zero.
What is the best next guess?
The word, from our 5-letter valid list, that splits the remaining set into the most groups. It is not an official answer list.
