I feel angst over submitting a guess I know is wrong

So I play on hard mode, but take a beat now and then because of it. You're right... if the goal were to maximize chances of getting the word in 6 or fewer, one would turn off hard mode and strategically use guesses to go fishing on occasion. And I agree... that approach would require a bit more strategy and skill than just coming up with a guess that fits the information gained so far.

I do think it's possible for a skilled player to get it right every single time with hard mode turned off. I don't think that's possible with it on.
