Despite a good start, it was a 4 for me too.

ggxyx, gggxx, gggxx, ggggg.
 
Slightly surprising 3 today from unpromising beginning. Lucky guess I expect though I’d like to take credit :).. XBXXX BXBXX OOOOO
 
Ditto.

xxyxx, gxxxx, an all new starter found me another letter xyxxx then the few remoaners seemed to only leave me one option - ggggg.
 
A tidy 3 today after a useful start XBBBX led to XBOXO which left only 3 possibles I think, 2 of which had the same 4th letter so I plumped for one of those and guessed correctly for once :)
 
5 for me, which was apparently "Great"!

xxxyx, yxxxy, yyxyx, xygyx (effectively gxgyx), ggggg. Still a solve! :)
 
I've been away, so haven't been posting, but I've had a surprising run of 3s. Today was another one despite accidentally reusing a wrong letter -doh!
Does that mean I wasn't in hard mode like I thought?

Depends what you mean by “wrong”. In hard mode you can reuse a completely wrong letter or put a yellow letter in the same place again or an additional copy of a yellow in any place. I think you can’t leave out or move a green letter. I think you can’t omit a yellow letter entirely. The rule only says “Any revealed hints must be used in subsequent guesses”
 
Phew here too - but still a solve!!!

xgxxx, xgyxx, ggxxg. ggxxg, ggxgg, ggggg.
 
5 today so I’m not one of the phew though I see why we have two phews so far and expect more.
 
Happy with a phew today, luckily after my 5th guess it was a guaranteed solve as it looked like I was heading for a fail 1Y, 1Y, 1Y, 2G, 3G 2Y, 5G.
