I don’t know if I’m the right person to provide any advice, but I can try to summarize how I approach these. Maybe there will be something useful to you in my rambling.
I’m not a single-starting-word player; I repeat starting words sometimes, but I mostly try to pick one with at least three of the common letters and one or two less common ones. This seems to help even more in the multi games, as you get more value for each letter you can confirm in more than one puzzle.
From there, I look at which of the grids got the most hits. In today’s case, C and D both hit twice. I got a confirmed position in D, so I made it my focus. I didn’t have a lot of information yet, so D was my best option to get more clarity about all the grids while still pushing one closer to completion.
After my second guess, I shifted focus to C since all I got from D was another confirmed position. At this point, with five letters ruled out and three confirmed for C, I felt I could push for the solve. Guesses three and four were made solely with C in mind.
I think it’s important to always be moving at least one grid towards completion. Once C was solved, I had three known positions on D, and roughly ⅓ of the alphabet ruled out. I pushed for a solution on D with guess five, and guess six was almost a certainty.
At halfway, rule outs should be adding up. Today, solving D provided enough rule outs for A that I could solve it immediately on guess seven. By then I had one confirmed position with two other known letters for B. Guess eight confirmed the two other positions by putting those letters in the most likely spot, and also gave me the first letter.
This late in the game you should hopefully have few valid options left. In today’s puzzle, guess nine was a formality due to there being only one word that fit.
Thanks for that through write up!
