Unless I'm wrong, that word list has an extra word that is never usable.

Wait what? :-). What word?

if you go to the last element in the list, you will see the problem. Each line is a word, and there are 46657 lines. There should be 6^6 = 46656 lines.

The plot thickens! I looked through my repo (as well as here on GitHub) and couldn't find the file mentioned:

I then grabbed the link of the file that you linked to, and it's definitely associated with my project:

https://github.com/dmuth/diceware/files/13847802/wordlist-6-dice-with-rolls.txt

So the question I have is: can you tell me how you made it to where that file is?

Thanks!

I generated the new list myself using a script and the list mention in the issue title since the website didn't seem to work with 6 dice.
