What is a Poople archive?
A Poople archive is for one job: look up official daily starts after they have already been published. People also search for poople answers or previous answers when they missed a day, want to compare routes, or need yesterday's ladder. This page currently holds 392 official starts. Each row keeps the puzzle number, the 4-letter start, the date, par, and a replay link.
It is not the same page as Poople answer today. That page only covers the live daily puzzle. It is also not the homepage solver, which accepts any start word you type. And it is not Poople Unlimited, which deals random practice starts. The archive stays with the official numbered list, newest first, so a previous answer is easy to find by date or by word.
Open a row to reveal a shortest legal climb to POOP, or open the answer page to replay that start with hints. Adjacent days sit on their own pages, so you can walk backward through past puzzles without losing the number. If you only need today's spoiler-free next move, use Poople hint instead.

Why use this archive
A useful archive should make previous puzzles easy to find, show a trusted shortest route, and let you replay the same start.
Every published start
The list is the official numbered sequence, not a random practice bank. If you remember a past start or a puzzle number, you can jump straight to it.
Par and shortest routes
Each previous entry keeps its par. Reveal the shortest path on this page, or open the answer to see every letter change.
Replay links that stay put
Every row has a stable answer page, so a previous answer you share today still points at the same start tomorrow.
How to browse the archive
Search the archive, reveal a route if you want the spoiler, then replay the same official start.
