six tries at getting the word right..... just one word a day...if the letter turns grey it is not in the word..... etc.

3 today seem to be lucky with my first word guess.

But twice now I’ve put in a word spelled correctly but when I enter it it flashes up not in the word list, what does that mean? Anyone explain?

Only American spellings and words I think.tanith

Yea that could be the answer TillyTrotter annoying though.

I failed today for the first time - I had the last four letters sorted by my fourth attempt but ran out of goes before getting the correct first letter!

Yes I agree, that first letter was my problem Oldnproud. which one to chose.

I love the way you say “I’m nosy” Fanny. Most of us are but wouldn’t admit it ? ?

tanith, I was once really cross puzzled when my perfectly normal word alpen wasn’t accepted. Till I suddenly realised the word I was thinking of was alpine, and I was going for the breakfast cereal.

Broke my run of 2 goes.

3 today. Still ?

I’m trying a new starter word - roate - and it’s helping!

TillyTrotter Sat 22-Jan-22 10:47:56
