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

Three again, and I’ve decided it’s really helpful if you get NO letters right on the first go.

Well done rafichgran. 3 for me too.?

Thanks, you too. I sometimes play this when I cannot sleep, I feel happy if I get get it when I go back to bed.
Means I get up late though.

Good heavens! I actually solved one at last, in 6 tries

I always use the same two first words which use most of the vowels and 6 frequently used consonants. I find that helps.

Saturday 29 January
I got it in four and not one letter on the first line and only one on the second line.

Yay, I got it in 2. smile I was lucky enough to get 3 letters all in the right place on the first line.

5 today, not pleased, wrong guesses on the 1st letter.

Tina49 Sat 29-Jan-22 00:11:59

Well done, Maggiemaybe - it took me 4 - no letters at all in first go hmm

nadateturbe Sat 29-Jan-22 03:10:26

5. Had 4 letters on 2nd go. Then it was guesswork!

FannyCornforth Sat 29-Jan-22 05:03:12

3 today.
Zero letters in first go

seacliff Sat 29-Jan-22 06:07:55

4 for me today, got all but one letter on 2nd go.

I found old earlier wordles to try here, if one a day is not enough.

Saturday = 4 for me happy with that

BlueBelle Sat 29-Jan-22 06:45:26

There’s Wordle unlimited if you want to do more than one exactly the same but no limit

Got it in 2!! Very lucky my first word had 3 correct letters

Ashcombe Sat 29-Jan-22 07:12:08

Well done to those who've all done better than me today. It took me six attempts….! Yes, “Phew” indeed!,

Hiraeth Sat 29-Jan-22 07:57:51

Woke up at 6 am with Wordle on my mind . I’m obsessed ?

TillyTrotter Sat 29-Jan-22 08:24:58

Got it in 5 today.

Marydoll Sat 29-Jan-22 08:30:39

In four today. At least its better than yesterday's feeble attempt!!!

Grannynannywanny Sat 29-Jan-22 09:17:45

5 for me today after a sticky start.

Oldnproud Sat 29-Jan-22 09:26:30

Just got today's in 2. My best yet, but almost pure luck!

Marydoll Sat 29-Jan-22 09:29:32

Well done all those who manage to get it easily.
I wonder if it is luck or is there a measure of skill involved? I play lots of word games and often solve obscure words, but I am hopeless at this!

I am very annoyed!!! grin

foxie48 Sat 29-Jan-22 09:31:25

4 for me again, also nothing in first go (I think many of us use the same sort of word for our first go, three in second go but none in the right place and then there were several words that could have been correct, just took me two goes to find the right one.
