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

Same as yesterday - had a break as getting nowhere - came back and did it in 5.

I photo shoot my completed Wordle every day and so when I get stuck I flick back to see the words I have used before, especially for choosing the word for the second line.
Today’s Wordle word was chance on the first letter or else I would have got it on the third instead of the fourth.

4 again for me

6 for me. Hangs head in shame.

Personal best. 3

I can't concentrate on it today.
The old brain is on strike, so I've given up before I disgrace myself.

4 for me today

4 today..

Sunday 30th January. Infuriating, 4 again.

I'll remember that tomorrow!

Earlier, a Wordle Unlimited had an American spelling, very annoying. I thought of the word but didn't get it because there were too many letters.
U or non-U?

4 here also .

MissAdventure Sat 29-Jan-22 23:31:57

Got it at last.
6, though.

3 today. I’m happy with that as I got no letters at all with my first word.

Rosie51 Sun 30-Jan-22 00:45:12

Took me 5 today. I've never done it in one or two. I really don't understand the posts that speak of failure to do it in less than the 6 allowed. You do realise that thousands (if not more) have totally not managed in the allowed goes? It smacks of superiority to bewail doing these puzzles in 5 or 6 goes. Not at all encouraging of those who are 'failing' on a regular basis.

Yay, done it in 2, first time. I was lucky though. I had 3 letters in the first line.

FannyCornforth Sun 30-Jan-22 02:16:11

5 for me. I found it tricky today.

Callistemon US spellings are allowed in Wordle too.
There was one a couple of weeks ago, I think, that was discussed on this thread.

FannyCornforth Sun 30-Jan-22 02:17:10

Well done rafichagran!
That was good going smile

rafichagran Sun 30-Jan-22 02:27:07

Thanks Fanny I did have luck on my side though.

nadateturbe Sun 30-Jan-22 04:22:31

Six. Got nowhere for 3. So happy.

BlueBelle Sun 30-Jan-22 04:29:26

Sunday =5 and happy with that
anything 6 or under suits me but then I don’t understand competitiveness in a game like this the competition is with yourself surely

Ashcombe Sun 30-Jan-22 05:58:48

Exactly, BlueBelle! Four today for me which I’m fine with. So much of success depends on lucky choices in the first couple of rows before logic is needed.

Nannagarra Sun 30-Jan-22 06:45:13

225 3/6
Happy with that.

Tina49 Sun 30-Jan-22 07:00:58

Got it in 4 today. Ok with that.

kittylester Sun 30-Jan-22 07:02:30

3 today!!

cornergran Sun 30-Jan-22 07:12:36

4 today.
