The original thread seems to be full. I can’t see a follow on so I’ve started this one ready for the morning rush. Good luck everyone !

I can't do today's one
I have 2 lines left, but it's making me fed up.

Don’t be fed up MissAdventure as inspiration might come when you least expect it. That’s what I told myself when I stopped at line 4 at bedtime. Having said that I continued on at breakfast time and made a b****up of the remaining lines and failed. I ate breakfast wearing a pointy hat.

Mine just seems to be the same as before confused

muse Sat 12-Feb-22 11:41:17

After reading the FAX, I did that too FannyCornforth. ?

Bellanonna Sat 12-Feb-22 11:33:13

4 today, despite a blank first line, so I’m pleased enough with my “magnificent”.

muse Sat 12-Feb-22 11:32:39

I do like to see others’ attempts, especially after I’ve solved it. Not to see if it will help the next day (which is impossible) but to see what first attempts are like.

First attempt today , I got 3 orange squares which frustrated me.

FannyCornforth Sat 12-Feb-22 11:19:14

muse I’ve ‘somehow’ managed to get them back smile
I followed a link for ‘the official Wordle site’ which took me the The NYT site, and my stats miraculously appeared.

muse Sat 12-Feb-22 11:16:00

There’s lots of info on stats changes on settings (FAX). Questions.

DanniRae Sat 12-Feb-22 11:12:51

Mr R and I did it in 6.
I'm with BlueBelle - I like knowing how many goes it took other people but have no interest in seeing how they did it! confused

Jaxjacky Sat 12-Feb-22 10:57:52

4 today, tricky.

FannyCornforth Sat 12-Feb-22 10:41:49

Yes, they restart.
The NYT has had a lot of flack about it!
They reckon that they are going to sort it out, but I can’t understand how they can

FarNorth Sat 12-Feb-22 10:29:29

I still have my stats but I'm not bothered if they disappear.
Do they restart, or do you just have no stats?

Callistemon21 Sat 12-Feb-22 10:03:08

FannyCornforth

Three. And yes, a lot of thinking.
But my heart isn’t in it now.
My lovely stats, gone Wordle 238 3/6

My heart's not in it now and I just get annoyed with it.
I'm glad Josh Wardle got his $$$ but it's just not the same.

It wouldn't be much fun if we didn't share with anyone. imo.

Well done Maggie ?

Bluebelle the puzzle page wants you to share so that more people become interested. That's how the concept came to be sold for loadsamoney. The pattern is just a bit of fun.

I have tried to work backwards from the answer to guess what others have guessed but I'm stumped on Maggie's starting word.......

FannyCornforth Sat 12-Feb-22 09:08:00

I’ll join you in Odd Bod Corner Tilly. Budge up! smile

TillyTrotter Sat 12-Feb-22 09:04:18

It can help as I can see if players continue to put in letters they know are right, or if they have tried a different set of letters to find say, consonants.
Often it’s consonants that are tricky to pin down as pairs of them will make correct words, but not the correct word.
That’s where luck plays a part.
Although many players strive to identify vowels first.
It’s just different strategies - and that interests me.
I know I’m a bit of an odd-bod ?

TillyTrotter Sat 12-Feb-22 08:56:09

? well done Maggiemaybe
