A new thread! Here we go.

Chewbacca Mon 25-Apr-22 18:28:41

I can't get my ahead around the need to go on a thread; where people have been happily exchanging their thoughts and ideas about a daily quiz, for months on end with no trouble to anyone, and tell them that you can't see the point. There's no "point" to most of the threads on GN apart from the fact that they give people pleasure. That's good enough. But no one is forcing anyone to join in; the scroll facility on your mouse is there for a reason.

Agree, Chewbacca what the point of posting you cant see the point. It is a bit of fun and no competition with others at all. I just enjoy it, I do it amongst everything else I do.

I cannot get my head around the need to post your results daily on the likes of GN and Facebook. What is the point??? I have never seen anyone announce that they completed the Times Crossword in 10 minutes or similar. Surely the point of Wordle is to keep brains active and for your own satisfaction. It is not a competition.

Of course it's a competition - we're all a load of show-offs!

What is the point???

I've never actually understood why anyone would go on any thread to say they're not a bit interested or see no point in it confused

Just to add, Callistemon, my Latin Wordle tonight is hovering perilously close to your 4.
I am putting all my thinking caps on this evening before I post?

Marydoll Mon 25-Apr-22 19:50:32

I don't see it as a competition, apart from the Latin one. I like to give Callie and Ixion a run for their money. ?
However, I seem to have run out of steam, lately. I blame my Covid brain fog! wink

I have got so far with the Latin one, but I am resting my brain for the Latin one.

I failed miserably with Le Mot yesterday, better today.

I am in despair.
I finally got my line in 6 after a random stab of what was remaining (not a lot by then).
Never heard of it, not in Lewis and Short (warning ?s) and clicking on their 'definition' tells me it's NOT a word at all either?‍♀️
Can't retrieve my completed grid, click to open again and now have a branny.
Give up.
Have emailed asking what is going on. Does it now think it's Tuesday?

Marydoll Mon 25-Apr-22 21:26:41

Something strange is going on. I went to finish the one I had started earlier and it was gone.
I tried to remember, what I had written.
The new one was totally different from the original one.

ixion Mon 25-Apr-22 21:44:33

PM-ing you Marydoll with my answers to see if we do, in fact, have the same versions.
Please delete this PM if you have no wish to see mine!

Mine's odd too when I just looked at it, it only has the answer there, not the previous attempts.

I must say the answer was a stab in the dark, something I thought I'd made up.

Marydoll Mon 25-Apr-22 21:57:12

Same as Ixion!

FarNorth Mon 25-Apr-22 22:11:31

Mine's fine. smile

A magnificent 2 today!
I got 4 of the right letters in the first go, purely by luck, though. smile

Thank you. smile
I am quite pleased with myself.

I think it's the variety of words that makes it so unpredictable.
Some days it's an everyday one, other times not.

Skye17 Tue 26-Apr-22 01:25:18

Well done MissAdventure! I have yet to get a 2.
