    If tomorrow’s word on the UK site is caulk, I’m going to have to just accept the lost stats and move.

    I’m still on the old Wordle. Today’s word is aroma. Agora was a shitty choice of words yesterday

    Very possible. Also very possible that they wanted to fuck with the Americans who were still using their version.

    Took all 6 guesses for AGORA. I’ve never heard that word used on its own in conversation (agoraphobia, yes, but not agora), so I actually thought I was going to whiff.

    Yeah, it moved my stats so most everything is good.
    The only real issue is that when I type “wordle” into my browser, only this thread comes up in bookmarks and history. I need to type “New York times” to get wordle to come up.

    NYT has me resetting back to 36/36 every day. The last 3-4 days the puzzle gets me to 37/37 and it has not gone up since.

    Saw 'caulk' trending on Twitter and it's the first time I've seen the Wordle word trending like that and there are just a bunch of people who have no idea what caulk is and that blows my mind. My dad is far from "handy" but I still remember helping him caulk stuff in our bathrooms growing up.

    I've only been switched to color blind mode for a couple puzzles now and forgot that orange was meant they were in the right position until guess 3. :facepalm:
    Definition of failing to success though.

    right, I knew the vowels would be there, so nothing gained in my mind. I just didn’t think it would end in a ‘k’ and I didn’t feel great about it starting in a ‘c’

    Got SHAME on my second word and saw there were at least 4 different possibilities for that 4th letter, so deliberately sacrificed a guess to identify the answer (K). Me clever. :golfclap:

    Shit, didn't even see SHAVE. :shocked:

    Yes and no - if those 3 letters bombed out, then I was coming up with a different word with the last few options, which guaranteed I would get it on 5/6.

    So yeah, a bit lucky it came up in DRAKE but it just meant 4 instead of 5. :gocho:
