Wordle (Don't come in the thread until you've completed the puzzle)

100% serious

Never really listened to U2 and looking over their list of singles, I’m not sure I recognize any by name from the 80s-90s besides Sunday Bloody Sunday and With or Without You

Globle on 8 and Worldle on 2. The 2 things through me off and I guessed a nearby country with 2 names first

 

Really?? This is surprising


edit: was looking at the wrong puzzle. After going through it myself, I’m no longer surprised

 

Ehn, I can maybe understand why, especially if you're on hard mode. I got a 4/6 but I was able to play around a bit, rather than those crazies here who insist on making life even harder.

 

I’m not surprised. That puzzle scared the crap out of me once I realized that i had _A_ER and probably 100 different possibilities.

Normally, I turn hard mode off on guess 4 or 5 if there are more possibilities than I have guesses left (or I see myself falling into a hole). This time I turned it off after guess 2.

Spoiler

 

Did quordle use HARSH two days in a row?

 

Also did not like seeing the dreaded -a-er.

 

not great, Bob!

 

That’s where I was confused. It was still 1030 for me, so I was still on puzzle 563, not 564.

As you can see above, 564 nearly killed me

 

think this was the first time my usual "EARLY" opener resulted in every letter being a hit

 

5/6, and a disappointing one coming off of the first guess, even if it was designed to be caught in a trap.

Liked bc farts are funny but that’s a terrible guess lol

 

Still don’t understand hard mode. The goal is to get the answer right, not get lucky.

 

I turned hard mode on on my 11-year-old’s phone to stop him from making dumb guesses.

 

Was sweating

 

Is it terrible? I landed on the A in the right place and learned there was an R in the word, as well as removing an S and T from consideration. I try to start with a word that has one less-used letter, F in this case. So I think it was a fine starter.

 

I just meant bc you picked a plural word, which can never be the answer. Will never happen but I always go for win on all guesses

 

Gotcha. Yeah I don't mind throwing out a plural word just to see if there's an S to be found. And it's purely a guessing game for the first guess, so that's the best time to try one.

 

Yeah, it's actually a very useful starter word - as you say, it's got the whole RST thing going, which are the 3 big consonants (along with N).

 

I hate you wordle

Sleek

 

I don’t know why I didn’t think of sleep, was just wanting a double E word to figure out where that E was, but first 2 in awhile.

 

I would just like to say I got the “one in a million” award for guessing a word in quordle correctly on the first entry.
