Wordle

Spoiler :

Yiiiihaaa. First 2 in Wordle.

Spoiler :

T E A R S
S T A I R

Quordle in very common 5/6/7/8.

 

[CKS]

Wordle in 2, quordle in 7, octordle took all 13 because of anagrams, and Qwordle took 6. I thought I had both words figured out after 4, but I only had one, and I guessed the other one. Still, it was a good day.

Okay, it's SHA_E, could be Shape, Shake, Shame, Shade, or Share... let me try to narrow it down!

Okay, Shame or Shade, then?

S H A D E
S H A M E

Back home from our vacation, so now I can Wordle again! And today's was a triple although admittedly more by luck than judgement

Spoiler Sunday 17th April :

P I O U S

Spoiler 4/5 letters identified by guess 2... :

P L E A T
A M P L E

And for an encore, Quordle went 6/7/5/4, which apparently earned me some "achievements" which weren't fully identified, but which I also don't much care about, since they'll be forgotten as soon as I close Firefox

Spoiler Date as above... :

FIGHT
CLOUD
SPARE

Spoiler :

GULCH
ENSUE
SNIDE
HENCE

 

[The_J]

The first word I had to look up afterwards, didn't have an idea what it meant. Only got the solution because there were only a few combos of letters left, so I just tried them all.

 

[Grendeldef]

I joined that club, too and it seems like a handy word to have available. Interestingly it was also my first resolved word today.

 

[choxorn]

I took 5 and guessed an anagram of the correct word on guess 4, which was dumb, because I already knew one of the letters in that anagram couldn't be in that spot.

 

[The_J]

Today I managed in 3 .
Failed on the last word in Quordle though.

Spoiler :

There are too many GRA*E in the English language.

Monday 18th

Wordle in 6 spending 3 tries for the last letter but Quordle had an interesting ending

Spoiler :

I got 4th box on 4, spent 3 tries on same issue as The_J did, then 1st on 8th leaving the 2nd box with T U N and x x x I x. Pretty much the only thing I could think of was ' P U T I N' but as I had already used P I needed something that rhymed with P U T I N - didn't take long to get

Spoiler :

U N F I T

 

[zxcvbob]

I got one on my first guess today (not the NYT official version, but I'll wrap it in spoiler tags anyway) Screenshot is on my phone, let's see if I can get it here...

Spoiler :

 

[The_J]

I failed at Wordle despite having had 2 letters at the correct position and a 3rd yellow one within 3 tries .
Quordle in 4/5/6/9. Did one stupid guess, and one letter appearing twice nearly messed me up.

 

[Yeekim]

I failed at Wordle despite having had 2 letters at the correct position and a 3rd yellow one within 3 tries .

If it makes you feel any better, I failed despite having 3 greens on 2nd attempt. (19.04)

Spoiler :

Power? Toner? Loser? Comer? Joker? Nah... Foyer.

 

[tjs282]

Some intuitive (i.e. lucky!) guesses zeroed me into today's Wordle solution in four (honour-system Hard-mode, because — yet again — I forgot to switch it on)

Spoiler Tuesday 19th April :

P I O U S
O C E A N

Spoiler Third guess identified 2 more letters, with 2 positions correct and 2 positions now deducible, leaving only one possible answer :

F O R T E
F O Y E R

Quordle was a slightly disappointing 4/7/8/5, because as my sixth guess I tried

Spoiler :

D A L L Y rather than B A D L Y

— but at least those two gave me the fifth letters for the third and fourth words

Spoiler Same date :

CLOUD
FIGHT
SNARE

Spoiler :

KNOCK
DALLY
BADLY
HARDY
ABLED

 

[Grendeldef]

Wordle in 4 and Quordle 4/6/7/8 both in uninterestingly interesting manner. No weird words or hunting down a single letter or anything even remotely odd except that I haven't had a day like this in ages.

Meh, sometimes you lose to blind luck

 

[Hygro]

I recommend better openers like robot or epees

 

[The_J]

Quordle started good, but I ultimately failed with 2/4/7/fail .

 

[tjs282]

I am your God

Bow down before me!

(Wordle in three, real Hard mode)

Spoiler Wednesday 20th April :

P I O U S

Quordle started good, but I ultimately failed with 2/4/7/fail

Yeah, you have my sympathy. I also got 3/4 of the solutions relatively quickly, but the 4th had me racking my brain and reaching for a scratch-pad.

I needed a deliberately wrong guess to point me in the right direction, but it still took another 10 minutes to finally see it. At that point, of course, I kicked myself pretty hard (8/6/4/5)

Spoiler :

CLOUD
FIGHT
MARES

Spoiler So, "_ _ R U _" plus an "E" and one or more of "Q, W, J, K, Z, X, V, B, N"...? Like, WTH? :

PRUNE

Spoiler Oh, you complete ****.... :
