Wordle

Today's find is that if you thought that Heardle was too focused on this century, now you can do four songs a day from last century :)

Was Wordle the golden Goose that died upon being bought out? I've not really heard any buzz about it since.

Eh... The earlier focus makes it a bit more familiar, but it's kinda the same problem as the modern Heardle- either you get it immediately from the first second or so or you don't get it at all. I knew the 60's and 90's ones but had absolutely no idea on the 70's and 80's ones and adding more of the song didn't help at all.

Well, it spawned a thousand variants, which has been entertaining. I still do Wordle, Dordle, Quordle, Worldle, Nerdle, Binerdle, Yeardle and PopCultured each day.

That's mostly true, yes, but at least four a day gives you a chance to get at least one. :)
 
I lost today's wordle. I had 2 yellows and a green to start. Got stuck in one of this 3 green letter traps.

I think it's now become more of a stable for many people :dunno:.

Yesterday I was saved by Civ5, would otherwise probably not have managed :blush:.
 
Done Wordle/Quordle a couple of times in the past couple of weeks, but didn't document them. Today's Wordle was an irritating 5-er, because I had 4 greens by guess 3, and then took another 2 guesses to find the right word...
Spoiler Wordle, Sunday June 12th :
IDEAS
Spoiler Grrr.... :
CROAK
BLOAT
GLOAT
FLOAT
Quordle went 4/8/5/6, because despite some smart guesswork (if I do say so myself!) for the first three, I had nothing left for the last word except all the weird consonants (Q, J, V, Y...), and I just could not figure out the answer until after making a knowingly wrong guess
Spoiler :
EIGHT
CLOUD
SWARM
Spoiler :
S _ _ R _ plus I, H, ? = SHIRK
_ _ I _ _ plus O, E, ?, ? = OPINE
_ _ _ _ E plus L, A, ?, ? = FABLE
_ _ A _ _ plus G, U, ?, ? =/= GAUZY
G _ A _ _ plus U, ?, ? = GUAVA

The thread name reminds me of "Ye orlde Worlde" Aiiiiii that's what me thinks it is ! Ye shall not make fun of Ye olde worlde or thou shall burn in hell - I though the colonists run from that kind of rabble to a new continent in a first place, but look Ye here , it is still persistant xD So nice of the old ghosts to be here ! Old ghosts : You , You , the old Ghosts ! Now that You are properly intoduced , behave !
 
Merriam-Webster thinks it's an English word.
American English, maybe... ;)

Got today's in 4 (on honorary Hard Mode): my third guess was a known false, but was also the only word which occurred to me that sort-of-fit my first two guesses and tested 3 different additional letters. Needless to say, there was a more obvious possibility, which did not occur to me until afterwards...
Spoiler Thursday June 16th :
I D E A S
M A R C H :hmm: ... :think: ... :dunno:
Spoiler :
B O R A X :cringe:
Spoiler And the winner is... :
A P R O N :blush:
Quordle was also another 5/8/6/4. For the last solution, I still only had 4 yellows after Guess 6, with (at least) 2 possible anagrams based on what I knew, and I jumped the wrong way
Spoiler :
MINTS
PEACH
GOURD
Spoiler :
_ _ A R _ plus S, P, ? = SPARK
_ O _ _ _ plus S, E, R, ? = LOSER
_ I _ E R plus ?, ? = FIXER
T, A, O, L, ? ≠ ATOLL = ALLOT
 
I got the quordle in 4/6/9/5

Spoiler :
Same _ I _ E R as you, but I guessed "Wider" and "Fiver" before "Fixer"
 
Took me 6 to get today's

Spoiler :
Double letters are always hard and "Cacao" is a really tricky one to come up with
 
Today's Wordle was really fiendish, I agree!
