Anyone playing wordle?

["Roger"]

I thought four was fairly good, but I am bringing up the rear.

And I am behind you, @“Roger” ! Wow, I just struggled with this one. I probably sat at three for half an hour while my eyeballs shared time with Ina Garten. Then I rounded up some unused letters and got a hit and “quickly” finished up with five.

Three. I thought my #2 was pretty good too.

Me too.

Three.

And let me go on record as disliking the latest updates to the task bar. I finally had to delete the spoiler entirely because I couldn’t get it to not display the image of the solved puzzle.

You should convey that to @TUGBrian.

I had not had a problem until this morning. I do have big fingers and using my phone or iPad, tapping the smaller icons is more difficult for me than tapping the word was. This morning, I just couldn’t get the image to stop showing and I didn’t want to spoil the game for anyone so I just deleted the post.

Four.

Four, even though I was on track with my first try.

I’m back home this morning following a great week at Bonnet Creek. But, home is where the HEART is! Also where R is in 4th position with E & A looking for their correct space. I almost went with AZURE next, but tried ALURE instead. The result would have been the same with either, A as the first letter and E the last. So, I have AxxRE. The third letter has to be an O or I. AFIRE is the only word I can think of with I. I’m leaning toward O. My options are ADORE and AMORE. Interestingly, I have tried AMORE a few times in the past and it was not accepted as a valid word. I think maybe they added it recently and give it a shot. It is accepted but it isn’t the correct word. ADORE is correct.

Four. Three shots at getting the first two letters. That seems to happen to me a lot.Very much on the right track, but a bunch of words fit and I always guess wrong.

Two.

Spoiler

After guess 1 I figured there was another vowel in the middle, and the R was likely in position 4. That made it likely that the missing vowel was either an A (AxARE) or O (AxORE). If that track is correct, my possible solutions are AWARE and ADORE. (I discounted AMORE because that's a foreign word. Although Wordle allows many common foreign words to be entered as guesses, the Wordle solution set seems to use only American English words.)

Note added later. I can see now that AZURE was also a possible solution.

Four, after a weird try to determine if there was a duplicate letter.

More rhyming words for 5 Alex. I got up early for this ?

Four. Unusual word.

[T_R_Oglodyte]

I'll join the chorus of fours ....

Usual opener and a common 2nd guess with those results from guess 1. With guess 3 I got the O and E in position, and eliminated two more consonants.

Taking stock at that point, I came up with four possible solutions - TOKEN, WOKEN, WOMEN, DOZEN. Among those four words, if I guess WOKEN I will either be right, or the hits and misses will tell me which of the other three words is the solution. So WOKEN is what I guessed Though WOKEN is not what I would have been more first guess if just arbitrarily plucked a word from the list - my first guess would have been either WOMEN or TOKEN.

I used all six because you can’t take ‘em with you!

Spoiler

I started with BAYOU to search for vowels and a Y. Only found an O. Next, I tried a French word, POIRE (pear) and it was accepted. That got the O in correct position and also found an E. I deduced that the E most likely went in 4th position, so I was looking for words in the pattern xOxEx. There are a lot of them! The ones I tried in order were, COVEN, DOZEN, TOKEN and finally, for the win, WOKEN. I actually thought of trying it with my third or fourth try but didn’t remember Wordle using that tense of a verb before so I dismissed it at that time.

Two today. I would prefer to think it was due to my brilliance as opposed to pure luck, but I know better.
