Anyone playing wordle?

Phew... Like Patri, I had the last four letters on the third try. That gave me four chances at the first letter (if you include the third try). Got it on the sixth try. This is very similar to the one time that I struck out. I had four of the five letters on the third try, but with four tries did not get the right missing letter.
 
Sobbing uncontrollably. (I should be). I didn’t get it today, even though I had the last four letters on the third try. So many choices. Then when it told me the word, I didn’t even know what it meant. Of course, I do now. I just seldom use it in that form. I was 100% before today. Oh, woe is me.
Cheer up, Patri, you’ll start a new win streak tomorrow!
 
I had four letters in the right places by the third guess, but WAY too many options for the fifth. I struck out. Oh well.

Once again, my ongoing gripe that there needs to be some sort of clue. How else would you know which word they wanted? You wouldn't, and you can't know. It stops being about skill, and becomes all about wild guesses and dumb luck at that point. Not happy about things like this.

Perhaps a little button you can click for a hint, but when you copy and paste the share results there is a big notice that says "I cheated" :D
 
I have never struck out completely. I have gotten a few in six. I play different letters each time and keep reusing the same letters that are correct, just put them in different places if they are not in correct places. I got today's in four, which is my average.

Dave, it’s a word game. Have a cocktail, sit by the pool and chill out. :cool:;)
 
For the first time, I got all 5 letters on my first try today, but not in order. Got the answer in 3.

Thanks. Not the same. I like the premise of Wordle, just think when the answer can be any of umpteen different words, give a guy a shove in the right direction.

You're using the wrong test words. By #3 Paula had 3 correct letters in place and there were only 2 choices and one was an incorrect letter that had been in a test word. So 4 tries got it. She just doesn't guess.
 
Took me 4 today.

If there are a bunch of options for a letter or two I always use a throw away word to narrow them down.
 
The second time this week I’ve solved it in 2 tries.

You must be psychotic, I mean psychic! With a gazillion words that start with that letter, and you get it in two?! Took me four today.
Psychotic? I hope not! Psychic? Nah. Today, I just went with a random word on my first try and it so happened that word only has one vowel. A lot of mornings, I’ll do like a lot of you and try to knock out as many vowels on the first word as possible but I didn’t do that this morning. However, after getting the first letter correct and in the correct position, my strategy changed and I thought I would try to get several vowels with my second word. So, I just started thinking of words that begin with that letter and that have 3 or 4 vowels. That word was the first one that came to mind. I couldn’t believe it was actually the right word.

A hint for @DaveNV - I may have been subliminally influenced by another TUG thread.
 
5 for me today. I used an X for the first time in one of my guesses, which was both fun and helpful.
 
Yesterday, I used CRATE. I haven't done it today yet.
 
Ahah, I thought it was today. Tried to guess what first word you used but couldn’t figure out…:)
BTW, I can’t access imoji (other than :)) on this forum from my phone any more. Not sure why?

I would have got it in 3 if I had been paying attention.:wall: Not enough coffee yet, I guess.
 
Got it in three today. Took me longer than it should have, I think, since I had 4/5 of the letters on my second word.
 
For the first time, I got all five letters with my two regular words, and one of them was in the right position. So quite easy to get it right in three tries.

You are all hot today. Took me six.
 
Managed to get it in two today. My first word (that I change daily) gave me 3 Greens and 1 Gold. I was missing the middle letter on that first try. Yesterday I think it took 5.
 
Cliff got it in two today! His very random first word got four of the letters; three of those in the right spot so it was obvious where the fourth letter went. Then he got stuck until I told him he really needed to look at what his remaining options were. Still couldn’t get it until I suggested he say what he did have out loud. That did it.
 
I got it in 2 today as well. A lucky first word gave me 4 of the letters, 3 in the right place so there weren't lots of ways to go wrong! Otherwise, it would have been a tricky word.
