Anyone playing wordle?

Six. Three tries to get the second letter.

I was just joking around to divert attention from my five.

I needed five too. I progressively got one more green with each guess. First guess, one green. Second guess, two greens, etc.

I had FOUR! After the third, it became quite obvious.

Four

Six. Three tries to get the second letter.

For me as well, It could have been in two, then three, then four. I do not believe there is any word left after the third guess.

A 4 turned into a 5 today.

Death spore sounds very ominous! Are you okay?

Thanks for the LOL.

 

[dsmrp]

An unexpected 3 today, after my underwhelming starter word.
Followed my gut today

Spoiler

After my 2nd guess, the only 2 letter
consonant combo for word beginning
had to contain an S, so possible words
SWINE and SPINE
SWINE was just calling out to me...
In hindsight, SNIDE fit too, glad
I didn't think of it.

 

[DaveNV]

Four. Close enough.

I managed to slurp up a 6.

Three. But I sure had to run through the alphabet for that first letter.

You know those mornings when you solve Wordle quickly But you’re still irritated because the answer should have been the word you tried right before you solved it? Yeah, this is one of those. I got a three.

My daughter had lasik surgery yesterday and has a followup appt this morning which made me think LASER. Excellent! The A and E in correct positions, plus an R. I can work with this. It’s either RAxEx or xAREx. I can’t think of any words for the latter that isn’t simply adding a D or S to make it plural or past tense. So, RAVEN just jumped out at me. What? Are you freaking kidding me? RAMEN? Quoth the RAVEN, “NEVERMORE”!

 

[Sandi Bo]

With the THREE's today.

I finally got in in FOUR. I hate this word, it gets me everytime I play this sort of word game. It should be an illegal word, but then what will all those poor college students do? Yes, I do like it sometimes too.

["Roger"]

Four. I thought that I had some great answers on lines two and three given what was known. Turned out to be something more obscure.

Spoiler

 

[clifffaith]

A pathetic five.

[dsmrp]

My luck holds with a 3!
It helps a lot to get 2 correct letters in my starter. I see my 2nd to last guess was the same as many of you.

Spoiler

Out of RAVEN, RAMEN and RARER, I went with the more unusual V letter. RAMEN is quirkier, not original American English, but in the American vernacular and pop culture. It was my runner-up.

A 3 turned into a 4 this morning.

 

[LannyPC]

A 4 this morning.

Me too.

 

[Sandi Bo]

FOUR for me today.

I certainly wasn't frugal with my guesses this morning. 5

Wordle 708 5/6

 

[Rolltydr]

Four. And a few minutes!

Spoiler

I wanted to use PT in my starter and I went with ERUPT. Maybe not a good idea, only uncovering a P out of position. I decided to try the P in first position and went with PLAID. That aded and I with both letters still out of position. With most of the top row of my keyboard out of play, I noticed the Y was still there and could be the last letter, so I tried SPICY. Finally, S and I in place and the P has to be at the end, SxIxP. A quick scan of the keyboard and nothing jumps out. A slower scan and, finally, SKIMP. Sheesh!

 

[Patri]

Three, but a tough one!
