Anyone playing wordle?

Took all 6 for me! Good, but tough, word.

Spoiler

I tried to identify vowels with my first word, AUDIO. That never seems to work for me and only got the O in the wrong position. WROTE quickly got the O and E correct. CLONE did nothing bu eliminate 3 more letters. I thought it likely the 4th letter was an S but wasn’t sure yet so I went with SHOVE to see if S was a missing letter but also thinking it could very well be the word. I was half right. From there, I thought it had to be double O‘s and it was just a matter of identifying the right animal.

It also took me six, and Rick had the same number of tries that I did.

All six today.

5 for me today. I had similar reasoning as @Rolltydr at the end.

Spoiler

I thought it was goose or moose, but went with my favorite animal first
I really liked my 3rd guess but it wasn't
'poised' to win.

 

["Roger"]

Four. No letters correct on my opening word, them methodically going forward.

Wordle 358 2/6

 

[Rolltydr]

3 for me.

Spoiler

I felt I was on POINT this morning. I was a little FROSTed to find out I really wasn’t. Then the cream FLOATed to the top!

 

["Roger"]

Four again. Wrong first letter on the third try. Luck runs both ways.

Spoiler

 

[clifffaith]

Five today, in spite of what I thought was a logical way to approach it.

Spoiler

On my third try I decided the O likely was right after the L. Then I came up with a number of words ending in -LOCK and also -LOWN. I chose CLOWN as my word figuring it could get me going on the -LOCK string of letters if the -LOWN string was wrong. Sadly that didn’t work today.

 

[T_R_Oglodyte]

Six for me. After the third guess I knew the last four letters, but there were three options for the position 1. Since I had three guesses left I went by process of elimination instead of using a test word. Guesses 4 and 5 were the two incorrect answers.

[rickandcindy23]

Today I got it in 3, Rick got it in 2. He just guessed that second word after getting two letters.

 

[Patri]

A couple of you beat me. TWO. All wrong first guess. Thought about the other vowels and put everything together right on the next try.

 

[dsmrp]

Almost forgot to do today's game, this being Sunday. 3 for me today. luckily I got the first letter on 2nd guess.

Spoiler

 

[VacationForever]

I have been getting at 3 for the past 4 days, 3 again today. I thought today was a fun word.

Took me 4 to start the week.

Spoiler

FLARE was the first word that popped into my head this morning and hit the R in the wrong position. I decided to identify any other vowels and went with PIOUS. An O in the wrong position. I wondered if their might be two of those O’s? Double O’s were used just a few days ago so I thought if there were indeed 2, they wouldn’t be consecutive so I tried MOTOR. My thinking was correct and I now had both O’s and the R in the right positions. From there it was pretty simple. DONOR was the first word I thought of that would work and I went with it.

 

[Patri]

This one was really hard for me. Figured out early it was only one vowel, but used a throwaway word to verify. Made it in five. Phew.

 

["Roger"]

I seem to be stuck on four (which is not that bad a place to be).

Spoiler

My third word was poorly chosen in that I should have seen that the "D" could not have been the fouth letter.

 

[clifffaith]

Five today.

Spoiler

Took me four tries to get the R in the right place.

Dang, I cleared out my browsing history yesterday and lost all of my statistics. Time to restart my streak.

Apparently, so did I.

 

[T_R_Oglodyte]

Three today.

Spoiler

Standard first guess. If I don't hit any vowels on that first guess, I almost always use a second guess that includes two o's and a y.
