Anyone playing wordle?

Five. Fun word, but golly!
Wordle - The New York Times.png
 
Took me all 6 today but I got it.
 
Sometime I question my own ability to spell. Yesterday I got it in five. I had three of the letters by the second guess, and in the right place at three. I knew I had it, so typed the answer, and smugly hit Enter. It was shocking that it was the wrong word. D'oh! :doh:

I stared at the wrong letter for a second, trying to think of which letter fit the missing position, and it clicked in. So i got it in five. Frustrating.

Four today, and it took me a while as I debated using a random word to get all new letters, vs my usual route of incorporating what I already had. Using what I knew worked out well.

I’ve done that so many times. When I just know I’m right, I become incredulous when one square doesn’t turn green! :crash:
 
Four today which in a way was amazing. It was my third try before I got my first letter (in the wrong position). I guess, without intending to, I was using T_R_'s strategy of putting in wrong words to eliminate letters.

Three today. Sometimes hunting vowels works out.

After ADIEU, EBONY put the E from guess 1 in a new position, and tested for the last two vowels. EBONY proved to be a rich guess.

After EBONY, the two words on my list were ENJOY and ENVOY. I did a mental coin flip and decided to try ENJOY, with ENVOY as my next guess.

Struggle bus today, but got it in 6.
I do enjoy just throwing out anything and seeing where it takes me. But today I was regretting not having a better strategy. Got there, but barely.

Today was not a pleasure - at 6th guess with only two vowels.

I was absolutely certain I had it in 4. The Wordle gods are still laughing. :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:
I’m sitting on my balcony at Bonnet Creek this morning watching the fountain spray water in the lake. SPRAY got the ending Y. Next, I used LOUIE (which I didn’t even know was a word until Wordle) to try the remaining vowels. Got the O and E out of position. HONEY was next, added the N, also out of position. I knew the word was EBONY. I was 100% certain. Except it wasn’t. :doh: I was left with ENxOY. Thank goodness, I didn’t even think of ENVOY until I read TR’s post.

Five today. I continued my recent trend of where I could choose between two letters, choosing the wrong one on the first try.

Another 6 but I'm fine with that one. :D
 
Three today

After ALIEN, I wanted to check other locations for the A, L, and I. And since T and R are among the consonants I usually hunt for first, TRAIL looked like a good word. I debated between TRAIL and TRIAL, but went with TRAIL, because it seemed that xxAIx occurred more often than xxIAx. TRAIL was a good choice, since that gave me the I in position 4.

After the results with TRAIL, VALID was the only solution I could come up with.

A perfectly alright 4. Like yesterday, two vowels, no constants until I managed to solve it.

Four. Off to my day now.

Four.
The moon was shining brightly as I drank coffee on the balcony this morning so I started with SHINE. Found an I. tried the remaining vowels next with AUDIO. That moved the I to the correct position and added A and D to the mix. At this point, I thought it most likely that I was looking at this scenario, xAxID. I thought of RAPID first and tried it, but it was not VALID.

I have to get off this string of 6's. :D
 
Rats, could have/should have had it in two. But I “go through the keyboard” sequentially and came upon my second try, which I just KNEW was right, before the correct choice.

My first word was what I was faced with in five spots this morning. Cats, bah humbug!
