A bit of fun - WORDLE. (NB, US spelling!) No spoilers please

[RIR]

A 3 this morning.

 

[Nod]

3 for me too.

xxxxx wasn't the best start and xxgxx didn't seem to improve things much but the letters that had been eliminated didn't leave many choices!

 

[sphexx]

4 today. Blank start and then reusing a wrong letter on second didn’t help .

 

[Peter123]

4 today.
Another day when there were 2 obvious answers and as usual I chose the wrong one.

 

[Cockney]

5 today.

 

[Dale.]

3 today,

1Y,
1G, 1Y,
5G.

There's a story to it, I'll explain tomorrow.

Not done today's yet but yesterday's story..................


I wasn't really getting it yesterday. I didn't think it would be such an obvious word.

We have 2 parrots who have quite a vocabulary between them. I was on my 3rd guess and our African Grey shouted 'hello', so I tried it.

 

[Dale.]

4 today,

1Y, 1G,
3G,
3G,
5G.

 

[Tigger.ufo]

3 for me today.

1G
1G, 1Y and some inspired guessing!
5G

 

[Jannyfox]

4 after blanking the first then trying to be a smartarse on the 3rd
Blank, 1y, 1g 1y, 5g

 

[tarric]

A surprising 3 today O, 2Y then an inspired 5G.

 

[Bebop]

A lucky 3 for me.
0
1y 1g
5g

I forgot to do it yesterday!

 

[RIR]

Back to a 5 again today.

 

[Peter123]

4 today.
Stayed up late to photograph the Milky Way but too much cloud.

 

[RIR]

4 today.
Stayed up late to photograph the Milky Way but too much cloud.

Likewise for the Perseid meteor shower. No chance, bucketing it down in SW Scotland

 

[sphexx]

2 today! XOOOX left only one possible, according to WORDLEBOT, and certainly I could only think of one or two others that might be possible but are plurals which I know Wordle doesn’t like.

 

[Bebop]

A 2 for me too! I’m having a good week with 2x2 and 1x3
2g
5g

 

[tarric]

An other 3 for me 2Y, 1G 3Y followed by some head scratching and a few splinters and I could still only come up with one word to fit 5G.

 

[Jannyfox]

3
Think it was 2g 1y, 2g 1y, 5g (did it on my phone earlier)

 

[Nod]

4.

xxgxx, xygxx, xygyy, lucky guess!

 

[Dale.]

3 today,

1Y, 2G,
1Y, 2G,
5G.

 

[Cockney]

2 today.

 

[RIR]

Another 5 today…

 

[sphexx]

4 today but a bit of struggle to an unlikely word I think.

 

[Bebop]

5 for me. Considering I got 1g 1y on first guess it was a long haul, and I would agree @sphexx

 

[Cockney]

5 today. Never been a word.

 

[Nod]

5 for me too.

gxxxx, gxxxx, gxxyx, gggxy and only one option I could think of.

 

[Jannyfox]

3 again but it took a bit of thinking about
1g, 1g 2y, 5g

 

[Tigger.ufo]

Lucky 3 for me, with no yellows.

1G
3G
5G

 

[Peter123]

A very lucky 3.
after having 2words rejected because they are not in the wordle list, this guess worked.

 

[tarric]

4 today 2Y, 3Y, 3G 1Y which was literally 4G and I just couldn't think of a word that would fit with the letters I had left so just went with with most likely sounding 5G.
