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

[tarric]

3 today, but I can see it being a tricky one.
1Y, 1G 2Y, 5G.

 

[Norkie]

4 for me today

 

[Jannyfox]

Tricky one till you've used so many letters it's the only option (that I could think of) and get it in 4
0, 1g 1y, 2g, 5g

 

[Dale.]

A better 3 today................

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

 

[RIR]

Another 4 today.

 

[Cockney]

Happy 3 today.

 

[Cagey75]

A 3 on my 50 streak

 

[RIR]

[Cagey75]

Ach! need to stop doing late ones! struggled to a 5 on this

5g

 

[Nod]

3 for me.

 

[Norkie]

Crikey that was hard work, a ‘Phew’ for me

 

[Nod]

A green and 2 yellows with my second guess was helped a lot by the letters the first guess had eliminated and I couldn't see many options so lucked into the 3!

 

[tarric]

A quick 2 this morning 4Y, 5G.

 

[Peter123]

3 again today.

 

[Dale.]

3 today..........

1G,
2G,
5G.

 

[Cockney]

3 here.

 

[Jannyfox]

3 club today. 1y, 2y, 5g

 

[Cagey75]

An 'eurgh' 5 today, started complete blank

0 - 2y - 2y - 3g1y - 5g

 

[RIR]

Epic fail today

 

[Nod]

4 for me but only tried it because I couldn't see anything else to try!

 

[Norkie]

Unusual choice of word, hence a 5

 

[tarric]

3 today but only because I couldn't think of anything else, 1G 2Y, 1G 3Y, 5G.

 

[Boots]

Four for me, but I feel cheated! Not in my dictionary

 

[Jannyfox]

I wasn't expecting that to be a valid word. Tried another similar word which I expected to be valid which wasn't.
1y, 3y, 5g

 

[Cockney]

4 here. Confused though.

 

[Boots]

I wasn't expecting that to be a valid word. Tried another similar word which I expected to be valid which wasn't.
1y, 3y, 5g

Ditto

4 here. Confused though.

Google is your friend, that will explain all... still feel cheated though

 

[tarric]

I wasn't expecting that to be a valid word. Tried another similar word which I expected to be valid which wasn't.
1y, 3y, 5g

Maybe just one for a certain few, they are however making a bit of a comeback due to a certain film franchise and it's spin off.

 

[Peter123]

Made it in 4 and a number of non-word rejections.

 

[Jannyfox]

Maybe just one for a certain few, they are however making a bit of a comeback due to a certain film franchise and it's spin off.

I've only ever come across the word in one context. In its other meaning (Googled it) I would have called it something else. Definitely not one of the 'certain few', though among the 'certain few' for the other word I tried

 

[Nod]

Like Jan, I've only come across it in the other context but, like the hat that cowboys used to wear, I can see the other context!

 

[Cagey75]

That was a sneaky one, took me 5 and only got it if I'm honest because I had all the letters on 4th guess and there seemed to be nothing else that fit!

1y
3y
4y
4y1g!
5g

 

[RIR]

A redeeming 4 today

 

[Norkie]

And a 4 here also

I must admit I was almost shocked at yesterday’s answer, Ascot? I thought it was a racetrack? Hey ho!

 

[Peter123]

Fail. By line 2 I had the first 3 letters but then it’s just a guessing game. So many options.
On my 97th streak as well.

 

[tarric]

Yep just the same first three by line 2 and nothing added by line six, 1G 1Y, 3G, 3G, 3G, 3G, 3G.

 

[Cockney]

3 again today.

 

[Nod]

4 for me. Went for the softer word first!

 

[Nod]

And a 4 here also

I must admit I was almost shocked at yesterday’s answer, Ascot? I thought it was a racetrack? Hey ho!

Me too but, as my earlier post said, if a derby can be a hat, maybe an ascot could be something too!

 

[Jannyfox]

Another 3. 1g, 1g 2y, 5g
I only knew Ascot in the context of a racecourse too. My first punt was ascom, which seemed far more obvious to me but too niche for Wordle. Not on their list.

 

[Dale.]

Not been in here for a few days but I have kept my streak going.

Today I got a 4................

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