Defend The Indefensible: Wordle

Heardle annoyed me when I hit a few songs I only knew from the radio and they played the intro that I hadn't ever heard before (like the Ariana Grande one from several days ago).

I am planning a new game that just makes you guess Roger McGuinn songs

Byrdle

A game where you have to identify the species of faeces - Turdle

A game where you have go guess how many days the milk is past its use-by date - Curdle

No doubt these all actually exist

I am reliably informed there is one just for hockey player names and it is called Gordle

Would definitely play a game where you have to jump over a number of obstacles in order to discover the name of an American film producer whose illustrious Hollywood career was responsible for The Terminator, Aliens and Dante’s Peak among others

so, today’s Worldle…

Haha I guessed right first try today! (For one of the quordle words, that is, but still) feeling like my luck is finally in

great synergy between Heardle and Wordle today

was playing the solution to Heardle and feeling inspired, I entered “shoes” in Wordle. that wasn’t it, but I did get it in two

Heardle's list of possible guesses continues to irritate me. They have zero Beyonce songs (yet several Destiny's Child songs?), zero Maroon 5 songs, zero Weezer songs... there is like no rhyme or reason as to what's in there.

I missed this at the time but there is a spinoff called Byrdle already, it is wordle for choral geeks and I love it.

There's definitely some Beyonce songs as Halo was the answer the other day xps

Huh, I searched for Beyonce and zero songs came up

Might have been the only one as looks like songs are removed from the song list once they've been the song of the day (yesterday's song no longer appears in the search for example)

two heardles in a row in the first second, i am a sad man

It's funny how Worldle will jump from painfully obvious to virtually impossible. Like when it was brazil recently, I was like "come the fuck on." But then another recent one was BOUVET ISLAND, which I had never even heard of and basically just looks like a little, smooth, round bump.

today's was much more in the painfully obvious category

I'm usually not so good at this kind of stuff but somehow for a movie I saw once in the theatre years ago:

Framed #13
🎥 🟩 ⬛ ⬛ ⬛ ⬛ ⬛

Second one does kind of give it away.

Today's Framed was obvious from the first and the previous of days obvious from the second. I've only been doing it this week.

The Worldle game was much too difficult for me.

Today's framed took me two tries since I never saw the movie. They should make something like this that checks your letterboxd and only quizzes you for movies you've already seen.

Worldle is the one of these I've found the most fun. Any game that ends up making me spend 15 minutes reading the wikipedia article on Svalbard is good.

I love that about Worldle too - all these tiny island groups and making me realize I generally know where countries are by their name and not their outlines! Like, who knew Guernsey was its own actual thing - I really had no idea except it had cows and sweaters, so I thought it was some chunk of the UK.

I only play Wordle, Tradle, and Poeltl

lol I got Poeltl in 1.

oh, Tradle looks like a fun one!

The thing about Wordle is it appears to be the Rich Man's Word game.

There are much tougher word games that are so conspicuously competitive but all of these assholes posting to social media don't want to be humiliated by people who do something much more difficult.

Difficulty is just one aspect of a game, young padawan

Worldle in 1 today.

Worldle has taught me that I don't know anything about geography and also there are a lot of islands.

But my boyfriend couldn't get Mexico the other day, that was nice. He usually beats me.

Watching "lingo" this week, one young couple were amazing, usually I can guess the word just before they do, but not once was I ahead of them.

Worldle in 1 today.

Wow. I felt lucky to get it in 3, since there's no way I would've made it my first guess.

When I was studying geography for LL, I made a point of the remembering its shape and arrangement, but even then, I wasn't sure about it today.

After seeing the vowel situation, the right answer was pretty obvious.

Also got Quordle with three guesses left and Octordle with two guesses left. My best -ordle day yet.

well, like I said I went with a different correct word including said vowel (but at a different position) first. it wasn’t totally clear cut

Got the last four, thought I had it sorted, picked the wrong first letter, ugh.

GLYPH?
