I only play Wordle, Tradle, and Poeltl

Jeff, Friday, 25 March 2022 19:52 (four years ago)

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.

Ace of Base Are Belong To Us (Leee), Saturday, 26 March 2022 16:14 (four years ago)

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.

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

jaymc, Saturday, 26 March 2022 20:02 (four years ago)

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.

Everybody Loves Ramen (WmC), Sunday, 27 March 2022 20:42 (four years ago)

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

celebrating ten years of constant posting (breastcrawl), Sunday, 27 March 2022 20:51 (four years ago)

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

👍🏻

that was my guess #3, got it on the next one

Tracer Hand, Sunday, 27 March 2022 22:07 (four years ago)

lol @ today's worldle

I rest my case

We're just defending the indefensible.

Everybody Loves Ramen (WmC), Monday, 28 March 2022 03:26 (four years ago)

Lol, I tried oomph and glyph before getting nymph. Not many words end that way!

Also lymph

And tryst.

Ace of Base Are Belong To Us (Leee), Monday, 28 March 2022 16:16 (four years ago)

sorry, those are not -PH words.

celebrating ten years of constant posting (breastcrawl), Monday, 28 March 2022 16:36 (four years ago)

Ahh, I got stuck in words where Y is the only vowel land. In that case, SYLPH.

Ace of Base Are Belong To Us (Leee), Monday, 28 March 2022 16:39 (four years ago)

Worldle in 1 today.

Oops, just realized I misread "Worldle" as "Wordle." Carry on.

jaymc, Monday, 28 March 2022 16:50 (four years ago)

I got Sunday's in two, happened to set myself up with a good opening word (which gave me the first letter and also eliminated a bunch of vowels). Monday's however, is my least favorite type. I eked it out in 6, but that was still lucky because I was picking from among several possible words at that point. It nearly wrecked my streak!

Dang, I didn't get the wordle today for the first time (broke my streak of 81). It was one of those dumb ones where I had 5 of the letters early on, and was reduced to guessing one of the million words with a different starting letter.

change display name (Jordan), Monday, 28 March 2022 17:43 (four years ago)

yeah, i had to do a Wordle well breaker (enter a word that contains numerous possible letters to sniff out the last remaining letter that you need) for the first time ever to get today's

Murgatroid, Monday, 28 March 2022 17:47 (four years ago)

got the poeltl on the first guess today

in places all over the world, real stuff be happening (voodoo chili), Monday, 28 March 2022 17:52 (four years ago)

I really should have done that!

Yep, that's what I did. The word I used was HIMBO.

jaymc, Monday, 28 March 2022 18:15 (four years ago)

Haha. I was just very convinced it would be WOUND and not FOUND, since they don't tend to use many verbs that are just conjugations. Maybe I'm reading too much logic into the word selection.

change display name (Jordan), Monday, 28 March 2022 18:31 (four years ago)

There are two different answers today: mine was stove but some others got harry instead.

mike t-diva, Wednesday, 30 March 2022 08:59 (four years ago)

I was wondering how people were taking so many guesses with just the 4th letter to get

groovypanda, Wednesday, 30 March 2022 09:22 (four years ago)

Are some people still on powerlanguage instead of nyt?

ledge, Wednesday, 30 March 2022 12:36 (four years ago)

Interesting. I can't get to powerlanguage, it redirects.

The Central Rockaliser (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 30 March 2022 12:52 (four years ago)

I think it still works if you've never closed the tab.

jaymc, Wednesday, 30 March 2022 13:45 (four years ago)

Ah, good point!

The Central Rockaliser (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 30 March 2022 13:56 (four years ago)

Appears NYT fucked up again by deciding to remove a word (the name one) but people whose browsers hadn't refreshed still got it.
