Wordle

Judging by the results it looks like lots of people are playing the “yesterday’s answer first” rule, which makes posting your result effectively a first line spoiler. I tried that today, took me 4 goes – had it down to a choice of 2 on the third and played the wrong one.

Luck or Skill?

How the hell?!

given there are 2500 correct answers there will always be an element of luck – but well done all the same, I’d say skillful guessing 🙂

Judging by the results it looks like lots of people are playing the “yesterday’s answer first” rule, which makes posting your result effectively a first line spoiler.

Agree, I though that this morning but didn’t have the time to spoiler it. Will do from now on. Although, I might also just give up posting here 🙂

Does anyone actually come on this thread before playing the game? Shirley you play the game, post the results and then have a bit of a discussion about it.

Anyone worried about that slightest of potential spoilers should avoid the thread.

Worst result for a while..

Luck or Skill?

…or hitting f12, looking at javascript?

But quicker probably to actually do the puzzle. I’ve just had had a minor phase of hello wordl ~(link on p2 means you can do as many as you want. Not great for those of us with poor impulse control…) and all go in three or four as far as I can see. So I think it’s run its course.

I’d say skillful guessing

I wouldn’t. Its quite a poor choice of words to eliminate common letters (except on this one occasion)

Thanks
It’s my standard second word so Nirvana was agonisingly close if I wasn’t such a creature of habit!

I’m disappointed , was easy tday.
3 correctly placed letters first go left only two possible words, guessed wrong so on 3rd guess got it.

The first word narrowed it down well, second made it easy. Starting to think about this a lot more logically despite me doing it as soon as I wake up!

One of those where the answer was way more of an obvious word to pick than my third guess, but I just couldn’t see it at the time.

The game needs an element of time in it as although there is a high element of luck, how quickly you can think of and enter the possible words is all that really matters as after doing it for a few weeks it does seem to be easier and I typically take 30 seconds to a minute to get it each day.

Slow today. Need to pick less obscure words.

Trying to play pure but I forgot yesterday’s word. I played something equally useless

Been playing for three days now and have gone 5, 4, 3. Thought today’s was easy as well, took about 30 seconds. Does seem to be quite a bit of luck to it though, no? Not playing yesterday’s word or pure or anything, do they make it better/harder?

I thought today was my day to finally get a 2

Each guess gives less information but all actually have a (increasing) chance of being right.

Seems I’m just unlucky.
