Subject: RE: BS: Wordle From: Steve Shaw Date: 22 Apr 22 - 07:19 AM Three. I amazed myself with the leap from a very unpromising line 2 to the answer on line 3! |

Subject: RE: BS: Wordle From: Stilly River Sage Date: 23 Apr 22 - 09:18 PM It was a tough one to get to, with a throwaway word to get more letters, leaving me saying "well, duh!" to myself. Wordle 308 6/6 🟩⬜⬜🟨⬜ 🟩⬜⬜🟨⬜ 🟩⬜⬜⬜🟩 🟩⬜⬜⬜🟩 ⬜🟩⬜⬜🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 |

Subject: RE: BS: Wordle From: Steve Shaw Date: 27 Apr 22 - 11:45 AM Five. Bad tactics after a good opener. Too many alternatives by line 3 and then a poor strategy. I only got it out of sheer luck. |
Subject: RE: BS: Wordle From: Jon Freeman Date: 27 Apr 22 - 12:00 PM Four. I had one of those mind blanks trying to think of what to guess for line 3 and was on the verge of taking a break/ having a cup of coffee when something came to me. Wordle 312 4/6 ⬜⬜⬜⬜🟨 🟩⬜⬜🟨⬜ 🟩🟨🟩⬜🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 |

Subject: RE: BS: Wordle From: Jon Freeman Date: 28 Apr 22 - 04:40 AM Robo, in case you missed it before, you need to convert the special characters to HTML to get it to work here. There are a number of online HTML encoders around but not all work for this. This is one I know does work. |
Subject: RE: BS: Wordle From: Steve Shaw Date: 28 Apr 22 - 06:41 AM Four. And I absolutely did not expect the word I chose for line four to be the answer! |

Subject: RE: BS: Wordle From: Steve Shaw Date: 29 Apr 22 - 03:43 PM A very swift three today. And that was before my morning flat white. (I was a bit lucky...) |
Subject: RE: BS: Wordle From: Stilly River Sage Date: 29 Apr 22 - 10:19 PM That's the New Yorker, via a Facebook conduit. Still New Yorker. The tyranny of too many choices led to being skunked again today. Wordle 314 X/6 ⬜⬜⬜🟨🟨 🟩🟩🟩⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩⬜⬜ |

Subject: RE: BS: Wordle From: Jeri Date: 30 Apr 22 - 10:35 AM I did it in four, too. The most help came because of the letters I eliminated - there was no other *reasonable* word that left fit. |
Subject: RE: BS: Wordle From: Stilly River Sage Date: 30 Apr 22 - 11:52 AM Four here also. Thank you, Random House Speller/Divider that also let me see the only one that would fit with the letters I'd eliminated. (It maybe helps in about 1 in 10 puzzles). Wordle 315 4/6 🟨⬜⬜🟨⬜ 🟩🟩⬜⬜⬜ 🟩🟩⬜⬜🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 |
Subject: RE: BS: Wordle From: Stanron Date: 01 May 22 - 06:53 AM I've just looked at the Facebook Wordle group and someone posted OUIJA as a five letter word with four vowels. Along with AUDIO and ADIEU that gives me three starting words. Anyone got any more? I got today's in four. It looked impossible on go two. |
Subject: RE: BS: Wordle From: Jon Freeman Date: 01 May 22 - 06:57 AM My last three have taken 5. I put the first one down to carelessness but I simply struggled with the later two. Here's today's: Wordle 316 5/6 🟨⬜⬜⬜⬜ ⬜🟨⬜⬜⬜ ⬜🟩🟩⬜⬜ ⬜🟩🟩⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 |

Subject: RE: BS: Wordle From: Steve Shaw Date: 02 May 22 - 06:09 AM Two! I got just three orange ones in my first word. I'm not trying a first-word strategy any more. I pick up a book or mag and use the first five-letter word I see that doesn't look too outlandish, which has mainly common letters and which has five different letters. |
Subject: RE: BS: Wordle From: Jon Freeman Date: 02 May 22 - 06:34 AM It could have been 2 for me too had I picked a different last letter. It took me 4. Wordle 317 4/6 🟨⬜🟨⬜🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 |
Subject: RE: BS: Wordle From: Steve Shaw Date: 02 May 22 - 07:31 AM Mrs Steve also suffered last-letter syndrome today. She adopted (after a lot of persuasion) the Jon Freeman throwaway-word strategy to nail that last letter and got it in four. |

Subject: RE: BS: Wordle From: Jeri Date: 04 May 22 - 04:44 PM I'm on the same choo-choo that Jon is. Got it in two and was super-surprised. (Too lazy to do the HTML.) |
Subject: RE: BS: Wordle From: Stilly River Sage Date: 04 May 22 - 05:50 PM It's a starter word I use sometimes - but not today. |
