Tragically I lost all my scoring record up to 26 August this year. As I'd posted my results so far here on 21 March, I've at least got my scores from the very start but with a five-month gap from 21 March to 26 August, after which I started again. So, apart from that five months (for which I'd love to claim a long run of twos, which would be a huge porkie), my scores are:

1: 1
2: 21
3: 129
4: 168
5: 108
6: 23
Fails: 10

As long as the 2s and 6s are about even and I've got more 3s than 5s I'm happy! (Let's not mention the fails...)

Still plugging along, though a couple of losses lately have my current streak low.

I don't HAVE to win any more. Last week, or rather a few days ago, I lost for the fifth time give or take. In this case it was because I moved the marker to 'hard way' which means I have to re-use winning tiles which lessens my chances of picking up those I haven't yet got.

Life goes on..

I even put a special value on the ones that take a full count.

There has been major fallout or abandonment of many threads, including, apparently, this one. I'm unaware (or left out) of the reason or reasons. Has depression set in on many? I know I am not a happy puppy these days, due to perfectly understandable threats to peace and good behavior.

And I've been losing at Wordle more than ever. My own issue, because I've been sticking with the 'hard' way, which demands re-use of found letters so that in cases where you have words with many choices around a couple of known letters, say _OR___ you may have to go 'off of' the hard mode in order to eliminate extraneous letters.

But I wanted to ask the crowd if anyone has checked out the new New York Times Puzzle: "CONNECTIONS". I find this more of a personal draw than wordle. I have a friend who daily compares notes with me on both WORDLE and CONNECTIONS. She has an exaggerated idea of my adeptness because of my loudness and ability to sing despite my ineptness. But she's won more of both games than I have.

If there is a willingness to get into CONNECTIONS I'd like to know.

I still do Wordle most days, and also connections. I've tried a new one recently, Strands?

Did my first 'STRANDS' last night. Not sure how I feel about it.

Don't know if I mentioned this earlier in the thread (That's RIGHT! I'm old enough to forget my previous postings and so old that I don't care).

But 'WORDLE' was a word used to sound vaguely dirty, or at least unkempt, in the songs of Rambling Syd Rumpo (the great and beloved Kenneth Williams)

I do Connections but most of the time it has far too many American connections which only Americans would know! So I maybe get a “perfect” about 1 in 20. Most other times, I perhaps get one line and the rest is “Next Time…..”!

I'm sorry about that regarding CONNECTIONS. You might be right that is is 'left-bank' friendly. I've enjoyed a lot of English humor and lit and songs and culture so I may have an advantage. I've been gotten a few times by being ignorant of sports terms and such late developments as the UNO card game. There are some helper web sites I'm told that run the fine line between being informative and cheating. In the past WORDLE has been more 'transatlantic'.
