Daily WORDLE - 2022

[ERD50]

Interesting. It looks like quite a few of us had few/no hits on the first and maybe the second, but often got it in 3 or 4.

Makes the game fun I think, it looks like it's going badly, but then the eliminations kick in, and it goes pretty good after that. And the opposite can happen (many common words fit, and you just run out of rows).

I'm not much of a game player, and definitely not a sports fan, so I think I sometimes take a different look at things. I'll talk to my sports-nut son-in-law about the various rules and plays in sports, and sometimes I feel it leaves things too random, but then again, some randomness can make it exciting. Like a few feet on a fly ball is the difference between a grand-slam home run and walk-off win, and a fairly routine catch and third out.

The game is a hit coz of the only one time a day word. Also it is somewhat challenging but in general more doable than not.
So folks get the satisfaction of solving a puzzle, but not where they feel it is too simple.

I got it in 4 today. Definitely enjoy the game.

Question: Are you smarter than a 4th grader?

I didn't see a post from anyone who did this well:

Students get Wednesday's Wordle in just two tries

Quote:

On Wednesday, a group of fourth-grade GT students in Mrs. Horan's classroom used "deduction, logic, spelling and reasoning to solve the Wordle.

It was the first time they had played the game.

Past results are no guarantee of future performance.

^ Wednesday's Wordle results?

[sengsational]

Today was a 50-50 chance of getting it in 3. Ended-up 4.

I play easy mode, so I don't have the problem that I call "getting led down the garden path". This is the case where you have 4 letters that could be a whole lot of words (eight, fight, light, might, night, right, sight, tight, wight).

In this case, I would try to make a word out of the letters "e, f, l, m, n, r, s, t, w", so maybe I'd try "TERMS". And if still in a quandary, "FLOWN".

We want them to be really smart so they can earn a lot and pay those taxes.

I am proud that I figured out how to post the above. I would have starved to death, if I had to do the job computer engineers do.

I think I am getting hooked on this game. I woke up at 5:30 AM this morning and the first thing I thought of was this game.

[RunningBum]

It took me the full 6, only the 2nd time in 23 plays. I was looking at two valid letters for the first spot and made the right guess.

[PaunchyPirate]

I too was nervous this morning. I just couldn't seem to make much progress until the very it when it came to me suddenly. I think this is only the 2nd time it has taken me all 6 tries to get it right.
