Wordle

[conyoviejo]

Quite good,anybody else playing it?.So simple yet quite addictive.
It passes a few minutes on in the morning.

[Silkyskills1]

Yep, frustratingly, annoyingly,addictive.

[lakedistrictclaret]

Yes, I play it every day, if I remember.

The game has been sold to the New York Times, so eventually I suppose we'll have to pay to do it.

Am doing it too ... quite clever but anyone who is adept at crosswords can get the answer reasonably easy ... certainly within 5 ...

[SalisburyClaret]

Very addictive as you say.
It was sold last week so may not stay the same for too long...

[RMutt]

Yes. There was a thread about it a couple of weeks ago. I got my first in three and said I would retire after that but I’ve actually carried on. It wakes my brain up a little in the morning. I think my best effort/ the most difficult was ‘wrung’

[RalphCoatesComb]

Passes a few minutes like you say. Possibly appeals to us elder ones more

[wilks_bfc]

Always start off with the same word

Did it in 3 for first time today

[RalphCoatesComb]

Always start off with the same word - GOOD IDEA
Did it in 3 for first time today - SOMETIMES YOU HAVE TO GET LUCKY

[dandeclaret]

Wordle's sooooo last week..... Nerdle is where it's at now.

[wilks_bfc]

It helps narrow down the vowels

I don't understand why you have to share your results on social media, no-one actually gives a ****, you know

irony alert!

is it available on android? just bought a tablet and trying to fill it up with good games and apps.

[Sproggy]

If you want something a bit harder, try Absurdle.

It doesn't start with a solution word - so your first try always comes up blank, it narrows down the list of possibilities based on your guesses. It can't be done in less than 4 tries. Your job it to get the AI down to only having one word left in its library.

No app - just a website.

Obviously you can make the website link look like an app if you need to

Absolutely, lots of my friends on Facebook insist on sending me a shot of their latest effort.....they put on a 30 day snooze, no ifs, no buts.

It is good... todays was reasonable, there's been a couple earlier this week that have been tricky.

[Vegas Claret]

don't forget wordle archive for those that are new to it, all previous days are on there

[dougcollins]

Watch out for American spellings, there were a load of complaints on the day when 'honor' came up.

[FCBurnley]

Try Lewdle

[Quickenthetempo]

Starting with the word Bread has worked well for me, until today.
Too many guesses getting the letters in the right order.

[dandeclaret]

Adieu has regularly been my starter word, but I've been playing with sport the last few days.

[Bosscat]

Or Sweardle

[wilks_bfc]

Adieu has regularly been my starter word, but I've been playing with sport the last few days.

That’s been my starter

[clarethomer]

Apparently CRANE is the best word to start with. Watched a video on it and how information theory concludes this.

I used it for first time today and got my first 6 - sod informs theory was my conclusion

[TheOriginalLongsider]

It’s basically hangman isn’t it. Just with 5 letter words

Got lucky

[chekhov]

I try to start with a different word every day. Makes for more of a challenge.

[CrosspoolClarets]

Just tried Wordle, Lewdle and Nerdle for the first time - got them in 3, 4 and 4 respectively.

The problem with the last two is that it has to be a legit lewd word each time and a legit calc each time. That in itself works the brain out. Probably best not to play Lewdle moments before sending a works email.

isn't it just a shitty version of

[blsclaret]

I like Nerdle but today's solution is beyond me. Had to search tinterweb and still not got an explanation. To me and simple maths it does not compute.

I won't spoil the fun for anyone, but If somebody could prove the calculation then i't would be appreciated.
Cheers

[blsclaret]

Have been advised the answer now.
Shame the things needed to solve are not in the options available.

BIDMAS… brackets, indices, division/multiplication, addition/subtraction. There’s a priority order on what operations are done first. Think of it as having brackets around multiplication/division expressions so to work those out before addition/subtraction operations

[fatboy47]

Chess.

No need for this wordle sh1te.

[ClaretTony]

Sorry for bumping the thread but I've just done today's and got it right at the second attempt. Was somewhat fortunate to just choose a first word and get three of the letters correct and in the correct position.

[Devils_Advocate]

Spill the beans and let us know how you did it then

[NewClaret]

4, which is pretty good for me

[ClaretTony]

Just a fluke isn’t it to get three correct and in the right position from a first guess. I’ve never had more than one before.

[HiThere]

BBC: Anti-vaxxers are complaining that Wordle is too difficult because the government are hiding the real rules from them.

[Guller Bull]

Start word for me is usually "earth" or "heart" then go with "pious" second and then look where I am.

[Pearcey]

I always start with a 3 vowel word. Irate, mouse, pause etc. it’s a good game.

[andyh]

Start word for me is usually "earth" or "heart" then go with "pious" second and then look where I am.

All vowels and s t r make that a good start. I’ve heard media and spout are often used… very similar

Firstly we’ll done CT. Secondly what are you doing up at that time, can’t you sleep. and thirdly it’s a good omen for a 3:0 win today.

[timshorts]

BBC: Anti-vaxxers are complaining that Wordle is too difficult because the government are hiding the real rules from them.

Why have you got it in for anti-vaxxers? You just made that up. Everybody knows that wordle is just a plot so that Elon musk can access your phone data. When you get the word right and are feeling all George Clooney about yourself, it triggers an access code to the pentagon.
Best to never get the word right. They can't get you that way.

[beddie]

Yesterdays (Friday 25th) was hard, especially as I thought you could only use each letter once, I only found out last night that wasn’t correct.

[The Enclosure]

Managed it in 3 today and my normal start word "earth" did not give me one correct letter which is unusual I find.
