    There have been a few nasty ones recently.  There was one I didn't get the other day.  There are a lot of options for words that end in OUND.
    That’s why, after getting OUND in green, my next word was WOMBS, 
    And that's the strategy.

    You can try F or R or or W or (etc) in turn, and either need to get lucky, or you run our of rows.  It's pure hit-and-miss luck.

    So, find another word that uses as many of the options as possible, you know it'll be wrong as a word, but it might just tell you which letter you need.

    is it crazy how saying sentences backwards creates backwards sentences saying how crazy it is?

    But I got a genuine 1 in Wordle today. Feels like cheating just because they happened to use my regular starting word.
    That happened to me today. I have two different starters though so I'm more amazing, right? ;)

    Hadn’t done it, done it now a bit rushed. Ahh, okay, I see. 
    I’ll handle this Violet, you take your three hour break.

    Is anyone else still doing a daily Wordle?  I was defeated by yesterday's (6th Jan) puzzle. I looked up the answer and I'm not surprised, it's not a word that is in my vocabulary.

    Am I alone in failing? Did everyone else find it easy?

    I also failed yesterday, which is very unusual for me, and so did my son (we compete).

    Both managed a three today.

    Thanks @Musicwolf ;I'm relieved to hear that it wasn't just me. I've not done today's yet - I'll take 3 as my target.

    I've missed a few days when I've been away from home/laptop, but it's generally part of my morning wake-up routine.

    I took 6 yesterday but I did get it.

    I missed the day before though so my streak is back to 2 instead of 40ish.

  • Yesterday's was tricky; I think it took me 5.

    No ads on Wordle, but they started appearing on Nerdle a while back.

    I still do a daily Wordle, Quordle, and Heardle in the morning and share scores with my sister. It starts the day and helps us keep in touch.

    Got Wordle in 3 yesterday and today.

  • It's part of my morning routine as well.
    That and Squardle, which I like very much - it has weekly puzzle challenge too.

    I still do Wordle although I've missed a few days, or played on a different device, and broken streaks a few times.

    I definitely got the one on 6 January, but I can't remember what it was.  I never can remember by the next day.

  • I still do Wordle and, um, Redactle: https://redactle-unlimited.com/ which is a random Wikipedia entry completely redacted (except for some basic words). For a long time I found it completely impossible, but I think I've got the hang of it now. I do allow myself to do research when it's something (like science or maths) that I honestly don't know the terminology for. I still find it interesting to do, even when I don't get it.

    I do Wordle and Weaver daily although Weaver has just started having adverts which is frustrating. 

    Yesterday’s Wordle took me 6 too

    I still do wordle and quordle most days. Nerdle most days but that annoys me regularly. 

    I don’t like squardle and heardle doesn’t work in this country, but I do liked Framed

    Just tried Squardle. Took me half an hour! It's a clever game but I don't have time for that in the morning.

    You get quicker.  It remembers your progress, so you can do five minutes and then come back to it later.

    The difficulty varies through the week.  Monday is normally the easiest and it gets harder through the week.  They won't all take that long.

    re ads... I usually do it at wordle.com, but just logged into the NYtimes link (https://www.nytimes.com/games/wordle/index.html) and it has a banner ad there.

    I don't mind a banner advert - a small price to pay for a daily puzzle.

    Today's Phrazle is wrong. There's a homonym in there that makes it meaningless, and it's not a UK/US spelling thing.
