WORDLE - anyone else trying the daily online word game?

[k1ooo-slr-sales]

I recently stumbled across WORDLE online.  For the uninitiated, it is a daily word guessing game where you have to try to guess the word in 6 or less tries.

https://www.powerlanguage.co.uk/wordle/

This, from Wikipedia, explains the game:

Every day, a five-letter word is chosen which players aim to guess within six tries. After every guess, each letter is marked as either green, yellow or gray: green indicates that letter is correct and in the correct position, yellow means it is in the answer but not in the right position, while gray indicates it is not in the answer at all. The game has a "hard mode" option, which requires players to include letters marked as green and yellow in subsequent guesses. The daily word is the same for everyone. The game also has a dark mode as well as a high-contrast theme for colourblind accessibility, which changes the color scheme from green and yellow to orange and blue.

This abc news story has some tips for playing:

I have found that most that most days I can get the daily word in 5 tries or less (mostly 5 though).  Interestingly, there is a spinoff of WORDLE called LEWDLE, where the words are lewd, or naughty, words.  I have better success with LEWDLE than I do with WORDLE . . . getting the word in just 2 or 3 attempts.  Not sure what that says about my private school education 🤣

I don’t think I’ll bother with this one again. There’s nothing challenging about it, maybe leave it for the psychics 😉

Your post gave me a good laugh.

Look at what I did today.😄

I couldn't put my 3 letters together to make anything except try #3, so I thought. Till I had another look and thought, well, that was obvious but I missed it. LOL

I can't say much about this as I can't remember what the answers were. Can you believe it? Forgotten in a minute. I went back to have a look and got a blank canvas, it isn't showing me what i tried.

Countess, why do you always miss using your green letters on your second go? 
I’ve seen you do this before. 
Seems like a wasted turn, IMO.

I could have had it in 3, but forgot my yellow letter in row 2!!

Not sure if the last doodle word was an inspired guess or blind luck😳

[countessalmirena]

Janebabe, the green letters are not enough for me to know what the word is. I’ve still got to find the remaining letters, so I use a second word with none of the letters I used in my first guess. That way I’m covering as much ground as possible to get the rest of the letters.
