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.

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 🤣

Yes, that word… I would use it around Christmas.

Bottom left was formed in the beloved way that Quordle has… sneaky.

My starter was CATER and I followed with SPINEY.

It was a word I've wanted for so long given my mostly starting word. Finally, it paid off! Crunchy.

Well guessed from that little bit of information!

I felt as if I had a good start, but in reality, this word almost beat me. After #4 though, there didn't seem to be anything else it could be.

Bit of an unusual word, but not rare as such.

I was only able to solve the left hand ones by looking at where some of the letters couldn't go.

I had completely different eliminators for this. They helped with the RH words, not so much with the left. Them's the breaks.

That was a bit harder than usual......which is good! I used

"claim"

as my second word. I think that helped a bit.

 I have had to search to do a spoiler. Mine contains a screenshot so countess don't look as it will spoil it for you.
