Wordle 308 4/6






Ooooh, I had to mull over this for a bit.

You created a lovely pattern, @misskarne!

Me too

And my first word was ANGST if you can believe it - I've mostly been starting with words that are two vowels and three consonants, but might do more consonant-heavy words because either it gets you there faster, or helps by way of elimination.

I’ve actually been trying that for about a week and it’s working out pretty well. My reasoning was who needs vowels, there are only 5 vs. 21. Not exactly a linguist here, but whatever.

Re my above “theory”……Be flexible.

I've been doing pretty well. I've guessed them all, mostly in 3 or 4 tries.

Bit of a ride this morning!

After getting so many right letters in the wrong place on the second try, I said "crap". That kind of makes it harder to sort out what you already have. Hence the third guess. The fourth was luck.

I kept thinking the 1st letter wasn't available!

@floridaice and I had a similar experience today, only it took me one longer!

Had to mull over it quite a bit again.

Sheesh - at today's word.

I typed it in several times before submitting, didn't think that word was spelled that way. I've never been a strong speller, one reason I play games like Wordle & Spelling Bee and do crosswords.

If it wasn't an actual word, it wouldn't be in the Wordle dictionary, and it would have told you, and you wouldn't have lost your turn.

I didn’t know I’d be walking into the lion’s den, but I just escaped with it.

My tactic of playing SHITE first on Wordle paid dividends today.

Anyone else been playing the Spelling Bee game that NYT links to when you finish Wordle? It's kind of fun ...

I did it once. You don't get the answers till the next day and I forgot to check.

I mentioned it in a different thread a while back. I do Spelling Bee regularly, Wordle occasionally, and recently started doing Semantle. I've gotten Queen Bee by myself once or twice (plus more often with the grid/hints) but typically stop shortly after hitting Genius.

One of my greatest pleasures is a cup of tea on a Sunday morning as I dig into the puzzles in the NY Times magazine (with a pen, not online!). Spelling Bee is the only puzzle where the answers are within that issue - all the others puzzles you have to wait a week.

I just got 25 words. You have to subscribe to go to the Genius level. Maybe tell that whackadoodle on the city's chat that I don't actually have a pee (yes, that's how she spelled it) brain.
