too many dang choices for the 4th letter again. Good luck.

They were saying on the Today show (I only saw the end) that Wordle has gotten harder since the NYT took it over. I don't think so. I got it in 4 yesterday and 3 the day before. Today could have been in 3, if I made a different decision. When did they switch? And then I saw this.

I just realized, maybe that's what people meant about it being too hard. If whoever made up today's puzzles picked a word that could be so many different words with just one letter change. Mean. But people mentioned it before today's puzzle, anyway.

What fun would it be to get 3 of the 5 letters or whatever and automatically know the word? Not that fun for me.

The articles coming out complaining about it are :rolleyes:

Even tougher:

But interesting enough to keep replaying.

Ho-oly crap. Way beginner's luck. I got the first word in 2 words. (Hint - it's a timely word this week.) There's no way to keep the score for just that one though. I did a snip. I can't copy it here. If everybody gets the same puzzle, tomorrow I will put it in my profile picture. The rest is too confusing.

Whenever it takes me longer to come up with my next word guess it's almost always for the same reason - I've forgotten that the same letter can be used twice.

Yeah, the day "cynic" was the word, I had "panic" on the third word, so I had the _ _ N I C and just couldn't think of anything to go with it.

Yesterday's Octordle. I had "super", then "abuse", which was the right word. Two words! Why can't I do that in Wordle. The rest was too confusing.

Evil puzzle makers. Again. Too many choices. That does make it harder. You just have to be lucky.

It was similar for me today. I got four of the letters and their placements pretty quickly but I had to try several different letters for that second spot.

That's happened three times lately. I can't even remember what the word was the other day, but when I got down to one letter left, there were SEVEN words it could be.
