…of the AW Wordle discussion? Fewer folks posting daily now. I still like sharing my successes (and my bitter failure), discussing tactics, ethics, marvelling at Chiz’s audacity etc. If the few of us that are left wish to carry on, here’s the new place.
If not, I’ll just sit here and count the tumbleweed.
Is this the End….

Sure is quiet here. Too damn quiet
Wordle bummage.
Last week, I got two Heardles (aka ‘Name that Tune’) in one.
See you in the morning.
No hints at what the words are would help, we are in various time zones and many give it away. Only post your results (from the shareable link)
Or don’t look until you have done yours….
I use “Updates” generally on this bored and spoilers can be seen there. Not sure why people want to give spoilers anyway, does it make them look more intelligent?
Although thinking about it, I guess by the time you are up Chiz has already cheated the next day ‘s answer

Saucecraft has gone quiet. I worry he may have had an X day and is too ashamed to show his face.
Well if he has I think I can cope.
Yes, but can he, the poor wee soul?
There have been a lot of Wordle-related comments over the various threads. Maybe an enterprising AfterWorder – possibly somebody with experience in the literary industry – could collect them and edit them judiciously as a valuable record for posterity.
I’m thinking the contributions of a fine graphic artist – (this is a grey area for me, bear with me) – could then shape them into an attractive proposition which AW Marketing might issue as an intriguing partwork series through the online shop, building to a dramatic final installment and the special offer of an attractive leather-bound commemorative folder?
What do you think?
Limited Edition (not just leather but red leather!) with exhaustive liner notes written by Fatima and in every 100th copy a signed photograph of HP and Gary “enjoying a swim”. Let’s make this happen!
I’m holding out for The Official Afterwordlers ™ Official Plate Collection by Franklin Mint. Failing that then Official Thimble Collection by Saucecraft Potteries would be my second choice.
Hmm, start a new wordle threadle just because I posted this at the bottom of the old threadle.

Losing what little touch I had.
I’ve always thought this was a bit of a cliquey place.
Who let ^ him in?
In answer to the question in the original post, I had hoped so…..
Who let ^ him in?
I don’t understand the fuss. If you use a bank of four words covering 20 different letters of the alphabet, you are 99% certain of getting it within six attempts and, if you are lucky, a chance of a lot less.
Where is the fun? Or the skill?
If you have to ask…
I use a different starter word every day. Like any of these diversions, they can be as fun as you want them to be. Also, you know there is a hard setting where you have to use previously found clues? That stops most strategies.
I’ve only gone out the back door once, when I had four of the letters in round 2 and had eight options for the fifth letter.
Don’t know if the 99% figure is correct, but it has to be reasonably straightforward to keep people playing, sharing, boasting etc. I think that is the point. If it was too difficult most would give up
The challenge isn’t getting it in 6 (although I’ve failed on that front twice in around 60 goes), it’s the elation of a jammy 2, the satisfaction of a solid 3 (leave it Moose), or making sure you do no worse than a 4 (which is by far my most common score).
Even if you don’t cheat (where cheat = using a beneficial starter word each day, selecting a completely different but beneficial word for the second line, inserting a word you know is wrong but lets you know where a correct letter is positioned) it’s still pretty hard to fail Wordle. Not the point.
5,10, 15 minutes of pleasurable brain-teasing and then sharing the result of your efforts is.
Exactly, although I think what you’re talking about is tactics rather than cheating.
Exactly @mikethep – this is the tactic I use. My success distribution is an even split across lines 3, 4 & 5. A few times I have gone to line 6 and I have had a couple of total misses.
I’m not sure the tactic makes the puzzle significantly easier. But it’s certainly not cheating.
I’ll stick to Evil Sudoku, then.
Splendid.

In two! I was determined to get a ‘2’ after the first line but I took a long time to get the answer and when I did I wondered why.
A long, slow 2 – how unusual!
It`s like I said Lodey when I got the answer I wondered why it took so long.
We are not talking hours here, it took me around 8-10 minutes. I do it all in my head, no pen and paper and I`m not saying others do.
I was determined to do it in 2 anyhow time is a jetplane it moves too fast.
My experience is that a 2 usually takes but a minute or even less. My average is between 3 and 4 and average time in between five and ten minutes.
Today’s 2 took around 45 seconds but a few weeks back I must have spent twenty five minutes to get a 5.
Sharing your results is boasting enough. Relating the time it takes and how hard you make it for yourself is surely too much information. It’s just a mild little word game akin to the quick crossword.
Hi there, good to have you aboard. Your cabin is just down there on the left. Make yourself at home and then come join us up on deck for some drinkies around seven?
Not boasting Diddley, me a Secondary Modern/Technical College Education amongst all you University types. If that’s how you perceive it fair enough.
In my case it’s just a comment on how I’ve fared. I did post my sequence breaker as others have done, hardly boasting.
Isn’t saying “It’s just a mild little word game akin to the quick crossword” boasting?

Oh oh, this could go all Will Smith/Chris Rock at any second.
That story is top of radio 4’s news agenda this morning. Most important thing in the world today, apparently.
It was gobsmacking.
He’s the DJ, I’m the Slapper
Also, according to R4’s Hollywood correspondent, Ariana DeBose was “literally pole-vaulting down the red carpet, absolutely over Moon”.
I’ve searched all over the internet but I can only find a woman in a red outfit. No vaulting poles or natural satellites in any of the pictures.
You’d have thought “openly gay woman of colour pole-vaults over the Moon without space suit” would be properly newsworthy. Yet, 53 years later, we still go on about WHITE STRAIGHT MEN landing on the Moon using a rocket ship.
“Absolutely over Moon” refers to her heart-breaking long term relationship with Keith Moon. “No more drummers for me.” she said after his death. “No more men, either.”
Gah! Where’s Edith when I need her for the?
This took me about 2 minutes. Lucky guess on 3, as like lots of others, at least 5 words could have fitted in that line.

I was wondering how The Baron could post his solution before midnight?? Mods need to fix the clock to Summertime.
You had me going there Stevie! I often do mine just after midnight to take a break from the book I’m reading. Although I’ve been asleep before midnight a few times lately, the affects of Covid taking over.
Pleased with this

The Mods have asked me to tell you that Hubert Rawlinson is helping the police with their enquiries into Cheatlegate.
I just did it to prove how easy it is to cheat as I’ve not even done 288 yet as can be seen by the time. (UK pre 12:00)

Hubes, you’re giving us cheats a bad name. Anyone can cut and paste cubes. What I do is work out how HP got there from where he starts. So yesterday for example he went through Tripe to get Trope. It’s forensic examination of the available evidence and harder than you’d think

I’ve tried that too but surely you need to know a starter word at least.
I went through Tripe to Trope too. Where’s Bill Tidy when you need him?
From Tripe to Trope and back again.

“Our enquiry will be deep and far-ranging,” said Sue Gray yesterday. “We are working closely with the Metropolitan Police in order to produce a report that will be as comprehensive as it is thorough. It is in nobody’s interests that Cheatlegate be sidelined or forgotten. And the person known as Witness C is, believe me, firmly in our sights.”
Don’t think I could have improved on this, but it breaks my recent run of 5s.

Y’know, Mike, sometimes I think the greys are more helpful than the yellows. Oh, controversial, perhaps, but then Wordle is for the rebels in society, the non-conformists for whom controversy is no stranger in their lives.
Well yes, my game proves your point. I spent three whole rows eliminating possibilities. Was just getting a bit worried that I’d spend seven.
Another pint?

Hey, Mr. Wrongness – you’ve blagged a couple of hampers here – don’t you think you should pass the baton to somebody else? My vote is for Harkonnen. He’s never come close to winning a hamper, and the honour would mean a lot to him. And the food. He’s a skinny little chap and could do with fattening up.
I`ve been called lots of things but `skinny little chap` is a first. Any how it`s done.
Over to you @andyourbirdcansing.
Just remember to give the new thread a title that HP can find. Something subtle like “The New Wordle Thread” should do it.
This took ages, but a 3 is a 3!
