I didn't get today's one I am gutted :bawling:. My wife got it on her last attempt. That makes it even WORSE.

Doesn't seem to be working for me today, no matter what letters I type in for the 1st guess it won't accept them and says "not in word list"?

You're probably trying weird Irish 5 letter words like "feoil" and "niamh".

Honestly I don't know though, I've only ever done it on my phone and it's been fine.

I did it on my phone yesterday and it was fine, I tried it on my PC today and when it didn't work I tried it one my phone and it still didn't work :(

[Niamh.]

Ok got it, 5th attempt today. My problem was I actually didn't realise you needed to put proper words in each time, I thought you could throw in random letters :p I must have just got lucky that each of my guesses were proper words yesterday :laugh:

I just end up having arguments with my phone. "HMPH I'm pretty sure that IS a word. What does it mean? I don't know but it looks like a word to me."

That was also my "words with friends" tactic.

Funny side story; I once got sectarian abuse from some old bloke on Words with Friends because I used the word "bhoys". :umm2:.

Some guy from Fife I think, tried to sell me some 2nd hand auction goods too.

Doesn't sound offensive?

"boy" is used in the Cork dialect a lot actually, you can guarantee if someone from another Irish county is doing the Cork accent, they will add "boy" on to the end of the sentence :laugh:

It's not that the word is offensive, it's a word Celtic fans often use to refer to themselves/the team ("The Bhoys") and he thought that because I used it, I must be a Celtic fan, and thus Catholic :joker:. Which is the part he clearly found offensive. Playing anonymous internet Scrabble with a Catholic :fist:.

Oh OK, so he was the one being a bit of a bigot then not accusing you of being one for using the word?

Yes he was horrified. I've heard worse though - my dad once had a coworker refuse to speak to him for a week because he borrowed her lighter and promised to replace it - and the replacement he got was ... green :omgno:. He did do it on purpose, to be fair.

I had a U in the right place and an R and an E in the wrong place

No, the answer popped up on top after my last guess :hee: :hehe:

[MTVN]

3rd attempt today :smug:

[MTVN]

What's the best first word to use :think: guess the more vowels the better

[Cherie]

No, the answer popped up on top after my last guess :hee: :hehe:

I wonder why that doesn't happen for me :think:

[Cherie]

3rd attempt today :smug:

took me 5 ...just happy to get it 3rd time lucky

[Niamh.]

I wonder why that doesn't happen for me :think:

I don't know, weird :think:

[Toy Soldier]

What's the best first word to use :think: guess the more vowels the better

Yeah you really want to try to get all 5 vowels into the first two guesses (unless something in the first guess is a big clue).

I got it on try 3 today as well, whew. Yesterday was just shameful.

Was an interesting one today - once I had the last three letters, based on what letters were left it wasn't even a guess... it was the only word I could make.

[rusticgal]

Got it on the 4th attempt…

[AnnieK]

Got it on 3rd try today

[Calderyon]

1st miss.

Depressed.

[AnnieK]

Got today's on the third go but was totally a lucky guess and a hunch.

Spoiler alert tip
American spelling

[Niamh.]

Got it on the 5th attempt

[Cherie]

I didnt get it due to the american spelling, I considered it but then dismissed it

[MTVN]

I didnt get it due to the american spelling, I considered it but then dismissed it

Yeah I got it on the last attempt only because it couldn't really be anything else but that did make it a bit unfair especially as it's a .co.uk I wouldn't have expected that

[James]

My first go at this.

Wordle 207 6/6

[Niamh.]

Yeah I got it on the last attempt only because it couldn't really be anything else but that did make it a bit unfair especially as it's a .co.uk I wouldn't have expected that

It's laziness because auto correct always tells me my spellings are wrong if there's an American version. Anyway I decided to go with favor because I couldn't find any other word to fit with what was left and what I had correct :laugh:

[Calderyon]

Mistake rectified.

[James]

I got today's on the fourth guess.

[Niamh.]

Didn't get todays :(

[Toy Soldier]

Line 5 for me today. I got it on the 2nd guess yesterday :joker:

I always do "ADIEU" for line one because it has 4 out of the 5 vowels... yesterday that left me with

A - - E -

And "Abbey" was my first guess :smug:

[Toy Soldier]

I wonder what the odds are of getting one on the first guess? Several thousand to one I suppose. However many 5 letter words there are in English.

[Niamh.]

I seem to be getting worse at this every day [emoji3166]

[rusticgal]

Im loving it...not failed so far..4 attempts seem to be my average although one took 5.

[rusticgal]

Line 5 for me today too….

[Cherie]

3rd attempt today.


I haven't failed yet (that's not big headed, just a fact) I did get down to the last go yesterday. Other than that, piece of pi55

Oops….maybe not :hehe:

[Calderyon]

I tried it now.(playing)

Tbh, it's harder without it.

7/9 now.

[bots]

tried it today and got it in 4

[Cherie]

4 again today did it in hard mode didn’t see a difference

[Toy Soldier]

#5 today

4 again today did it in hard mode didn’t see a difference

I think it just forces you to use letters that have gone green/yellow and green ones in their place - but I can't think why anyone wouldn't already do that? Surely a waste of a guess if it couldn't be the word...


Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

[MTVN]

Benefit of not doing hard mode is just that you can eliminate or confirm more letters and especially the vowels early on. I was always doing 'arise' and then 'pouty' as my first two words so I could get all the vowels in there and normally have a good idea of what it'd be on my third guess until I got called out on the family WhatsApp for playing on 'easy mode' :omgno:

[MTVN]

I got it third guess today but had all but one letter correct on my second guess which would have been a record :fist:

[AnnieK]

5th today....

[Niamh.]

4 today

[Calderyon]

More difficult in easy mode imo.

Hard mode makes thing easier tbh.

[MTVN]

I mean you can still go by the same rules of hard mode in easy mode if you choose so shouldn't make it any easier switching to hard lol

[James]

I got it in 4 today, thought I had it in 3.

Hard mode wouldn't have made a difference today.

[Niamh.]

I mean you can still go by the same rules of hard mode in easy mode if you choose so shouldn't make it any easier switching to hard lol

Yeah I'll switch to hard mode tomorrow, it's how I was playing anyway, makes the most sense

Pro tips I've come up with:

The most common letter in English is E. A is also up there.

Half of the words in English end with the letters E, T, D or S

The most common starting letter is T


My conclusion is that if you start with "TEARS" you cover a tonne of these.

[Toy Soldier]

My other go-to starting words are "ADIEU" and "PIOUS"

5th this time.

8/10.

[Calderyon]

You certainly can, but you shouldn't. If you want it to be correct.

Easy mode: More flexible and lenient, but more chance to make a mistake, because of it. (More choices -> potentially more chance of a mistake to be made)

Hard mode: Stricter and less lenient, but less of chance to make a mistake due to it forcing you to use clues that are revealed. (Less choices -> potentially less of a chance to make a mistake)

[Calderyon]

Both modes are good though.

[AnnieK]

5th again today

[Niamh.]

5 on hard mode

[Cherie]

[Alf]

I always type in the word "Later" first.

A and E are the most popular vowels and R is the most popular constinant. That word contains those letters and is a good place to start.

Just a little tip.

[Cherie]

I put a different word in every day...I like to live on the edge Alf

[Alf]

I put a different word in every day...I like to live on the edge AlfYou can always fall of the edge.

[Niamh.]

3 as well which is amazing since I had nothing in my first guess and only 1 right in the right place in my 2nd [emoji28]

[Niamh.]

I always type in the word "Later" first.

A and E are the most popular vowels and R is the most popular constinant. That word contains those letters and is a good place to start.

Just a little tip.I use argue which has those 3 as well plus an extra vowel, sometimes I use Tears

Just a little tip.T is one of the most used consonants as well so that helps too. Although I'd like an S in the first word too... So with that in mind... "Rates" is another good option.

[Toy Soldier]

Or "stare" I suppose, to mix things up a little, add some excitement.

[Toy Soldier]

Try #4 today, but I only had one green and one yellow on #3 so it was a very good guess :omgno:

You would have to make a pre-emptive screenshot (or a text post), as it resets itself and erases your previous work after 24 hours, when the new word appears.

[MTVN]

Yeah it's not easy, this was mine today as I guess everyone has done it

[Calderyon]

I had a new word.

The above one was yesterday's.

The New York Times has purchased the popular word game Wordle for an undisclosed seven-figure sum.

The free and simple game was created by software engineer Josh Wardle. It was released last October and now boasts millions of players.

Mr Wardle said the game's success had been "a little overwhelming", and that he was "incredibly pleased" to announce the deal with the New York Times.

The newspaper publisher said the game would initially remain free to play.

The newspaper publisher said the game would initially remain free to play.

Most likely it will have ads on it :suspect:.

I hope they don't just turn it into a mobile game that you can play as much as you want - they need to realise that the fun of it is the anticipation of one word a day and the social element of everyone having the same word.

3 today :hee:

Bad news about the game being sold, they're going to ruin our fun, aren't they :(
