If you play Wordle, you know what this means. I found the random 5 letter word in 5 guesses out of the six allowed.

I was addicted to this game a few months ago and managed to wean myself off it.

I just played it again...

Thanks....

How are you displaying that picture? I don't see any formatting for it.

I think they're ascii characters, no images needed. Wordle produces them for people to copy and post on Twitter.

I play most days but don’t generally hit the share button. But why not

Ali posts her results everyday on FB and I usually post mine in the comments on her post.

Figured, eh why not.

Do you normally start with the same word, or do you mix it up with random words?

I'm a bit of both - I had a trip with a work colleague a while ago, and he said he always starts with AUDIO because of the number of vowels. I've tried that a few times, but it doesn't generally help that much

I have no set word. I aim to use 4 of the 5 vowels in the first two guesses as well as a few of the common consonants.

Sometimes I have to leave it alone for a while and come back to it if I’m not seeing anything.

My first three guesses are:
STEAL
GROIN
CHUMP

Sometimes it changes, depending on what I get out of any of them.

My wife is a wordle nerdle. I am not, ha.

I played a bit a while back, but gave up.

Apparently the best first guess is WEARY.

I don't know anything about ascii. I've posted it on FB a few times, but you can post most anything there. Always a pleasant surprise when something works here.

Very good, Fist!

Got my first 2 in a while. Not as easy as this looks. Had to think about it a while.

Nice. I think I've only ever gotten two twos.

I'm waiting for the word to be STEAL, so I get it in one! : lol:

A few months ago a friend got it in 1. I think the word was CHEEK.

Which is a rather cheeky first guess.

Indeed. I would never make my first guess a word with less than five different letters.

Got there in the end

I have guessed it in two a few times, but this result is more typical for me…

In my own defense, I'm a little bit out of it, having just developed covid. My fourth guess, taking away a letter I knew was correct at the end, is the result of my symptoms.

Don't you dare get me into this again...

This was one of those that could have been a 3 or a 5.
