Weirdly, that was the first one I got. The easy one (bottom right)? barely got it in 9. I cannot explain that.

It looks like the first quadrant needled most of us. Luckily I was out of most letters by the time I got to my sixth row, so I had that going for me. Still stared at my three solved letters as well as the few viable letters for 15 minutes before I went, ā€œDā€™oh!ā€

so for todayā€™s wordle i went with ā€œcrateā€ for my first guess and it came back that two letters were correct but incorrectly placed so i tried another word to check the placement of the two i had and to try another vowel and, whaddayaknow? that was the word on the second guess. huh!

Iā€™ve seen several articles saying NYT has ruined the game by making it harder but so far Iā€™m not seeing it. The solution is still a five letter english word.

Iā€™ve also seen several articles about ad trackers on the wordle site talking about how dangerous it is and privacy risks etcā€¦ Of course those sites donā€™t think youā€™ll notice their ad trackers.

I havenā€™t noticed it being any harder. I guess there do seem to have been more solutions that use the same letter twice recently, but Iā€™m still relatively new to the game (just over a month).
My biggest and really only beef with the switch is that they lost all my stats and since playing newly, havenā€™t tracked them at all. :woman_shrugging:t2: Maybe because two of us in the household play? No idea.
