It's the second time my streak has disappeared. Has anyone else had this? So bloody pissed off.

You mean all your stats have gone? Did you clear cookies?

Summerslimtime · 09/04/2023 10:59

No I haven't. My streak is back to 1! It was 114 yesterday. Prior to this my streak reset itself too.

petitebleu · 09/04/2023 11:25

That was a mean one today. Got it, but only by complete guess.

I've had this previously too, got up to 70 odd and the next day back to 0. I'm hoping to get to
100 tomorrow.

But it’s rude! I didn’t think it would be allowed.

Also, the F can stand for fouled as well.

Blueberrycreampie · 09/04/2023 19:41

So, it originates from the ww2!

PithyUsername · 09/04/2023 19:41

I only got it as a couple of people were complaining on Facebook that it wasn't a proper word! They didn't actually post it, but that put me on high alert to think outside the box.....Just wrong😡

Same if I hadn't had the heads up I'd never have got it

shakeitoffshakeacocktail · 09/04/2023 21:27

Well after googling it I feel very
Snafu, right now

PoseyFlump · 10/04/2023 06:50

Have they gone for the tamest word they can think of after yesterday's shit show?! To be fair, at least I now know a word originating from ww2 that I've never heard before. But I prefer my education a little less frustrating!

TaraMock · 10/04/2023 08:09

Don't you mean after yesterday's snafu @PoseyFlump? 😉

Yes it looks like normal service resumes, lots of 2s today but I was happy with my 3 😊

ThePoshUns · 10/04/2023 08:55

What a difference a day makes!

PoseyFlump · 10/04/2023 09:33

Yes @TaraMock 😂 how do you pronounce it?! Snarrrr foo ?

WhatWouldJeevesDo · 10/04/2023 10:13

I’ve never heard it with a long ‘a’, but I’ve only heard it a couple of times.

SheilaFentiman · 10/04/2023 10:21

No - sna like in snack, then foo.

PuttingDownRoots · 10/04/2023 10:36

I knew there would be controversy over yesterday's word. Its one of the tamer parts of military slang...

SheilaFentiman · 10/04/2023 10:42

I had a shocker of a 5 today, worse than snafu which was a 4 for me!!

WhatWouldJeevesDo · 10/04/2023 10:58

Today’s ending is always a difficult one. I was content with a four. Optimal Wordle does today’s in four.

WhatWouldJeevesDo · 10/04/2023 15:02

I think Wordle is wrong to accept ‘nuder’. Nude is most definitely not a gradable adjective.

PoseyFlump · 10/04/2023 17:40

Hhmm true @WhatWouldJeevesDo you're either nude or you're not! 😂

JaneJeffer · 10/04/2023 17:41

SheilaFentiman · 10/04/2023 17:49

The NUDER you are, the RUDER you are 😀

PoseyFlump · 10/04/2023 18:08

There's always one @SheilaFentiman 😂😂

SheilaFentiman · 10/04/2023 18:49

PROUD to be that one 😀
