Do many of you do hard mode or stick to normal?

Took a long time of thinking even though I had 4 yellows.

Just in the settings. Any revealed hints need to be used in subsequent guesses

@TaraMock the main problem with hard mode is you can’t play elimination words. So if you had _EACH then you couldn’t play TUBER to rule TEACH BEACH and REACH in or out with one word, you have to use the EACH every time.

Normal mode for me.
I enjoy working out elimination words or supplementary starter words.

I take my hat off to hard moders!

You can see how many use hard mode because they will have the asterix on their score like you do.

I like thinking up elimination words too.

SmallBlueDinosaur · 23/10/2023 11:08

Ooh I didn't realise that either. I've only just started doing it on hard as fancied a challenge... but I may be starting to regret it 😂

TaraMock · 23/10/2023 11:08

I never knew about the asterisk * either so thanks @RegainingTheWill2023! 😊

I always wondered.

I got stuck on line 3 this morning, and have only just looked at it again, and saw it immediately.

I'm sure we've had this one before!

Sympathies @wrappedupinablanket.

I couldn’t see it so used an elimination word which was very helpful.

A five again. My fives are likely to overtake my threes now @Hepzibar!
