I broke me Wordle streak, day is ruined (light-hearted)

194 days. 194 DAYS! Reduced to zero. I am gutted. Day is utterly ruined before I even get out of bed. How can I possibly recover from this? 😫

Me too this morning, me too 😭

Oh that is horrible. I lost my streak last year, not by getting it wrong but a glitch that wiped my account. I was at 280 ish days. Was fuming so I understand your pain!

Floofydawg · 09/01/2024 07:34

And I thought I was being dramatic! (It wasn't even an obscure word 😡)

Sometimes it’s simply luck. Yesterday’s took me ages, can’t remember what it was. As soon as I’m done I forget it!

I thought I was going to get it in 3. But one of those with too many slightly different options and got it in 5 eventually.

Yes, but I find the non-obscure words the hardest. When they go, like

SPOILER ALERT

  1. Could be any consonant, all you can do is keep guessing
  2. Common vowel, easily guessed
  3. See 1. above
4-5. Common suffix, easily guessed

I got today's in 2 but that was the luck of my starting word.

My streak keeps getting broken when I forget to play once every 3 months or so. But I found a website that lets you play old wordles as long as you remember the date you didn't play.

"How can I possibly recover from this? 😫"

You get right back on that wordle horse is what you do @Floofydawg !

Sorry for the tough love but you know what you need to do...
Don't let this beat you Floofy, you will rise right out of those annoying vowels and consonants and live to wordle another day 🙌

Joining in the Wordle group hug.

Computer glitch has got me a few times, very annoying!

Floofydawg · 09/01/2024 07:50

Maybe I need to do quordle as well, that might help.

I feel your pain...I got a new phone a month ago and thought it would carry on...no, lost my streak of over 300 days 😭

FuzzyCaoraDhubh · 09/01/2024 08:58

256 was my best streak and I lost it to BULLY. How mean 😄
Commiserations, as we say on the wordle thread, on the loss of your streak 😪

Floofydawg · 09/01/2024 09:09

Thanks for the solidarity fellow workers.

My best streak is only 75 but I lost that not by getting it wrong, but simply just forgetting to play one day and I was gutted. I've not managed to get it back up that high again since as every 40 days or so I seem to get one that I just can't get right.
