If you have not done today's Wordle 9/2/22 Read no further you have been warned!!!

*Semi lighthearted.

What do you think am I being unreasonable for thinking the 5 letter word choice for today is controversial. The creator of the game is apparently English and it has a co.uk address.

Stuff like this really marks out the newbies from those of us Wordle long-timers ...

There's a whole other thread titled Can a letter appear twice in Wordle - yes it can.

And now this angst over US spellings. Might try angst tomorrow actually...

I only got it because I saw someone on Facebook complaining about the US spelling and therefore I could guess the last two letters straight away.

Brilliant poem!

Got it in three.

With a biology background it's a word I'm quite familiar with.

From my options on the second attempt it couldn't have been anything else.

Today's gave me more trouble.

JustHereWithMyPopcorn · 10/02/2022 09:21

@DrSbaitso I got lucky today on getting the first two letters in the correct place and the other 3 letters jumbled in my first two words.

DrSbaitso · 10/02/2022 09:26

I got it in 4 but it was a struggle.

silverlace · 10/02/2022 09:27

I didn't see this thread yesterday but just wanted to leave this here. I knew about the American spellings and was lucky!

I was more annoyed by how many British people whined on FB about it before I'd had the chance to do it, which made it far too easy.
