Me and DP both do it, and ours resolved to different answers today ! I would have got his answer in 3, and he would have got mine in 3 ! Have seen reports of the ‘split site’ problem, in addition my answer was unfairly vague I think, anyone else perplexed this morning ? On a serious note, it’s given us plenty to talk about, though my brain is a bit tired 😁

Why would it not accept slave as a valid attempt today?

Mollysocks · 17/02/2022 08:01

@linsey2581

Can someone show me the official app for this. I think I downloaded the wrong app
It’s here: www.nytimes.com/games/wordle/index.html

But there are lots of similar websites (one called Wordle game, and lots of copycat apps too.

Slave is one of the six words removed from the wordle list. Lynch was also removed. Should they have been moved to the valid word list?

What is Quordle?

Mollysocks · 17/02/2022 09:54

@Fudgemonkeys

What is Quordle?
It’s the 7th layer of hell is what it is. You have basically 4 different words to guess but every time you guess a word it’s a guess for all 4 words.
ThankGodImAnAtheist · 17/02/2022 10:12

Hadn’t heard of Quordle, will give it a go, I’m enjoying Dordle occasionally, which is half the hell … two words to try and solve with each guess. I also hadn’t heard of Globle, just tried it, I’m hopeless at geography so had to cheat and keep looking at Google maps but what a great way to teach yourself country locations !

At least Quordle does give you extra guesses - which you need IME!

Postdatedpandemic · 17/02/2022 10:24

@Mollysocks is correct it is the 7th layer of hell.
But I did it, just Grin

Ooh I prefer Quordle.

JassyRadlett · 17/02/2022 11:14

Quordle is INSANE but I’m hooked.

Mollysocks · 17/02/2022 11:17

Wow I’m jealous! I’ve only ever done 3 out of 4 quordles! Weirdly I’m better at Nerdle and I hate maths. 🤣

RonniePickering · 17/02/2022 11:18

Oh man I've had one go at Nerdle, too much for me 😂

blameless · 17/02/2022 13:28

Just done the NYT Wordle - all letters in bar the second by third attempt. Thankfully, hit the jackpot with the fourth, but would have been cheesed off if I'd tried the alternative words that fitted first.

Imworkingonit · 17/02/2022 15:05

I'm a fan of Wordle and Nerdle but Quordle is my favourite. I hadn't heard of Dordle before but need to check it out now Grin Daily Quordle #24

Just found quordle, adding to the list! My DS 11 is amazing at geography so we do Worldle together*
*by together I mean I type his guesses Grin

DePfeffoff · 17/02/2022 16:31

Byrdle is quite fun. They're splendidly rude when you take a long time to guess.

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 17/02/2022 16:33

I like Byrdle too - but KYRIE the other day was oarticularly challenging..

Fudgemonkeys · 17/02/2022 20:22

Rules for Dordle? Can't find help Confused

RonniePickering · 17/02/2022 20:24

Dordle is just 2 wordles at the same time.

Wordle has gone woke. I'm not playing a New York Woke Wordle it can fuck off. Shame because it was good while it lasted.
Linguini · 18/02/2022 09:48

Word for female dog has been removed.

Postdatedpandemic · 18/02/2022 10:00

Interesting @Linguini I can understand offensive words being removed from the solutions list but to remove these words from the valid words list seems a bit like censorship.

I was to play a lot of scrabble, if it was in the dictionary, it was allowed

Mollysocks · 18/02/2022 10:02

@Linguini

Yes I saw that, how ridiculous it is an actual word 🙄
