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 😁

Thank you for the introduction to Quordle - love it!

Can't get my brain to work to do this 😩

I've decided that I am quite partial to Quordle

Quordle is the best IMO.

Postdatedpandemic · 18/02/2022 11:59

Do fellow Quordle lovers have a love of Scrabble also?

RonniePickering · 18/02/2022 12:09

Yes, most word games tbh.

Jizzle · 18/02/2022 12:59

Quordle bottom left was super difficult for me today, hadn't got the K in play and it messed with me!

I'd never even heard of wordle until today, got it on my fourth go although not knowing what I was actually doing at first. Off to check out these other sites mentioned now. I love letter and number games

diddl · 18/02/2022 16:08

Just tried Quordle for the first time.

Got three so far.

One try left for bottom left.

I've got an A in the right place & an I in the wrong place.

I'm not going to be getting it!

RonniePickering · 18/02/2022 16:16

I struggled with that one diddl, made it by the skin of my teeth.

I got this one last but I did get it eventually. You've only got so many letters left to choose from which helps.

I really love Quordle now, my thanks to the people who recommended/mentioned it, also struggled today with bottom left and completed in 8. It is harder but strangely more rewarding as you have more chance of a hit with each letter you try. Still addicted to Nerdle and working on my opening formula … am determined to come up with one which mines as much useful information as possible 😁

Ugh I lost Wordle again! Today and yesterday 😭 is it actually getting harder or is it just me that thinks it is?

diddl · 19/02/2022 20:51

It's pot luck really as to what your first word throws up isn't it?

JudgeJ · 19/02/2022 21:44

Exactly, I try to use words with at least 2 vowels. On another site it was reported that today's Wordle solution word is unknown to many people!
RonniePickering · 19/02/2022 21:58

I'm shocked people are saying they have never heard of today's word Shock

RainingYetAgain · 19/02/2022 22:29

Yes, me too! It's fairly commonly used I would have thought.

Zonder · 19/02/2022 23:39

Really? It's a common English word, isn't it?
OutlookStalking · 20/02/2022 07:15

I think today's is less commonly used..

Mollysocks · 20/02/2022 07:35

Agree, I didn’t know todays. I thought the words would be generated at random but they’re getting harder and despite E being the most common letter in the alphabet it rarely comes up.
diddl · 20/02/2022 08:33

I think for yesterday's word-it's one I haven't come across/used for a while, but I've heard of it!

Do you have to have anything to do with a farm/pigs to know it?

Is it regional?

I remember Dad using it when cleaning the drive, but I'd now probably
just use wash or rinse.

AppleKatie · 20/02/2022 09:05

I think today and yesterdays are in common usage. But yes maybe regional? At a push?

RonniePickering · 20/02/2022 10:21

I'd have said yesterday's word was more known to people than today's word.

MyOtherProfile · 20/02/2022 10:22

My Welsh family would always use yesterday's word for having a quick wash, or washing a few dishes quickly. Always the idea of a little job rather than a big one. Today's is a pretty well known word isn't it? I definitely use it but not often.

ThankGodImAnAtheist · 20/02/2022 11:08

I’d heard of todays word, I don’t use it myself or often hear it said by other people, but have heard it on the TV etc and have read it, so it was fair enough for me today thankfully as I am really stuck on Nerdle 🥴
