Phew…barely made it on this one. I was thinking Click would be very Quordle-like (for the double-letter word), but I resisted, _and_ resisted again.

And Lorry? I mean, I _guess_ it’s a legit answer word…_if_ you’re British. 🇬🇧 I actually think it’s fine to go with UK spellings and words, considering anyone can play this game from anywhere, but I resisted this one too and was sure it was going to be World.

You still fared better than most on the board, including me. 😉 But I hear ya on talking oneself out of playing this or that word. Been there done that many times. Always lots of coulda shoulda woulda’s with this game. 😆

Regarding Sequence, you at least nailed Click though, which was great.

Alas, my chances of getting another 6 was foiled by the blasted trap word. Not that a 7 is bad, mind you…could have been a lot worse. Diver eliminated 6 of the 8 choices, and I was left with just Miner and Riper, that I could see, and I _really_ hoped it wouldn’t be Riper again…glad it wasn’t.

🕐🕚  
**Score: 64**

Do you guys play Octordle at all? You get 13 guesses to solve, and I took all of them - lol. I had no idea what the clocks were about, but it explains it in the “help” section…they represent 11, 12, and 13 since there are no emojis (blue numbers) for those numbers. So one challenge is to not get any clocks. 😉 The final score is all of your guesses added up. I didn’t bother putting my words in here…I just wanted to share for today.

As a side note: The game’s creator sold to Webster’s recently. I played it a long time ago and thought things looked different in there today…there weren’t any clocks either. While it’s the same game, I liked how it was better before, but it’s not a big deal. Also, on my PC the top two word boards kept disappearing…I had to click around and they’d finally show back up. Guess they have a few bugs to work out still. I don’t plan on playing daily, but I’ll pop on in there now and again.

Yeah, that would work too. 😁 You snuck in while I was editing my post…there’s a bit of a glitch with the boards disappearing, but not sure if that’d happen on your phone, that is if you play the game.

I got confused by the colors. The background colors of hits is the same as the background color of misses, and then the letters you haven’t checked yet are a darker color. That’s counterintuitive; you would think that “letters I can use” would all have the same background color, with the eliminated letters being darker. All that meant that immediately after missing with lowly, I followed that up with wooly thinking that W was still available to try. (Setting a personal record for most uses of “that” in a single sentence!)

Had I not made that mistake I would have gotten a 13, so it’s not like I was doing well to begin with.

I didn’t notice any boards disappearing, and yes I do play on my phone.

I played octordle a few times awhile back. I didn’t notice any words disappearing either, you might be able to fix that with your zoom? The color scheme is rather confusing. After playing I checked the settings and it has a dark, light and retro -that it says is similar to the original theme.
