All sorts of discombobulated. First I replayed the yellow E in the same position. Also, I considered but decided against checking M using the logic that L is more common. Fortunately I somehow still got the 3.

Earlier this week I had three possible words after the 2nd word. I let excel random number generator come up with the order. The correct word was the last one. The same thing happened today.

It’s been pretty negative for a week or more at this point. Wordle, why you so mad?

I worked hard for this four. With S_I_E in place, I came up with 11 words with unused consonants. C, L, M, and P were the most frequent (and I threw the O in there just in case I was missing something), and I managed to narrow it down to one.

My streak is now at 150.

Glad one of us had better luck today!

After the first 2 tries, I could only think of two words that could work, and picked the wrong one to go with first. Good thing proper names are right out, because there were a couple of those that would have fit at that point too.

Thanks. :slight_smile:

It was the best part of the whole day, thanks to External Events Happening at the Judicial Level. :cry:

Lucky first guess gave me first and last letters plus only two options for position of the third. A nice fast day. Well, nice in a relative sense…

Seriously.

We all need something that can take our minds briefly away from awful events like that. There is no honesty, no integrity, in this Supreme Court majority.

Tomorrow’s Wordle, Today
I think this is #371. Wordle has removed the convenient button where you simply copy the results. Frak you Wordle. I still got 3/6.
