Someone a couple of days ago asked me why I have the game set to Hard Mode. This is why. I totally get why HalfaSeatOn as done this, but once you've understood how Wordle works, I want it to be as challenging as it can be.

PS "a bit rushed" is almost exclusively the reason why I don't have a better average!! Along with "I had four choices and chose the wrong ones every bl00dy time".

I also enjoy the ‘challenge’ and am blaming my average on being cavalier in the early days. I usually expect to get in 4 more often that not and eventually hope to get my average below that but statistically my wanton youth makes it difficult. I’ve never failed yet but have also only had two 2’s - just pretty average really I guess. Still good fun though

Neither here nor there
For some reason I struggled with today's one after a nice run of getting it in three.

Finally worked it out on the fifth attempt but it took me far longer than it should have.

Sydney .
Interview on Radio Sydney with the creator Josh Wardle - hence the name of the game.
Interview was 3 weeks ago but was replayed just this morning as the game has really taken off since then.
200,000 playing 3 weeks ago and now over 3 million.
He originally invented it just to play it with his partner on the couch in the evenings with no intentions of worldwide mass appeal - he's already concerned that he'll run out of unique 5-letter words which are now computer generated - even he doesn't know what's coming.

Interview here, although not sure whether it will play in the UK ; https://www.abc.net.au/radio/sydney/programs/breakfast/wordle/13694158


Done mine today, about 20 minutes to go for the UK release - good luck !
