M: I came here for a good argument.
A: No you didn't; no, you came here for an argument.
M: An argument isn't just contradiction.
A: It can be.
M: No it can't. An argument is a connected series of statements intended to establish a proposition.
A: No it isn't.
M: Yes it is! It's not just contradiction.
A: Look, if I argue with you, I must take up a contrary position.
M: Yes, but that's not just saying 'No it isn't.'
A: Yes it is!
M: No it isn't!
Another 5 guesser for me today.

This one should be be expired.
I seem to be getting the hang of it.

A trick I've been using is to key the unknown letters with X. For example, row 2 above could be SXXXP or SXXXL. Next step might be SLXXP or SPXXL. (Don't hit ENTER.) Combined with the keyboard clues, it's a way to visualize the target word.
not sure how I managed to miss a day (again) - midnight seems to creep up on me!

I see Wordle is all over the UK news today after the US spelling controversy yesterday!
Today was better

To work with UK spelling, it would likely need to be six letters per line.
Got skunked again yesterday. On line six I guessed vapor but it was favor.
Four guesses seems to be my sweet spot: got 1 in 3, 5 in 4, and 1 in 5 guesses. Haven't been stumped yet but at least one puzzle I walked away from and came back later.

The only thing that saved me was that there was only one word I could form with the letters that were left. It took about an hour to think of it.
I think I got lucky today - but it was largely down to lateral thinking.
Got it in 4.

four for me too. One of which was a word I didn't even know existed!

It's an interesting puzzle, a kind of variant of hangman I suppose. While I've had a bit of fun with it the lucky guess part of it, usually at the beginning, detracts for me. I also stumble with American spellings of course because my brain wants to spell things theproperBritish way!

Saw a write-up in The Guardian on another word game: Absurdle.
It's a take-off with the target word re-shuffled according to your guesses (unlimited), i.e. the software is your opponent.
My first go took 8 rows to get a winner.

Click on the yellow word Absurdle to bring up the game.
hmmm - so I tried your new word game, Wordle, for the first time today.
Perhaps today's puzzle was easy, but I was able to get it 4 tries. Or perhaps it is just beginner's luck. We shall see about tomorrow's puzzle.
