    It'll be back to freerice for me! And for a worthy cause. As for the age thing, well, you've already given an age to your email service provider - you need an email for this forum.

    I seem to combine deducing and visualizing– letting my mind wander a bit. If I focus too hard, it takes longer.

    While I haven't gotten this to work on my Android phone yet, this may help some others here.

    https://gizmodo.com/how-to-play-the-...1848463004/amp

    Edit- On Android, the app OfflineBrowser can get it. Once stored, it's perfect offline. Also, I found a copy of it that can be played offline over&over, not just one per day. This offline app offers wordlengths of 4-7 letters.

    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!

    Lately, I seem to bounce between rows 3 and 4.

    I'm glad I downloaded it (and have an independently run app).

    Gave it a go. Solved 3 out of four.



    Haven't worked out a method yet. Do you work on one at a time or bounce between them?

    Tried it, but you can only go so far without a sub. And the differences between UK and US spelling make it all a bit tiresome.

    In the NY Times? I do the short words first and take time between. If you pop in a long word or a pangram, it kicks you out and demands a subscription.

    Well, stop following "o" with "u" so often.

    A standard English Wordle would have to be six letters rather than five.

    To work with UK spelling, I wonder if there could be a six letter row with an optional blank at the end?

    Did better today.





    Quordle was 3 out of 4 again. I'll crack it yet. . .
