Well damn, my wife was just getting over her addiction to Wordle and her daily communication with her sister and our daughter about it. Now I guess she will relapse into this. I personally don't have a clue what Wordle is other than an addiction my wife appears to suffer from

I'll admit I'm marginally retarded, but that is hard AF.

28 guesses. 5 min 49 sec. I have no idea if that's decent, great, or 17in' terrible.

I found connections to be too subjective for me

I think Hard AF is racist.

Not bad at all, for I'm assuming a non-English speaker?***

14 guesses, 2 min 18 sec. Fun game

of those 28 guesses, over half of them were with the correct first two letters. I had stopped thinking and was just angry.

Too easy*****

I did get in 20 tries. Not ashamed. Pretty fun, but I’ll never remeber to do it daily.

This is me. I hurry through wordle so I can play connections. /nerdalert

 

[Darryl Steight]

Come @ me bro**

I like it. Fun game. Similar to the number game I play with my kids while we wait for our food at a restaurant.

 

[MSUDOG24]

17 over "a long time". Spent most of it trying to remember the alphabet.

I never thought I'd think or type the word 'ubiquitous' but it happened.

Holy hell, now I can stretch my yearly NYT puzzles dollar. I got all this just for the crosswords, which I haven’t done as much lately. These look like fun!

 

[kired]

That’s just infuriating

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

Nothing can beat Wordle to my wife and kids. They are addicted to it like it's crack.

 

[Darryl Steight]

Today's was harder. You have to think a lot more in this game than the others. I like it.

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

I play the grid games mostly. Immaculate Grid and GeoGrid

This was really interesting- might have to do it moving forward.
Its tough as 17 to sit there and say the alphabet over and over to figure out the next letter.

 

[mstateglfr]

My wife just tried it. Typed in 3 words then turned to me and said 'this is 17ing dumb, there are an infinite number of words and this is a stupid game! I am done!'
