It's set by default - like most websites these days - to follow the current theme of the browser, which for me switches from light mode to dark around sunset. What's the matter, you little piece of shit of a trout? Can't work out how to configure your computer to not fuck about with your melanin cycle? Didums. Here's the worlds smallest, brightest, bluest violin strobing into your eyes and sending you to an earlier grave, just for you.

I got today's one in two moves. I thought it would be good to open with a word with as many vowels as possible. As luck would have it, that contained four of the letters, with three in the right place.

Did you kick yourself when you put the R in the same (incorrect) place in line 3? I did something similar last week and I'm still annoyed about it!

This was weird because I'd done enough to eliminate pretty much everything except the correct word, but did have enough confirmed to set me on the right path.

"melanin cycle"???? It's definitely frowned upon to switch from light mode to dark mode there

I have a strategy, unless I am feeling adventurous, of putting QUICK, FOXES and BRAWN as my first three words to knock out as many letters as possible.

After immediately getting the first two letters today I just started guessing other words starting with them, which probably wasn't advisable.  After the fourth guess I was thinking I might not get it.


PS - I think the black boxes come from changing to dark/night mode in the settings.

I couldn't think of anything that fitted them in the right place. At least a wrong guess gives you more information.

No, I did it on purpose! Was very tired and couldn't think of any other words that would have it somewhere else so just changed the other letters and hoped it would help.

There's something really satisfying about this thing compared to crosswords. The past couple I've done I've ended up with two or three coloured letters and the buzz you get when you spend a while thinking and then hit on a word which fire them before realising that it's the only word which does is great.

JaDanketies

Thought I wouldn't get this one but I did. It felt a lot more challenging than they usually have been in the two or three I have historically done. Real head-scratching nail-biter, and then when I got the final three letters it all fell into place with one to spare. Was really hard to think of any words with the available letters and that second-to-last letter in the only place it could be.

Yeah, it's a craze, it'll pass. This time next year we'll all be calling Wordle SFC (if it even takes that long). There are at least a half dozen CaBers biding their time, waiting for some critical mass of people here playing and posting about it, so they can loftily claim that such things are beneath them and we're all easily led fools. The word sheeple will be deployed, only semi-ironically.

Sheeple is the next craze coming.

Every day I will publish a new five letter word and you will all copy it down and sit silently waiting for the following day's word, which you will all copy down faithfully and so on.

This will keep you distracted.

I've gleaned from the thread that people are mad for it on the twitter or whatever, but I'd like to stake my lofty claim to not engaging with social media so the first - and only - place I heard of this shit for cunts is from you shit cunts.

I'd just like to confirm I was never actively watching The Jeremy Vine Show. I guess I switched the TV on while working for some ambience, and only really noticed him when he was failing to bring Wordle to the small screen.
