What's the Wordle?!

A little meta today in Connections

 

Connections and Strands were both struggles today

 

A little? I read a story about the editor of it. A single person. I half-expect one category to someday be "Things I pass on the way to the office." or "What I had for breakfast."

 

I got strands by complete accident. I started spelling out one word, realized I didn’t have letters in the right place to finish it, but I had spelled out a legit word. So I took a chance thinking it wasn’t going to help me because it didn’t fit what I thought the theme was. Turned out I was right. I struggled with the spangram because I’m not familiar with different types of they offering.

 

Classic too many choices with the same green letter answer today. I got lucky and got it in 4

 

Today's Wordle. And I got really lucky with my first guess.

Took me 6. Serves me right — did it before my first cup of coffee

 

Three straight days of getting it in six. Not great.

 

Got it by default, but I didn’t associate two of the purple answers with the category.

 

Pulled the Wordle out of my butt in four, Connections is starting to piss me off.

 

I nailed what the purple category was just not what was in it. Blue was way easier than the supposedly easy yellow and green thanks in no small part to purple being complete BS.

Got Wordle in 5. They duped me into thinking it was going to be tricky with letters. Instead they went tricky with the word.

 

Whiffed on wordle, dropping me down to 98% solve rate.
