Obviously not too hard for you to solve it, and then spoil the game for all others.

You could post the answers to the Stuff quiz too if you're of that mind.

hmmmmmm could be ok.
My last word was brave, so one more and I probably would have got it.

Not sure how to c&P results

The Wordle site has a copy function for the results which pastes okay on Twitter but not TMMB. I've raised the matter with Admin. Watch this space.

I'd play it. I like those sorts of puzzles.

It's basically like those games where you have to change one letter to change the word, and you get maybe 6 tries. But, this one is different, because you don't know what the first word is.

RE: For the Wordle players - king1 - 21-12-2021

Copy/paste the coded result squares was what I meant not posting the actual answer Einstein.

This twitter thread portrays the way the player's successes can be displayed. Maybe having seen that already made the concept seem obvious.

Besides my comment pales into insignificance compared to magoo's usual level of literacy. I'm sure he'll survive it.

Apologies. I hadn't initially realised that TMMB's functionality prevented the colour coded results from displaying which should have made the concept more obvious.

pesky instructions


RE: For the Wordle players - Magenta69 - 21-12-2021

Good puzzle. I got it on 3rd line, but only had the A and E on 2nd line so it was really by chance that I got it then.


RE: For the Wordle players - Magoo - 21-12-2021

heres a handy hint.
its much easier doing it the second time.


RE: For the Wordle players - harm_less - 22-12-2021

Woohoo! Got it in three (and figured out how to display the results):
