Wordle - Quordle Thread

[littlevoice359]

Grand total of 82 for me today, mostly down to blind luck.

 

[Burylancs]

I always start with the same word, RAISE. If that doesn't give me anything, i try MOUND. Don't ask why, i've no idea!

The sequence is glent, brick, jumpy, vozhd, waqfs.

That gives 25 letters and the wordle.

I also start with Adieu, and one day it might be the word
Then I use SPORT or adjust that depending on which vowels I got from ADIEU.
Yesterday was one of those irritating ones where I had the last four letters by the second guess, and then It was just guess work for the starting letter, and I failed.

Once finished I go on to do Quordle, and then Nerdle (numbers instead of letters and in my mind a lot easier. Disappointed if I don’t get it in 3. And now I shall have to look at Octordle

Good one for me after an iffy start on Wordle. Wordle with a 5, then a 6, 5, 4, 3 for 18 on Quordle, and a 52 on Octordle. Total of 75. (...and welcome back to @littlevoice359)

No, but I just did, and equalled the longest possible. Mustn’t get hooked on any more games, though, I do too many already!

 

[rebrascora]

I started well and then lost my way on Octordle.

Wordle in 3
Quordle 1 7 3 5 = 16 ..... Yes, my starter word came good!
Octordle for 66

Looks like a total of 85 for me putting me right in the middle. Good to see @littlevoice359 back.

Don't have time to do any other puzzles so don't dare look at your Guardian Puzzle @Burylancs for fear of getting hooked too

Yeah, I gave that a go but it never really caught on for me.

 

[Rob Oldfield]

Early start today that went very well. 3 on Wordle, then a 51 on Octordle and a 4, 5, 6, 3 Quordle for a total of 72.

Wondering whether we might see an entry from @Burylancs? For info, the sites we use are... https://www.nytimes.com/games/wordle/index.html

Started off pretty well for me but my luck started to run out towards the end of Octordle and had 3 options between the 2 words left and took all 3 lives to get them. 😡

Wordle in 3
Quordle 7 6 3 4 = 20
Octordle for 61

Gives me a total of 84.

 

[Robin]

I struggled on Quordle today, scraped home, but I thought there were some difficult words.
Wordle in 4
Quordle in 5,8,7,9 = 29
Octordle in 55
Total 88

 

[Rob Oldfield]

Some tricky bits today but managed to find a decent way through. A 3 on Wordle, then a 3, 6, 5, 7 for 21 on Quordle, and an Octordle 55 for a total of 79.

 

[MikeyBikey]

Did yesterday's (Saturday) late evening but eyes too tired to post.

Wordle in 4
Quordle to the wire for 27 (7, 6, 9, 5)
Octordle in 12 for 64

Total Score 95!

 

[Robin]

Moderate again for me, got bogged down and took three attempts to get the final letter of a word correct in Quordle, when I knew I should really leave it and hope it solved itself later.
Wordle in 5
Quordle in 7,9,5,6 = 27
Octordle in 61
Total 93

I think @Rob Oldfield and I tied for the Quordle challenge last week, so do you want to choose this time, Rob, as you’re consistently better than me?

 

[rebrascora]

Started well and then luck got progressively elusive and took 3 all lives when I had a choice of 3 on Quordle but scraped through only to DNF on Octordle

Wordle in 3
Quordle 3 8 6 9 = 26
Octordle = DNF

As it's a bank holiday, let's go with BREAK.

Thought it was familiar! A similar word is PAUSE?

 

[MikeyBikey]

And today:

Wordle in 4
Quordle in 8 for 23 (3, 8, 5, 7)
Octordle in 12 for 63

Total Score 90! After a few days I can give the Spoon of Wood back to @rebrascora ! 🙂_

I’m happy to repeat BREAK, it’s been nearly 6 months. (Thats one reason I don’t like choosing, I can never remember what we’ve had before!)

Happy to go with BREAK. I am saving XYLYL and PZAZZ for the future!

Ah, well spotted. PAUSE it is!
