Well, after a reasonably good start, I ended up in the gutter....
Wordle in 3.
Quordle 7 3 8 5 for a total of 23
I got down to the last 2 words on Octordle and knew them both but only had one life, so I bombed out!

An average day in Wordleland but rather unusual!
Wordle in 3.. What was unusual was I mistyped the second letter of my second go so just put in a word that fitted that turned out to be an anagram of the answer! 🙂
Quordle was nothing special completing in 8 with a score of 22 (3, 5, 8, 6).
And finally Octordle in 12 for a score of 68. What was unusual was after a slow start I go the words in reverse order from 8 thru 1! 🙂
Total score 93!

A better day than yesterday for me, with a grand total of 87. My original total was off by one but only spotted it afterwards.

Pretty dismal 96 total for me this morning, complete with a missed word in Quordle, all because I made a mistake earlier and ran out of lives in the end. Oh well, better luck to the rest of you!

Even worse for me.
Wordle in 4, average.
Quordle in 6,9,4,8, worse.
Octordle, failed with three words still to guess. Unprecedented. Every word I tried, I was either one letter out, or had an anagram of it, and I just ran out of goes.

Better morning for me today with some inspired choices after a bit of head scratching and some sheer luck where I had a choice of 2 letters and for once chose the right one first time...
Wordle in 4
Quordle 5 6 4 8 = 23
Octordle with a score of 60 and 2 lives left.
Total for the day, surprisingly one more than than yesterday at 87 as I felt I did better today.

Utterly horrible grand total of 107 for me this morning. I should have waited until after breakfast I think...

107 is impressively bad 🙄 and beats by highest 105 but then I don't calculate a total if I failed one of the puzzles, so I might have had a comparable or worse fail and just don't know it.
It wasn't a good day for me either...
Wordle in 4
Quordle was a fail on top left and I would have needed another 2 lives to have got it.
Octordle I scraped through on my last life with a score of 70.
Hope Robin and Mikey do better.... Shouldn't be hard!

Oh I managed to do worse,@rebrascora!
Wordle in 4
Failed Quordle on TWO words, first time I’ve ever done that, I think.
Octordle in 72 on my last life.

I wonder why we have all found it so tough this morning? It is unusual for us all to do really badly!
Down to you @MikeyBikey.... You are our last hope of puzzle redemption!

They do seem tough today! Wordle took all six goes and I though I was going to break my steak, and Quordle has just gone to the wire... (scared of failure emoji). I will Like your posts although not really liking it!

Sorry I was unable to save the group as for the first time ever I went to the wire in all three games! So it's:
Wordle in 6,
Quordle in 9 with a score of 25 (7, 9, 6, 3),
and Octordle in 13 with a score of 72
Total score 103 but all completed!
