My DD introduced me to Wordle about a month ago. I use the same first word each time and it has helped me more times than not. She says I should change it up, but can never decide which word to start with, so I am sticking with what works best and have been guessing correctly lately after 3 tries and at the most 4.
Tough day for me today.
Wordle in 6
Quordle in 8 - 5 - 7 - 6.
I enjoy changing up my starting word, just for the heck of it. A week or so ago I used the same word on Wordle archives - chest - for about six days in a row. It turned out to be a good starting word (average 3.5) but not as much fun for me, so I continue to change it up on Wordle. Then a few days ago (yesterday?), “chest” was the word of the day on Wordle! I’d have had it in one if I’d continued that strategy! Oh well…
I like that there are many different ways to play this game, and that it’s never the same no matter how you approach it!
I do the same thing except my second word is always the same too. I can get all the vowels w/ my first two words. 4/6 is my sweet spot for correct guesses.

My weirdest Wordle yet!
Wordle 281 3/6
(Can't figure out how to share results. My first guess today - all black, second guess, all black. Got the word on the third guess.)
Thank you so much for your explanation @Lookinagain . I’ve been doing Wordle on my iPad, so I guess that’s why sharing didn’t work.The only way I could share them and show was to do it on my phone. Then I'd hit "share" and choose text, and then do a screen shot of my text. I can't do any sharing from my desktop computer, not matter what browser I use.

How did any of you get today's word in three tries?! That was a bit of a tough one, and now all I can think of is John William Waterhouse's paintings.
Narrowly beat DH in today's Scrabble game. Neither of us made bingo/long words, but I thought it was cute that we definitely had hiking/wildlife watching on our brain (I was pleased to have supplied "mice", "toad", "koi" and "sei"! Lol).
@Garnetgirl I had the same problem when I first tried to share the results here. Now I paste the code from "share" into an email draft, then I take a screenshot of that and upload the picture here. A bit cumbersome but works for me, since I usually do Wordle on my desktop and I don't use Twitter (I think many people recommend doing a Twitter post and taking a screenshot).
