OT - Wordle

[FogBat]

Who’s playing this online game? Are you having fun with it?

[PromoTheRobot]

Me and yes.

[Zamboni]

Not me. I’m still doing words with friends. I enjoy that.

2 per day, one on the app and one at the website.

I like it, only takes about 5 minutes a day.

[PerreaultForever]

The only online game I play is chess. 

My daughter does wordle though. It's a pretty clever invention. Pity it's going to be monetized.

Don't play it.  Apparently there's a #'s based equivalent called Nerdle.  Not planning on playing that either, but if you like Wordle you'll likely like the other one as well.

I'm playing it and my kids and I are trying to out do each other.  They told me there is also one called Lewdle.

But I won't use it as an excuse here.  I Wordle.

Although I will say, it's not as engaging as it was in the beginning.  It's a fad that will pass I think.

Not sure why, but this is the first ting that popped into my head when I saw this thread and read it as ... Wordy

After all these years Tina is still a cutie and hottie.

Chris kinda got fat.

I play against my sister every day.  It's my favorite couple of minutes of the day.

I'm in the control group for no reason other than it has to be making money somewhere, so likely selling your info. 🙂

It wasn't making money.  Now the creator has sold it to NYT for low seven figures, so NYT will redeploy it in a way that may (like the crossword) or may not (like the mobile version of spelling bee) make money.

Ah, good for the dev; that's a get-rich dream when you write some little game.

I play 3 minute games all the time. Addicted? Maybe

I have the lichess app on my phone and often play a 2+1 bullet game while waiting for something or even while watching a hockey game that gets boring. I get your addiction totally.

There's all sorts of wacky Wordle spin-offs, this one is appropriate for this forum. Gordle, where you have to guess NHLers last names (anyone whose ever played). Personally I found it impossilbe to come up with players with 5 letter names and only played once.

Were the answers Hasek, Drury, or Sauve?  (If not, got nothing. 😉 )

The one time I played it was Gerbe.

Yes, play it every day.

5 Letter starwars names? I feel like every name there is either 3/4 letters or 15

[Sabres Fan in NS]

I tried Gordle and came to the realization that I don't have time for this nonsense.

And my brain is not big enough for this nonsense, which is what makes it nonsense.
