      I'm enjoying starting with a different word pretty much every day. I also like whiffing on the first guess as it takes a lot off of the table.

              Ha. Yeah, that lingo is perfect. Going to use that from now on.

                I'll give credit where credit is due. Last week when the answer was ROBIN, I texted my Wordle result to our former board mate and let him know he is not forgotten. He texted back his result of 4/6 and called it a par. I immediately recognized what a great analog it was/is. So thanks, RF!

                    Moose created a new account. I suggested immediately banning him and several of you pushed back.

                    I would certainly be open to consider a reinstatement of RF if he wants to come back.

I think for longer-term interest and viability they will need to move to a variable number of letters, not just 5 every day.
