Slow progress. Took a long time to think of the solution word, even though it's relatively common. I'd guess a few people got it in one today, it's not a bad starting word either.

Pretty quick today with another good result from a random starting word - NAIVE.

Not paying attention on line three, so lucky to get away with it. Thought I might run out of lines as I knew of at least one other possibility for the solution, but got there in the end. Five minutes.

Maybe we can have an internal BTW Wordle competition.

I'll keep score over the next ten games. Fewest overall number of goes wins.

Sounds good to me.

Oh dear! Pressure! I can feel myself crumble already.

Gutted! A more regularly used start word would have taken me almost straight there. The irony of the solution too. My dogs have turned part of the garden into a quagmire recently.

I was fortunate in that my most frequently-used starting word (TRAIN) had four of the solution letters in the right order. So a possible solution presented itself immediately.

Shall we say that a complete failure is an 8? They aren't common fortunately but they'd need to be counted somehow. A 7 presumes that you'd get it on the next go which is not necessarily true.

Of course it's just a bit of fun and perhaps I'm overthinking it.

So more overthinking then . . .

Perhaps score in reverse order? 6 points for getting it in one (no extra points - as that is just luck really), and 1 point for getting it on the 6th attempt.

Then if you fail completely, you get 0.

So today you score 5, I score 4 and The Picnic Wasp gets 3.
