Wordle in a Minute - 24th August 2023

This is where Wordle gets all meta and self-referential ... watch what happens!

Wordy is as close to Wordle being the Wordle solution as we will get.

I’m from Georgia (USA), and idk why, but every time I start one of these, I instantly reply to your “hello” with my own British accented “hello” and make myself laugh😂😂

[QuardGame]

worRy couldn't be answer because of your staRt

Mark’s opening word streak currently:

TRUST DOUBT THEIR TIRED BEING ABOUT HATED DREAM THINK TREAT THOSE TRUTH FOOLS WATCH STOOP BUILD TOOLS START

Theme: The 5-letter words from “If—“, a poem by Rudyard Kipling

I think we skipped PITCH, but that’s okay. The current line is “And lose, and start again at your beginnings”, so AGAIN should be next

[cramias]

Somehow got all the letters in one go but still took me three tries DOWRY->ROWDY->WORDY

[kettle]

It's amazing how quickly you can forget the previous day's words! I totally blanked.

[emilywilliams]

That you do these in a minute the vast majority of the time is so amazing. Thanks, Mark.

Most on-the-nose Wordle yet. I got it in 5 as well, after trying DOWRY, which is a much better word imo. 🧂(<-- salty)
This battle of the 3s vs. 5s is epic! 🤩🤩

[juhish]

I went the same route - from worry to wordy!

[DevilishlyDutch]

this was such a fun word! I could have had this in 3, i thought of worry immediately after stare, but went STARE -> CORGI -> WORRY -> WORDY in the end

[bobhenderson]

And the 3s v 5s battle goes on. Neck and neck all the way.

[benjaminoechsli]

A rough start, but Mark's plenty wordy enough to get the job done.

[Stolkmen]

As I start my wordles with Daily, I see this as an absolute win (in 3).

[blcmd]

PITCH-SNARE-RUBGY-WORDY. I’m not sure why Mark skipped pitch. Perhaps the hyphenation (“pitch-and-toss”)? Assuming he doesn’t skip a word again, then we will start with AGAIN next.

[shocked_shocked]

I was planning to guess this word on Wordle no. 1000, since it seems appropriate to mark the occasion.

[L-porx]

Worry followed by wordy feels like it will be a common series of guesses for this one. I know i did it

[thecookiemaker]

I managed to get it in 4, but I had all the letters by 3. I had STALE>CHOMP>DOWRY>WORDY

[MaxYT]

5 guesses for me
False -> Yound -> Howdy -> Woody -> Wordy

[Railbird_]

Bit of an odd word indeed.
MANIC - STORE - ROUGH - DORKY - WORDY

[nrich]

If only you'd spotted the R you'd STARTed with. Then you may have got WORDY and scored 4. 🤔
