Re: Wordle
Cheated with a crossword solver after 2 guesses and five minutes staring at the screen. Do people still LOL on the Internet? If so, I am at BoniO's 3rd guess.

Re: Wordle
To make people think you’re not really thick.
The correct question is why admit to cheating.

Re: Wordle
Well, I had stared at line 2 for about 20 minutes before having a stab at it. No cheating involved.

Re: Wordle
Because i get bored if I've been staring at it for more than a few minutes and can't think of any word but if I leave it unsolved it'll bug me just a little bit for the rest of the day.
I admit to cheating as it seems only fair to do so when I've accused others of doing it.

Re: Wordle
But what about if you've been wrongly accusing of cheating? I'm so upset, I doubt I'll sleep tonight!Mick McQuaid wrote: ↑Sun Aug 14, 2022 12:50 pmBecause i get bored if I've been staring at it for more than a few minutes and can't think of any word but if I leave it unsolved it'll bug me just a little bit for the rest of the day.

Re: Wordle
What is a crossword solver?
Is it cheating if you obtain potential words from other sources? I’m not sure it is.
Cheating to me is those who are completing it on one device , finding out the answer, then completing it on another and publishing that score.

You’re right, I’m actually pulling out 5s and 6s all the time.

Re: Wordle

More information than perhaps needed but I usually complete it during the sedentary part of my morning ablutions and find that process allows sufficient time. On the rare occasion I haven't got it by the time I need to use a hand for something other than holding a phone I have on occasion used the information I've got to pick a word from the available list using the crossword solver. I always use STARE to start and then either BLINK or CLOUD if there's not much else to go on. Today that meant I was fairly certain of the starting letter and knew a vowel in the middle but couldn't think of any words that fitted that pattern.
It's cheating in that it solves it quicker but not a method that's going to improve an overall score much.

Re: Wordle
It occurred to me that someone could use other peoples results to cheat if they know what starting word they use.
