Wordle 1,527 4/6

Daily Quordle 1308 - Busted

Connections - busted.  Used all my guesses on yellow.  5 words fit, but one I picked as core to different combos they used for another color.

Stands - solved with no hints.

Not a good day...

Charles, thanks for the heads up on the new game.

My first time trying it.

Here are my results:
Easy - 0:53
Medium - 0:49 (getting the hang of it)
Hard - 7:30 (learned there were multiple possibilities - have to solve them in the right order)

Wordle 1,529 4/6

Connections - 1 error, seemed obvious to me ...

Strands - needed a hint to get started

Pips - you have great times, jaxlongtimer
- Easy 1:44
- Medium 1:23
- Hard 3:36

Charles, thanks.  I think the puzzles cater to differing approaches... verbal, spatial, visual, intuition, association, etc.  Most of us will do better at some than others although, once in awhile, we can be fortunate to ace any one puzzle. Experience with some puzzles' "personality" also helps over time, especially Connections.  Another, is how much time and effort we put into solving.  I was doing Letter Boxed but decided I didn't want to make that time and effort regularly so backed off of it.  Main thing is for each of us to have fun challenging ourselves  .

Connections - solved with one mistake, got purple on line 3.

Strands - solved with no hints.

Pips:
Easy - 1:15 - Just realized the clock starts ticking when you open the page, not when you first move the dominoes.  Don't start while watching TV  .
Medium: 1:03
Hard: 5:06 (Charles, you excelled today on this one!)

Wordle 1,530 2/6 - three greens followed by a lucky guess.

Daily Quordle 1311 - busted. 3 of 4 on last one and got too clever on guesses.

Connections - solved with no errors, Purple on line 1.  Easiest one in a while, it seems.

Strands - solved with no hints.

Pips:
Easy: 0:28
Medium: 4:01 (got my less than and greater than symbols reversed)
Hard: 6:12 (had to stop to take a phone call. I think closing out the screen may have stopped the clock until I returned. Uggh!)
