Ok…so I’m sure Justin will win but this design allows losers like me to keep competing.


We start on Tuesday and will play until a competitor reaches 50 points


Point will be assigned:


5 pts (solve puzzle, no misses)


3 pts (solve puzzle, 1 miss)

2 pts (solve puzzle, 2 misses)

1 pt (solve puzzle, 3 misses)

0 pts (failed but got blue and purple)

-1 (fail but got 3 colors)

-2 (fail but got 2 colors)

-3 (fail but got 1 color)

-4 (fail, no colors or forgot to play)


We start Tuesday

I knew when I did great on wordio and then wordle that this would go bad…it just wasn’t clicking. One word on purple got me or I could’ve survived. Should’ve gotten blue, yellow sucked.


I’m getting last and not looking back
