@sonhouse saidSounds like you have the hang of it. 🙂

I tried one, obviously a simple one but here it is:
Where do you get the graphics?
I play lichess bullet, one minute and I play Word Planet.
In the word game, I often get stuck, come back an hour later and the word just pops up.
But it's the same wordle for everyone on Earth for 24 hours, so please don't reveal the answer while it's still the active puzzle for the day.
As for graphics: If you click the Share button (or maybe it's called Copy to Clipboard?) after you solve the puzzle, then you can paste the grid with the colored squares.
@kevin-eleven saidwe mustn't call them "colored" anymore

@suzianne saidI'm glad that you might have eventually caught on to the idea behind my little joke -- or have you? 😉
Monkeys who self-stimulate pleasure centers in the brain with a button in their cage will forgo food and water and have ended up pushing the button until they die.
I see no reason to think humans would fare any better in that regard.
I tried Quordle but I have not solved one successfully yet.
I've only tried the practice puzzles, but still, I can't even get those yet.
I think my problem is I cannot divide my attention to four puzzles at once and think up words that will test letters in separate puzzles. So I give up. Quordle is too hard for me. It's not fun at this point, just frustrating.

My brain just doesn't work as well as yours in bizarro land.
I'm more into reality.
@suzianne saidI prefer to enter a word, then see which puzzles have the most results from the word or seem to be the most likely for me to solve, and focus on that. Then I enter another guess and continue the process.

@Suzianne
The way I've been doing it is I have a few standard guess words where each one uses totally different letters. So with each word I add five more unused letters, which hopefully increases the chance of some of them being part of the answer.
Since the four tables get the same guess words, I just look at each table individually and see if I'm getting any good clues, then I try to focus on the one with the most correct letters and try to solve it first.
As I add guesses to that one table, they also might help the other ones. Once one is solved, I then shift to the next one with the most clues, and just tackle them one at a time in that way. So I try and keep an eye on all four a little, but focus on whichever one has more clues.
At least that's how it's been working for me. It probably helps if you have a slight case of schizophrenia and too much time on your hands. Probably not helpful, right? 🙂

It was obvious you want to use test words with as many vowels as you can find.
My first word was ROUGH and that let me solve in 6. I know 6 is beginner level but I just started this game.
@sonhouse saidBoth or these words have 4 different vowels, which are good to keep in mind if you want to get vowels identified right away.

adieu, audio
You also need to watch out for words with double or triple use of the same letter.
swill, dodge, aroma, awake, evade, karma, abase, skill, sissy. etc.
The other thing about the starting words is to find a list of the most frequently used to least frequently used letters of the alphabet, then put together a few words that use only the most used letters, and use them for your first test words. I got real lucky today, but usually the first two or three words, you are just hoping to get some good clues of used letters, and then working out correct places to put them and make the right word.
Hope that helps a little. 🙂
