Wordle #1418 May 7: 4/6 par

⬜⬜🟨⬜⬜ LEAST / BBYBB
🟨🟨🟨⬜⬜ AMONG / YYYBB
🟩🟨🟩🟩🟨 MOCHA / GYGGY
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 MACHO / Correct

With G = 1, Y = ½, & B = 0, I scored 1½, 1½, 4, and 5.

I spent about four minutes solving this one... but very little time was spent on turn 4 ;-)

My streak is at 33. Only 235 away from a new personal high.

Connections Puzzle #696 May 7: perfect

Today I saw all the Connections.

My streak is at 19.

Thinking tonight it's been a bit one of our regular wordlers has posted. He always started with posit then mulch usually. He would set his browser a day ahead and occasionally let us know if a certain person would do good based on their starting word or if the next days would be tough or interesting. Just to lazy do search through this thread. Doghand,wizard,hot blonde...anyone remember this user? Hope something hasn't happened...maybe he is just on a cruise or something with no Internet access. Thanks for anyone's help

avianrandy,

You are thinking of ams288. According to his profile:

https://wizardofvegas.com/member/ams288/

He last visited WoV on April 30th.

His last post in Wordle was Feb. 20th:

https://wizardofvegas.com/forum/questions-and-answers/casual-corner/36983-wordle/172/#post949485

He subsequently posted twice in other threads, with his last contribution nearly two months ago on Mar. 13th in the I Love Cats thread:

https://wizardofvegas.com/forum/off-topic/off-topic/37531-i-love-cats/18/#post950843

His Dec. 29th post with the "gleeful anticipation" meme hinted that yours truly would do VERY well on the Dec. 30th puzzle:

https://wizardofvegas.com/forum/questions-and-answers/casual-corner/36983-wordle/165/#post945034

I also wonder what became of him.

Ty doghand. At least as of a week ago he is still alive and kicking. His username just escaped me and it was driving me crazy

Wordle #1420 May 9: 3/6 birdie

⬜🟨⬜⬜🟨 LEAST / BYBBY
⬜🟨🟨🟨🟨 MITER / BYYYY
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 TRIPE / Correct

With G = 1, Y = ½, & B = 0, I scored 1, 2, and 5.

I spent more than ten minutes solving this one. I took a chance on MITER, which is not on the list of 2,309 Wordle words, in honor of the pope.

A "no green until the end" day for me.

My streak is at 35. Only 233 away from a new personal high.
