Stupid Human Tricks now the Wordle Thread

[bannination]

It's making the grey boxes too big, hence the misalignment.

Still 158-170.

This is what it's looking like for me.

Can reproduce, but only in Chrome type browsers, so like Chrome itself and Edge, IE also looks funky. Firefox looks fine.

It appears to be more of a rendering bug in the browsers than anything to do with the forum itself.

Weird. I'm using Chrome, came out of nowhere after months of being just fine. Vrede was having problems also (Safari?) but they resolved themselves.

Also strange that it's just wordle.

Thx for looking.

I use Firefox. We both suddenly started having issues within a few days of your 1/6 certificate fix and discuss this at the top on page 58. I was seeing partial Wordle graphics. Mine resolved spontaneously on 1/11, perhaps as a result of clearing history. Now, the grey boxes are enlarged x 2-3 days, causing a misalignment in appearance after I click "Submit". Not a big deal, but it is new. They graphic appears fine in the composition box.

My 2/6

Excellent choice — TRUCE is exactly what I would’ve picked in this situation. And you’ve narrowed it down to one possible solution. You should solve the puzzle on your next turn.

I'd eliminated all the vowels and convinced myself there was a Y in there, couldn't make it happen. I was ten minutes in and on the verge of an intentional Useless just to make something happen and said screw it I'll try in the morning.

I some times think Wordlebot is FOS when it says what word it would’ve picked. Even if you'd eliminated O, A & I in 1/6 there must have been a bunch of decent words with U and/or E you could have guessed for 2/6.

I had the L & U in 1/6 and vowels not counting Y eliminated after 2/6. Still, I think my 3/6 PLUMB was a lucky guess.

As earlier, your misery is worth the lost point.

My 2/6

I chose poorly.

PLUME 62
MY PICKS
This guess wasn’t my favorite. But you lucked out! You’ve narrowed it down to two remaining words.


What was your 2/6?

FLUKE?

FLUKE?

Spoiler:

FLUME, thus ruling out both FLUKE and PLUME. I even put significant thought into the first letter being a vowel , but had a brain cramp in not thinking of a second E for the longest time.

Better to be good than quick.

Better to be lucky than either.

Spoiler:

Both FLUKE and PLUME were more likely, I just didn't think of them. It was a FLUKE that I was quick about coming up with a 2/6 word that meant I was always going to get 3/6 no matter how long it took.

I don't know if I'm on to something or not, but however you guys are building those wordle grids uses a cdn, and a few of the images aren't there anymore.

https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/twemoji@11 ... /1f7e9.svg for example.

I'll keep lookin, more our of curiosity than anything.

EDIT: The more I look, the more I find.... looks like some serious stuff went down along the same timeline with all the stuff that makes those unicode things work.

That looks pre-J6 normal to me, as does my own post when I put it in a code bracket.

No more enlarged grey boxes causing misalignment. Why does that work and what changed after J6?

GoCubsGo, how about for you?

Idk how it's built.

When we complete a game we just click on the green box that reads "Share" and paste here. Try it:

Let me know if that fixed it, it certainly changed the style that I see and no more image not found boxes....

If that was it.. then yeah... it was a major content delivery network just lost off the face of the internet with no warning. Lots of sysadmins crying in pain from what I'm seeing.

Thanks, banni!, though I don't understand this obscure language you speak at us.
