... Are you not seeing the graphics either or is it just me? They are there when I quote, but when I post they're gone.

Weird, the graphics are back to normal this morning. Otherwise, for 2 or 3 days the page wouldn't finish loading and the graphics were only partially there, fully there when I quote. Maybe it's like having too many videos on a page, but now with too many Wordle graphics. No clue why this would be a sudden problem, maybe something to do with banni's new Ashli Babbit certificate?

They're half there for me this morning.

They're half there for me this morning.

They were always half there for me before. This morning the page loads immediately and the graphics are fully there. Maybe clear cookies and/or history? My history is set to clear automatically whenever I exit Firefox, as I did last night.

No joy. Half there.

It's even more mysterious now that it only affects one of us. I can't think of anything I did to resolve the issue, but it's still fine for me.

Excellent choice — LATER is exactly what I would’ve picked in this situation. You’ve narrowed it down to only two words: LEAPT or LEANT.

I can't recall if we've had those words, but does Wordlebot have the advantage of knowing all previously used solutions and thus dismissing them?

Wait, never mind. How did you go from having a green and 3 yellows to never having better than 3 greens? I can see doing it once on 3/6, but 3 more times?

Spoiler:

Looks to me like your lost letter was 'T', thus negating each of your wrong guesses. Do you owe Wordlebot an apology? Also, you would not have been able to go beyond 4/6, thus beating me no matter how long it took you. Opps.

Full disclosure, my bad options were:
BEAUT (obscure-ish, but big progress from a lone yellow)
FEAST
MEANT

How can Wordlebot name LATER as the best 2/6? It was a good one, but there must have been dozens of fine alternatives after your lone yellow 1/6.

OMG, I may have won the loser of the year award and we're only eleven days in.

A quadruple Useless and then I double downed on it and I can't blame alcohol or hallucinogens.

Sorry wordlebot.

I've been Wordled several time and have had a few Uselesses, but I think this may have been the first 3 point Useless we've had. Kudos.

BLACK was a solid guess, and a lucky one. There is just one possible solution left, as far as I can tell. You should solve the puzzle on your next turn.

Options. All of my guesses were legit, nothing obscure.
Edit: I see that I did have a 3/6 Useless , but the guess gave me a new letter, so almost a wash.
