    I found today’s a tough one and took a 6 over it. I did make one daft mistake so could have been 5 I’d been more alert

    Took me the full 6. I was between two answers for the end one but thought one would be less risky than the other!

    My first ever fail out on 116- I too had a choice of 2 for the last guess and picked the wrong one . It had to happen sooner or later. I dont think I made any real mistakes just the letters I guessed didn't fall for me both seemed valid words and not really anything to chose between them - Couldnt even see a way to narrow it down after 4 guesses as I only had 2 letters in the right place

    You made your century, I'm still on 80! Are you having a second innings?

    Yes I will keep going - usually do it first thing in the morning but today I only just did it - maybe that was where I went wrong

    I'm the same, got in the habit of doing it when I wake up , starting with the first 5 letter word that pops into my head.

    5 today. I wish we'd do away with this myth of "American English". You're either speaking/writing English or you're not. We need to create a Tarnspeyk version.

    Just double checked... apparently they changed the word and I was stuck with the original which had been changed for most due to a clash with current events in America.

    I reckon they left me with the silly word to try and break my streak.

    Took me a fair amount of head scratching to rearrange the 4 letters I had to work it out, but I got it in 5 too.

    same for me. took some head scratching to come up with a word for my last guess.

    Worgle on the other hand I did in 2 and those that do the audio Hurdle - this was dead easy for me today and got it in less than 1 second
    I will leave Quordle for later

    I haven't done Worgle or Quordle for a while. Might have a crack at Hurdle... never tried it.

    2nd day in a row where there have been two words used as the solution. Personally, I think a big part of the appeal was that everyone was dealing with the same word and there was a global effort of trying not to spoiler it for others.
