Wordle 1,135 2024.07.28

I kicked myself in the pants at that moment, because I goofed up. But you know, it wasn't too serious. And I figured by the time I got to what was seemingly my last go round if I didn't get it - no harm, no foul. But I do have to ask does it show you the word? Or are you left guessing? Also I think it was five letters long right? That's such a weird limitation. My grandmother growing up would do crosswords. Those I can kind of get, as long as they're not cultural references. But there seems to be some kind of disconnect when pigeon-holed into this length. Because I kept thinking of words, then realizing they're too long or too short. At one point I thought it was Seoul, but the app told me it wasn't a word. So I realized we're talking things like mat, pat, rat - that kinda stuff. Basic words. I guess Boggle? But I haven't played it. I just know of it because of Peggy Hill =P!

I think hard mode might actually be easier - if it forces the correct letters in place. Because I know myself, and I will poke a correct letter in the wrong place out of excitement for thinking I cracked it. I didn't know this place existed - but I saw your name is Jo (hey!) and you had a Bucees avatar which cracked me up. Either way, looks like there's a lot of cool puzzles to do and I hope I can get through a few when the spirit hits.

Thanks for the tips, you seem like helpful folk =)!
