@freemo Don't forget the videocamera! And don't break a leg! And uh... well if you do we can make a blooper reel outta it!

@freemo Huh, turns out I didn't remember today's word, or misremembered it. So this was my result, pretty cool. Using my usual first word here.

Wordle 229 3/6
⬛🟨🟨⬛🟨
🟩🟩🟩🟩⬛
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

@freemo Igh, agreed.

@Kovaelin LINGO was actually invented in USA, but the Netherlands might have been where it was the most popular. That video just isn't complete without mention of LINGO. :D

@2ck Then you don't finish the honey quickly enough to warrant a squeeze bottle. :)
Or the bottle is too big.

I do love squeeze bottles, it's so handy for with my tea.

@StroomAfwaarts I'm certain it was a typo to begin with. 229 instead of 299. I really wanted it too. :(

TIL there actually is a fulltime job as a mole catcher in my province. :D

@JonathanMBR Ah now I see the next post. Right, power lines.

@JonathanMBR Looks like a stork. How'd it get electrocuted? Power lines?

@freemo So it's almost underwater sort of spelunking you're going to do? Man, you gotta film that tunnel.

@freemo So that circle is a DENT with walls on all sides that goes down deep. Then there is a small HOLE at about 60-70 meters depth that connects it to the ocean? Just making sure I understand.

@freemo The words you have to guess aren't randomized and are there in plain view for anyone who checks the source.

I tried today's word with this to confirm that it's indeed a fixed order and it turns out to be true. I think I still remember tomorrow's word (hard to not see if if it's right next to today's word :P). After that I don't know a thing, so if you wanted me to play fairly again you can wait until the day after tomorrow. :P

@stux Just needs a little earthquake...

@freemo A tunnel? With the archway you mean that broken piece of darkblue circle on the right?

@freemo Congratulations! Alas, I cannot compare anymore lest it be cheating.

I checked its html source out of curiosity and found out everything's in open view and predetermined. I tried out today's supposed word earlier and confirmed it's all in a fixed order.

Amazing someone paid a 7-figure sum for this... as literally anyone could've copied it by now and host it for themselves.

@lydiaconwell Mm, personally if I see 'quarter' in English, I think of the coinage.

Dutch is a tad different. 1/4th would be 'kwart' but the coin would've been 'kwartje'. Not anymore now that we have the euro with its 20 cent...

@freemo Of course you'd say this. :P

@peterbabic Clones already existed for decades. Actually, Wordle itself was a clone. There's LINGO for example, and they've been in 6 and 7 letter variants as well.

@aral

Guh... email alert that a certain product is ->THIS ABSOLUTELY CHEAP PRICE<-. Ooh! Goes to site, registers, then... bah, price is corrected.

So that was the start of my morning. :(

@lydiaconwell Maybe because it's one fourth of a dollar? Though I've never seen it referred to it as that.
