Vertical words were PITTA, ENROL, SPIKE, TUBER, STENT

Okay, that’s genuinely strange, because that’s a different set of words but the number and hashtags are the same. What gives? What low rate Wordle knockoff is this?

Just asking, maybe we should have another thread for games that aren’t Wordle?

Or change the thread topic of this one to General Word Games Thread (or somesuch??)

I don’t think we want to clutter the off topic section with a different thread for each game since there appears to be close to a dozen of them now.

I wonder if you will get that one tomorrow? Very weird indeed …

Maybe change it to “Wordle And Friends”?

Actually, since I happen to have two computers, I checked: I did indeed get your puzzle on my second computer. So the puzzle resetting is not concurrent with number going up. Interesting. I think that’s a bug to be filed.

I like it! What say the rest of you puzzle fiends? Any objections to updating the thread title?

We’d keep the Space? Movie? Robot? Part as most of them are still five letter puzzles. (and that’s how I find the thread. LOL! :wink: )

So change it to “The Wordle (& Friends) Thread: SPACE? MOVIE? ROBOT?”

That’s my thinking, yes.

No objections here to a thread name change!

(And yes, I too look for the “SPACE? MOVIE? ROBOT?” first when trying to find this!)

Just sent the Squareword people an email about the oddity we just found.

Also, a tip, you can surround the words for Squareword with `backticks` so that the letters are monospace and the vertical words are easier to read.

I changed the thread title, since most people seem to feel that way. Deferring to LadyShelley and the other Mods if they want a different change.

I was going to wait a bit longer to get other feedback, but that works. :slight_smile:

I had foolishly failed to notice at first that there was a mod in the thread, or I would have left the change to you.
