I should have followed it. Car crash today. Stupid errors and hasty guesses.

Quote from: JBR on Yesterday at 09:50:21 PMBut it's only 9.50pm.
From what I read somewhere we need to wait until 1030pm.
so we're waiting.

I watched Friday night/early hours Saturday morning JB as it was supposed to be visible Friday and Saturday, but I didn't see anything.  Last night was the same but the sky as a whole had a different 'tone'  similar to bonfire night 

It was won by another fella in a frock !  I kept waiting for the song to start, but I don't think it did. 

I hope the contest will be phased out eventually as even the audience was "odd
Looking"

I suspect it doesn't take much cloud in towns as the street lights get reflected.

I think the whole show which is seems to be a weirdo / camp fest more than anything else will have them frothing at the mouth .

Eden Golan got the public vote but the other countries jurors voted Israel down .

I am delighted that they beat Ireland though , sorry Irish people how could you send someone -Bambi Thug - who has but mediocre talent and that's being kind - clearly has mental issues to represent Ireland ?

Mind you ours was just as bad .

I hope there were no children watching this show .

Quote from: JBR on Yesterday at 11:25:59 PMWe overcame the threat of Nazi Germany.  We are now facing our complete control by a quite different organisation!  😨

This is my whole point because the UK wasn't facing any threat from Germany.

Edward the V111 was on very good terms with Hitler who was an admirer of the UK's German Royal Family.

Hitler's sole aim was to regain some areas that were stolen from Germany after WW1, in which also the UK should not have got involved, led to the creation of the Soviet Union which is causing us so much trouble today.

I love the summer..  It is good to hear neighbours enjoying themselves.. 
BBQ's are fine.. 
The winter is a long time.. 

FEAR is spreading.. 

Quote from: muddy on Today at 12:28:06 AMPleased to see Israel  got fifth place with massive public support which is really what I wanted to know .

That is good news.. Well done her... 
I bet that has pissed the pro Palestinians off..  

Quote from: klondike on Yesterday at 08:46:42 PMQuordle is four wordles. Any guess you enter is applied to each of the four. There are two forms daily and sequence.  With daily a guess is applied to all four immediately. With sequence they are solved one at a time but with all prior guesses applied to each in turn.

Octordle is essentially the same idea except there are eight wordles. There is another type of puzzle too. At the start you take over from a rather inept player who has made four guesses already and have to solve all eight. You get nine guesses to do that. If you solve it with a guess in hand you score 9. One bad guess you score 8. Both are wins of course. It can be very tricky. Less luck is involved than any of the other games.

To win in these games it is essential that you don't chase down a solution to just one of the puzzles or you'll probably fail to solve them all.

My own technique is to use the most common letters in my guesses first and not repeat letters already used early on. I solve the anagrams and part anagrams revealed in turn. Bit trickier for the sequence versions. I'm boring and always use the same 3 starters with a couple of options for a fourth if and when needed. I think Mac likes to use different words and puts a premium on using the vowels early. I don't because I don't like repeating letters other than when I have to.

The games offer a practice option which is well worth trying first. Plenty of times till you get the hang of hoe to succeed using your own methods.

Very clear guide!  Of them all, Octordle is my favourite, the rescue is a real challenge.  You're right, I do use different words, but always all five vowels in the first two, usually three and two, such as 'ounce' or 'outer' and 'daisy'.
