Wordling in 2023 (split from "The More or Less of Whatnot Thread 2023")

Yes. There's a new word each day, and it's the same for all players.

You could compete!

Seeing as how today is the start of a new month, this might be an opportunity to track stats (maybe via the golf method) thru 3/31 for anyone who wants to participate.

[Edgy MD]

Great, I shot a seven on the first hole.

[cal sharpie]

I was one over par today.

Sounds fun, how will it work ? I got it in 7 today so I'm 1 over?

EDIT to reflect I got it in 6

In the scenario I threw out there somewhere a page or two ago in this thread, four is par. That makes five a bogey, six a double, and a miss is a triple bogey seven.
An option might be to continue by counting how many incorrect slots one still had following the final guess to make eights (2 slots incorrect) or nines or even tens!!
On the other side, solving in three counts as a one-under/birdie, two is an eagle, while the rare Ace becomes a killer three-under/double-eagle.

These of course aren't official rules, just something I made up on the fly working off a comment by Edgy.
If peeps want to make it more like real golf you could split games into 18-day segments. Or, seeing as how today is the first of the month, month-long chunks might
make it easier to remember when each 'round' starts and ends.

Yeah, I like it, it's like a 31 hole super mega course. Now we just need Edgy to make a fancy scoresheet table thing for us
