If there was anything that depressed him more than his own cynicism, it was that quite often it still wasn't as cynical as real life.

Re: Games, Riddles, Puzzles, and other Distractions
Don't have the mental energy to do all my normal puzzles after a full day at the con (got through security and into my first panel room before 9:00 a.m., and just got back to my room for the night a bit before 1:00 a.m. ), but I had to at least do Waffle so that Rose's streak doesn't get too far ahead of mine.

No worries Eldy, I'm not competitive, I just like puzzles, especially word puzzles. I made several careless mistakes (so far) today.
Wow. One of the worst Wordles I've had in a long time.

THats like my usual performance in wordle nowadays, Rose. I feel like I have cotton wool in my brain.

Nah, I didn't think you were competitive, but I admire how good you are (off days notwithstanding!), and it's fun figuring out Waffle strategy concurrently since we started playing on the same day.RoseMorninStar wrote: ↑Sat Jul 30, 2022 4:34 pmNo worries Eldy, I'm not competitive, I just like puzzles, especially word puzzles.

Not gonna mess around with Hurdle on my phone (where I don't have AdBlock), but I took a swing at today's Wordle during a lull in Line Con. Playing when I'm this behind on sleep is ... let's say, a "fun" challenge.

Okay, Union Station on a Sunday is boring enough for me to brave Hurdle without AdBlock...
