That was fraught, and it was only the yellow in attempt 4 which proved the vital clue.

I've noticed that Wordle seems to rely on your computer's clock and not the time zone. - My hyper modern keeps really crap time, and there was one day I noted I posted at midnight, but my PC showed the time as 5 past, and syncing showing it had leapt a few minutes over a few months. I guess it means if it's 23:45 and you're wanting to do tomorrow's Wordle before sleep, you merely have to manually alter your local time.
“Man, my poor head is battered,” Ed said.

“That explains its unusual shape,” Styanar said, grinning openly now. “Although it does little to illuminate just why your jowls are so flaccid or why you have quite so many chins.”

“I…” Had she just called him fat? “I am just a different species, that’s all.”

“Well nature sure does have a sense of humour then,” Styanar said. “Shall we go inside? It’d not be a good idea for me to be spotted by others.”

I think you might have mis-quoted your second guess, as the output would be different if it were that. See my fourth guess for reference. :)

I'd guess it was 'clear' and not 'clean'. - It's good to know I'm not the only one who has almost zero recall of their guesses without consulting Wordle!
This idiot first wrote the above in visitext. Muppet... :roll:
