Anybody else been completely addicted to WORDLE?
I have been living with this disease for a long time. What started as a gentle little mental exercise has developed into an absolute obsession.
Your progress is recorded in two numbers; current streak and max streak. Once your current streak reaches double figures it reads 10 10. Once it reaches triple figures it reads 100100 with no gap between the two numbers.
Once you have reached this stage you know you have the game conquered and there is little point in going further.
But I wondered what would happen with quadruple figures. Would the second 1000 revert to zero? Would the 1 of the max streak erase the last 0 of the current streak? I decided to test the outcome before committing to WORDLE retirement.
It’s a very long way to 1000 and stupid slips at 150, 243 and even 632 take you back to zero and complete exasperation.
Well, this morning I reached my 1000 target. And the units’ space of the current streak held both its own 0 and the 1 of the max streak. I expect that the designer of the site never once thought that anybody would be so foolish as to attempt a 1000 streak.
The word vegan never once occurred but also no beefy or dairy but there has been the occasional honey and the one bacon.
