wordle - web - review

I'm not huge on web games, they tend to want you to sign up or have tons of ads... Bleh, I just get annoyed even if the game is decent. This game has none of that, just a daily word game that will only annoy you in that it is available once a day. I got turned onto this through a review on Ars:

https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2022/01/wordle-is-the-word-why-ars-is-hooked-on-a-free-accessible-web-game/

So I've only played it once, today (got it on my 5th out of 6 allowed tries) but... I'm hooked. I got todays word on my fifth try but I NEED TO DO BETTER! Heh, it even keeps track of win/loses/streak. It's easier to just go try it then for me to try and describe it, it gives the instructions when you go there and then just go for it.

If you want, put in below how quickly you got todays word
