The answers to today’s Quordle, game #977, are…
You can’t win ’em all, eh? After a 55-game winning streak I suffered a failure in today’s Quordle. And really, it was all of my own doing. OK, so it’s a potentially difficult game in general – CHASM has an uncommon spelling, ROOST and BASAL both have repeated letters – but I should still have solved it.
The truth is, I was slapdash in my play. I guessed QUEST when GUEST would have made more sense, BALSA rather than BASAL and WORST rather ROOST. All made sense at the time, but a smart player (which clearly I am not) would instead have guarded against some of those mistakes. Playing GORSE, for instance, would have told me that it had to be GUEST, ROOST and BASAL, but it would have ruled out the wrong answers. Unforgivable.
