Quordle today (game #1054) – the answers
The answers to today’s Quordle, game #1054, are…
I tried some more clinker fishing today, starting with Quordle’s legendary opening salvo of CANOE, SKIRT and PLUMB. In fishing expeditions this wasn’t the most successful, but I did land five greens and felt pretty confident that today would be the day I didn’t go down to the wire.
I was wrong, but I did make the foolish mistake of repeating a letter I already knew was wrong, thinking that the cunning Quordle had chosen ZEBRA. It’s unwise to think you can outsmart Quordle.
I salvaged some pride in today’s super awkward Daily Sequence, with its very annoying quartet of awkward words.
