There seems to be a lot of confusion and different opinions around how repeated letters should be treated; we really need FIDW (Fédération Internationale de Wordle) to make a definitive ruling.
- pqs 5y agoFIWA (Fédération Internationale de Wordle Association)
- tomjakubowski 5y agoAssociation Wordle? What's next, Aussie rules?
- 6LLvveMx2koXfwn 5y agoWhy not Ffederasiwn Rhyngwladol Wordle given the original programmer is Welsh?
- ZetaZero 5y agoBut seriously, shouldn't the original Wordle be treated as the reference implementation?
- jeroenhd 5y agoIt depends on how you look at it. Wordle is just an online implementation of the game "Lingo", after all. You could argue that Lingo is a letter implementation of Mastermind. When building a new word grid game, would you take Wordfeud's rules over Scravble's? I don't think I would.
- ZetaZero 5y agoI see your point. But calling it a "Wordle clone" implies it follows the same rules. If you want to change the rules, call it "inspired by Wordle" or something similar.
