It's interesting to me how common this bug with the coloring of repeated letters in guesses is in Wordle clones, as well as how often there are disagreements in comments about what the correct behavior should be. IMO, this is something that ought to be called out in a hypothetical formal specification of Wordle, but I kind of like that it isn't mentioned in the instructions for the game, from a gameplay/learning perspective. It encourages people to reason through what the correct behavior ought to be on their own, and to experiment to see how the implementation marks guesses; the assumption that letters can't be repeated is one that a lot of people don't realize that they're making. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30174386 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30174386 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30086083 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30086083 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29964725 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29964725 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29947881 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29947881 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29828652 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29828652 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29699516 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29699516 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30103848 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30103848
