Got stuck on Final Hurdle and eventually gave up and made a guess I knew was wrong just to find out the true answer. As usual, it's a common word I should have thought of.

Got off to a disaster of a start today—my first time playing Waffle in more than half a year—but I managed to avoid breaking my streak of never having lost at it.

I think I played the daily version of Quordle, but their new site is weird and I don't see an option to copy results.

That's all the word games I played regularly last year that I can recall offhand. [ETA: Except Letter Garden, but IIRC that doesn't have the same sort of shareable results.]

Wait, so we don't lose our waffle streak when we take time off? It's only when we play and don't solve it?

Yeah, it works differently from Wordle in that respect. (As an intermittent player, I prefer Waffle's way. )

Re: Games, Riddles, Puzzles, and other Distractions
Eldy, you've reminded me of Hurdle. I stopped playing because of a glitch. I turned off my adblocker but it says I am still blocking ads. It may have something to do with protections on my browser.

Re: Games, Riddles, Puzzles, and other Distractions
Heh, I started playing Hurdle 'cause of you and Frelga, and it's one of my favorites, so I was wondering if anyone else still plays. That's weird about the adblock thing. Which adblocker do you use? I have uBlock Origin these days and it's kept me from seeing ads or anti-adblock messages while playing Hurdle, but it might vary. It can be a back and forth thing; uBO has intermittently struggled with blocking ads on YouTube recently, for example.

Re: Games, Riddles, Puzzles, and other Distractions
I use AdBlocker Ultimate. I have it turned off for Hurdle but it still tells me I have an adblocker. Firefox has some of it's own blockers so I'm wondering if it's that. Or maybe from Duck, Duck, Go?
Heh, yeah, maybe Duck, Duck, Go.
