Hey thanks! Yeah, so I have considered that, especially the previous week's puzzles. I am wary of a potential key to wordle's success though, which is--after you've played, the best way to keep playing is vicariously through others

On eBay: yup that's the plan. Their affiliate program has quite generous terms, moreso than Amazon.

On the keyboard issue: sounds like it may be a bug. Did you by chance play the practice round first? Looking into it. [Edit: looks like a display issue for the non-mobile version of the game on certain screen sizes, workin on a fix]

I don't understand "vicariously through others" - can you expand? I haven't played wordle.

On the bug, I did play the practice round first, but I still get the same thing now on a new page load. Looks like it's caused by the div#modalIdBox having position:relative for no very obvious reason.

>> "after you've played, the best way to keep playing is vicariously through others"

so, my (non-evidence-backed) hunch is that part of what made Wordle so viral was that the player, after finishing, could not continue playing - but could _continue the experience_ of the game by sharing it with others. In my mind, if the player could play Wordle many more times in a given day, they would burn out before sharing. All of that said, I do like the idea of maybe putting more puzzles behind a Stripe purchase or something.

Thanks on the bug info, that is helpful

Don't know if you're still reading feedback here, but one more thing - the toggle behaviour when typing guesses isn't as useful as you'd think. I find myself typing out the full (guessed) quote while looking at the hint pattern, and it's annoying to have to keep going back and checking whether I've already typed each letter and typing it again will remove it.

Thank you! Yes, I still am :) - I have received that feedback from another player too, so I will be adding an alert when you've 'removed' a letter if you're using a physical keyboard. I run into this issue too. Life is crazy here, so this particular tweak may not show for a few days
