On the one hand, yes I missed the clue from attempt 1 in 3, otoh, order of operations kinda screwed things up. because I had a +12 in the first row, but since it is at the individual digit levelβ¦
and yes, I keep trying to see if they will use the 0 as a placeholder, they havenβt yet, but also, they donβt fail my attempts to use it that way.
The last few days I have strayed from my regular strategy of starter words and worked in what would be hard mode. My brain did not like it and I have failed at a few, which has broken my streak. Itβs interesting to see how my brain works.
Son told me he got it in three so I worked harder than I would have to figure it out in three. Trying not to let your 11-year-old best you is good motivation!
seeing the answer, the approach I could have used to get there is much more obvious. I got caught in a rut knowing the last digit and trying to figure out how to get there, so threw away attempt 3 to gather more info.
I was all excited about Heardle. The first time I tried it, I was successful immediately due to the song choice being a song I know and love.
Song
Dreams by Fleetwood Mac, a song that would be in my top ten list of favorite songs of my whole life, if I ever made that list.
But then yesterdayβs, I had no clue. Not a single guess, had never heard that song in my life. When I failed it and found out the song, I actually felt proud I had failed.
Song
It was a song by Kanye West! I hate Kanye West! Of course I donβt know his music!!! I donβt even know if I dislike his music, I just have no respect for him as a person so I donβt listen to his music. You all, among other crimes, he was mean and disrespetcful to Taylor. For no reason, she didnβt do anything to him. Not cool.
And today, Iβm back to being successful! (Although I really do owe credit to my daughter for the fact that I knew this one immediately.)
