So "Wordle" has an "editor" now? (twist)
Poast new message in this thread
Date: December 8th, 2022 9:09 AM Author: Submissive Dashing Principal's Office The twist is, who could be an "editor" for literally a computer algorithm that makes a list of 5-letter words from the English language? A woman. Tracy Bennett. Great job, everyone. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/11/07/crosswords/wordle-editor.html |
Date: December 8th, 2022 9:13 AM Author: Garnet Personal Credit Line "Wordle’s gameplay will stay the same, and answers will be drawn from the same basic dictionary of answer words, with some editorial adjustments to ensure that the game stays focused on vocabulary that’s fun, accessible, lively and varied."
So basically she's just making sure that none of the words are offensive or triggering? Sounds like one of those jobs Elon Musk would shitcan on day 1 if he were in charge. |

You take the dictionary of possible words, x ref against a database of words that include curse words and shit, and boom done. i get it: you don’t want the word Plane or Black the day after 9/11 or George f Floyd, but all that shit can be thought over in a few hours… (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5249413&forum_id=2#45603012) |

crosswords edited by Will Shortz should be clever and topical. Wordle's pleasure comes from the ordinariness of the words. |

Date: December 8th, 2022 10:24 PM Author: Mischievous maize prole also, it'll be fucking easy to play if you know any holiday is going to be a themed answer. on easter if you come up with a yellow b in the first row and nothing else, ur instantly gonna guess BUNNY. defeats the whole gameplay. a holiday themed xword doesnt make it so easy its not worth doing (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5249413&forum_id=2#45606711) |
