AARoads Wordle

[Hunty2022]

I am creating a wordle thread for this forum!

RULES:
1. You can only guess a word once every 6 hours. (Unless a new round begins during the 6 hours)
2. If you get the word right, you have 24 hours to post a word.
3. If all 6 guesses have been used up by guessers, the first guesser gets to do the word.
4. The chosen word is preferred to have something to do with roads/this forum, but any appropriate word can be used.
5. The Wordle "Hard Mode"  is always in effect.
6. Guesses must be responded to in under 12 hours, if no response has happened after 24 hours, a new round can start.

EMOJIS:
= Letter is in correct spot.
= Letter is in the word, but wrong spot.
or = Letter is not in word.

Let's start!
Available Letters:
All 26!

The first one went well!

This is going to be like the many "Guess the..." challenges, but even more dependent on the author to respond quickly. Like right now, I'd make a guess, but I'd rather wait until we have information about the previous guess before I do (in fact, it's not specified, but I may actually be required to wait until then).

Also, is Hard Mode in effect?
Do the words have to be in the Wordle dictionary?
Can they be proper nouns?

The difficulty can be anything the word poster chooses.
The words do not have to be in the Wordle Dictionary.
Yes, but it's not required to use a proper noun.

[Scott5114]

yellow letters: R (not in positions 1 or 3)
grey letters: A, H, M, N, O, P, S, T

Also, is Hard Mode in effect?

The difficulty can be anything the word poster chooses.

No, I mean the "hard mode" setting that the player chooses in Settings on the original Wordle game ("Any revealed hints must be used in subsequent guesses"). Are you saying the GM can set this on a per-word basis?

No, the original wordle hard mode is required, so no using guesses just to get letters.

Oops. Mixed up yellow and green... Also missed the grey A. Assume no ruling on BRICK because of hard mode.

Wait...why not? R was a letter in the word, just not in positions 1 & 3.

As webny99 noted, this game will work best if the author answers quickly.

On a separate rules-related issue, not that it fits this go-around, but would TOTSO be considered a word, or just an acronym? Radar, for example, is an acronym that has been turned into a word. This forum has turned TOTSO into a word.

TOTSO would be considered a valid word.
