[00:00:00]Hello, let's play vertical. It's like Wordle, but we're guessing vertically for the first five guesses. So, um why don't I start with steel? We'll go from there.

[00:00:13]So, these are all gray, meaning those just letters just aren't in the word at all.

[00:00:18]Um so, let's do a follow-up. I'm going to do krump as my follow-up.

[00:00:24]All right. So, what this means is that there is a U in the word, but it's not in the second position. Don't get confused. It is in the third position of krump, but we were guessing the second position of the word that we're trying to guess horizontally. So, there is a U in the word, but it's not second. So, we might want to include the U in this next word.

[00:00:44]Cuz I think the U is most likely to be third. And if it's not third, it's probably fourth.

[00:00:49]Um we could test an O U word to see if maybe there's an O and a U.

[00:00:54]Um see if I can come up with one.

[00:00:59]Uh cuz it could be it could be something something O U something. So, what would do that?

[00:01:06]Um we don't have R, we don't have L.

[00:01:10]We have an H.

[00:01:12]What would we do with that?

[00:01:14]This just doesn't feel like I have the right letters to be able to do that. Um I could guess bound, and that at least gets me what I want there.

[00:01:23]Ooh, there's a B in the word. Okay, so U is third.

[00:01:27]That's what this green means, cuz we're in the third we were guessing the first slot. B is in the word, it's not third.

[00:01:32]O is in the word, it's not third.

[00:01:34]So, where does the O go?

[00:01:36]Maybe we're in maybe we are an O U word.

[00:01:39]And then ooh, there would be a B somewhere. It's not doubt. There's no D or T.

[00:01:47]What would do this, though?

[00:01:49]Okay, what are the other options? Oh, we could start with B for sure. We could do B O U, right? I got confused.

[00:01:55]We definitely could still be B o u, uh could be bow.

[00:02:01]And we were done. We're done. The answer was bow. Nice.

[00:02:05]So, it's kind of it's kind of a bit of a mind-bending game.

[00:02:08]I don't know if it's easier or harder than Wordle, but it certainly takes a little bit to get used to.

[00:02:13]Anyway, how did you do?
