Oh well. If they start charging for it I'm out.

I never start a new day's puzzle with a word previously used, at least not yet.

I try to start with something with lots of common letters and then go from there. Today's was fun as I got the last four letters on the first try. Then is was down to a couple choices.

I think my third guess would have made for a better word.

Spoiler

It was "thyme"

Mine looks like a moon over a hill with a lighthouse on the right side.

Let's hope NYT just want to run an ad beside it.

BBC article.

"The NYT wants to use the game to boost its online subscriptions.
The media group said it will "initially remain free" to play"

bought for a price "in the low seven figures".

"The Times remains focused on becoming the essential subscription for every English-speaking person seeking to understand and engage with the world. New York Times Games are a key part of that strategy,"

So yeah, looks like it'll be only for subscribers soon. Fair play to Wardle, that's a nice pay day. I wonder do the NYT know there are at least hundreds of free clones out there?

I realized just too late that my second word was unlikely to be the actual answer.

Spoiler

I don't think the answer is ever a conjugated verb or plural

Couple of BBC articles:

Wordle code could be copied to play for seven years

But anyone tempted might need a degree of coding know-how and there could be legal issues.

What next for Wordle and its fans?

Fans have been left guessing what will come next, as the viral puzzle is sold to the New York Times.

I really hope it doesn't become pay to play. As much as I enjoy the game, I won't subscribe.

Not a matter of cost, but one of principle.

Also my first thought when seeing it wasn't "share" was "shart", but that seemed unlikely.
