Personally happy for it to keep dropping down. If it does at some point I'll top up again.

I changed it from Dennis to Jota at the last minute so I guess that's one positive for me recently. Watch Jota now get a red and an own goal.

Wordle 217 6/6 Had 4 yellows before I had a single green. Difficult one today but shouldn't have been.

Says it all really. Nothing else really ever needs to be said about them.

Yeah it takes all the fun out of it when people know that you're watching them.

Absolutely loved Meatloaf growing up and am glad I got to see him live a while back. Don't really care about most celebrity deaths but this one (like Terry Pratchett) has hit home. I want a hug.

Same. I'm struggling with the normal version let alone the draft.

Bit extreme.

After reading the reactions to Wordle in Off Topic I'm strangely glad I started this thread.

Getting closer and closer to just giving up on this (not just this season but for good). Every week I get slammed by random cancellations or injuries from nowhere and lose half my squad. Can't plan at all and feel like it's pure chance at the moment. It's not the regular red arrows as that happens and my rank is still good (65k), it's that it's become tedious.

Started reading this having watched Dopesick, was incredibly confused and wondering how I'd missed her in it. Dopesick is a really good show and Keaton is great in it. The wife is watching Big Sky and is enjoying it.

A word puzzle game that popped up lately. There's links to it in the first few posts. The rules are fairly straightforward and mentioned on the site and in the thread, if you want to play or have questions let us know.

Pretty much the same for me. This season is feeling more and more like a complete roll of the dice and pure chance in guessing which fixtures actually happen.

And I did not speak out, because I had Bupa.

Archer is brilliant. It gets a little less so and somewhat repetitive around season 8 but definitely still worth watching.

The earlier ones are definitely more difficult.

Wordle 212 6/6 That was frustrating.

Why does driving forward into the bay suggest it is a female driver?

Gavin Williamson getting a knighthood from BoJo so that he keeps quiet on the secrets he knows. Sacked over the Huawei leak whilst Defence Secretary. Was an awful Education Secretary and was in charge for the 2020 A-Level results fiasco. Hosted a work Christmas party in 2020 whilst the country was in lockdown. Disgraceful if he gets knighted.

All player interactions are ridiculous. I often save the game before ones I'm forced to do purely as I know they're unpredictable and can easily blow up into ridiculous situations. I had a player kicking off and wanting to be sold as his contract was running down with 6 months left and he was worried he wouldn't get a renewal. He wouldn't sign a new deal because of this and eventually signed for another team. Sadly there was no option to tell him he was eligible for citizenship in 5 months and wouldn't need a work permit anymore. Player interactions generally only add negatives to the game in my opinion and I'd be happy never having to do them. Same as press conferences, which are also boring and repetitive. I'd give them to my AM but I've done that before and he upset people more then I did.

Arsenal sending 2 first team players out on loan last week and then postponing games as they don't have a squad. At the same time Spurs had their request refused under similar circumstances.

Brilliant start to my FH week with Mount and Ronnie. Cancelo stuck on my bench too.

Couple of potential doubles in there. Seems innocuous to me.
