I would stick with just smart. I doubt that he wanted to shell out patent and or trademark money and engage in any litigation. Now it’s NYT property and they have the deep pockets to do so. Cashing out while this is in an upward trajectory makes the most sense… in a year from now it might be Wordle who? The public is fickle.

He got a seven figure check for something that he did as a hobby plaything. It went viral, he got some fame/notoriety and an offer.  I'm sure there is some larger value (evidenced by the NYT offer), but I'd also take that check and run. Sometimes you want to take those chips off the table.

Or was this a creation of the originator? Looks pretty much identical.

The image needs to have a URL (i.e., be posted somewhere on the web); you can't drag-and-drop to a post from your computer.  If you post the image on Flickr, Tumblr, Pinterest, etc. and then copy the image URL you can paste it in a new post.

So, I went to the website Islander posted  https://www.wordleunlimited.com/ for unlimited practice. Here is the result of my first attempt. If someone can come up with the final word I'm interested. https://www.flickr.com/photos/...

Pretty sure it is from the original creator. Someone here loaded the link to it at the very beginning.

I was really casting about. I need to go back to opening with adieu or ouija etc. And this computer isn't set to "hard mode" so I kept forgetting to use all of my found letters... that would have actually forced me to figure it out sooner, I think.
