RE: ❓Steemit Quiz 2025 - Weeks 15/16/17
Question 8
🔠 Quördel 4️⃣ (2nd test version exclusive for NO users)
The first Quördel was a complete success for the (few) participants – above all, it was a lot of fun! Many thanks to the "test subjects" – I hope you'll keep playing under the modified rules (my observations suggest they’re necessary...).
Guess away! But please also give feedback, because only a perfect game may leave trial mode... 😉
So... Here you've already seen how the game works in general. Now for the details:
- Please comment directly under this 'Question' (to avoid long comment tails)!
- Yes, follow my corrections (but do not place your next guess underneath…)!
- Wait for my corrections!
- Forget the 3-hour rule, BUT
- You may only guess again after another user (they can be from your own team...) has guessed in between your previous and next attempt! IMPORTANT.
Got it?! Have fun!
Okay, my turn...

That was going to be my guess but my internet crashed 😱
I was torn between spoke and slope, but Chriddi’s brain is hard to predict sometimes - so I waited to see if Moecki would make it or break it. 🤭
The statistics will show: 1 goal scored and 2 assists... :-P
Yes, the stats are clear - you’ve been the MVP.
Good game 😎👌
Really? Or just not fast enough? 😁
Somebody in the-7yo-gorilla's class appears to be quite the ACTOR. He's being filmed for a Hot Wheels commercial next week - how cool is that??
✅ Cool! Becoming an actor in commercials in the age of seven is cool, too!

C T OR@henryclive, @moecki, @the-gorilla my first mistake, I had to edit: There is an O in the first word...
If I could MARRY this game, then I would.
✅ Sounds good - you seem to love and master it... 😁

P.S.: @moecki, was war das denn? Mit "wedding" hattest du das Wort doch garantiert schon im Kopf...
Ja, klar! Ich war der festen Überzeugung, dass ich nur noch das M als ersten Buchstaben "aufdecken" muss, und dann habe ich MARRY gelöst... Ich glaube, da hatte ich die Regeln falsch interpretiert.
Ich muss also immer das Lösungswort nennen!? Beim Einzelwördel ist mir das natürlich klar, aber hier habe ich wohl irgendwie um die Ecke gedacht...
Ja, genau. Nur das genannte Wort ist Grundlage für die nächste Korrektur. Wenn dieses Wort dann gleichzeitig eines der vier Lösungsworte ist, umso besser... 😎
Das macht das Spiel etwas anspruchsvoller als Wördel. Irgendwann (spätestens nach drei Versuchen) musst du dich entscheiden, auf welches der vier Wörter du konkret hinarbeitest. Das wieder lässt dann das "Kontrollzentrum der anderen Wörter katastrophal aussehen (so würde man beim Wördel ja niemals vorgehen (müssen)), wodurch man gut mal durcheinander kommen kann. Reizvoll, finde ich.
Absolut reizvoll!
Irgendwie zeigen aber die ersten Testläufe, dass man bei mehr als vier Wörtern doch schnell durcheinander kommen kann... oder anders ausgedrückt: Man muss sich dann noch mehr konzentrieren :-D
Was natürlich nicht nur für die Mitspieler gilt. ;-)
Jo. Voll peinlich, bei ein und demselben Wort gleich zweimal gepatzt zu haben... 😉
Liegt vermutlich daran, dass die Korrekturen nicht mehr aufeinander aufbauen. Keine Ahnung. Macht aber durchaus Spaß! Wobei es vermutlich bei dieser kleinen Nische innerhalb des Quizzes bleiben wird. In einem eigenen Posting müssten vier bis fünf Spiele parallel laufen - das kann ich garantiert nicht überblicken... 🤷♀️
I love this game. When I first played it, I looked up what the best "strategy" is 🙂
I love it too, but I won't have as many opportunities as today every day.
As we're playing against each other, I'll probably have to rethink my strategy. But in the end, it's supposed to be fun... so I'll just keep going... :-)
There’s probably a clever multi-player strategy but I don’t want to think of it. As you say, it’s fun and that would probably take the fun out of it!
My strategy is to burn 15 letters with the first three attempts. I usually solve the German Quördel this way in seven attempts. Two or three times I've only needed six attempts, more often eight, less often nine and I've only lost three or four times.
🤔 I've never tried it like that. I tend to find that by focussing on one word (the "easiest" one after the first guess), then the next "easiest" word becomes obvious. I've not played this version much so yours might be a better strategy.
I need to look at your question - I've never known anything about art!
That’s fine since I have a new „odd“ one in my mind… 😎
Äh, the man who never sleeps made this question… ♀️
Phew! I don't think I'd have ever known the answer!
I'm DOING it ;-)
✅ Haha, NO team is DOING it...

Aha, sehr schön. Obwohl ich jetzt ein wenig verwirrt bin, da das P doch im ersten Wort vorkommen sollte. Oder war das die Verwechslung mit dem O?
Hast recht! Schon editiert.
Puh, gar nicht so einfach, bei der Quördel-Korrektur den Überblick zu behalten... 🫣
Und auch ein bisschen ärgerlich, denn nun springt unser pelziger Mitspieler doch wieder direkt von der Seite rein... 😏
Earlier, there was a 'P' which isn't the first letter.

U S I CI had already figured out 4 before you replied to @moecki... did I need to wait for your reply before my attempt?
Yes.
But we should discuss this after the game. If there were for example two or three parallel attempts, I could ignore the wrong ones (no correction because then we had a few "forbidden" hints (hint you would not have if you played alone)). The main thing is that the game is flowing and doesn't have too long breaks just because someone has to sleep... 😉
As @henryclive said... no sleep!
Ah, thank you - now Henry has got his label… 😁
Ah, I do hope it's what I think it is...
Yep. Perfect
Sleep is for weak
I'm going CRAZY, it goes on so fast... :-)
Yes, very fast indeed. But you have - in my opinion - the perfect Quördel-strategy: eliminate 15 letters in the first three attempts - then the next four attempts are guaranteed to work! Jo... that's CRAZY - Quördel is CRAZY... ;-)

CR AZYAnd I had to be quick for the next word. I would have liked to have chosen another word with more unknown letters or letters that match another word, but before someone else steals the (hoped-for) point from the NO team... ;-))
Okay, ich verstehe nun das Missverständnis. Zum Glück befinden wir uns ja noch in der Beta-Phase... 😁
Was natürlich nicht bedeutet, dass du nun nicht doppelt verpflichtet bist, einen Punkt fürs NO-Team zu holen... 🤭
We should reduce it to a total of EIGHT guesses 🙂
Oh, I think eight is very ambitious - 9 is common. Are we better?!
