Some players complained that they couldn't solve the wordle because they had never heard of the word 'elope' before. "Wordle 401 4/6 Elope! I don’t know what that means!" said one player.
Others suggested that it was the format of the word that threw them off. A lot of players were able to solve some of the vowels in the word but struggled with which order the letters should be placed in. "Grr... too many alternatives... #BTWordleClub Wordle 401 X/6," said one player who couldn't work out which order to place the letters in.
