I got lucky on my 7th word. It was one of two words that was possible and that would give me an 8 if it were wrong, and i picked it because it seemed more likely. But some of the words that wouldn’t guarantee an 8 were certainly on the Quordle list of valid words.
That’s weird. If I understand the timeline…
First) Puzzle 415 & earlier: No annoying animation for anyone
Second) Puzzle 416: Annoying animation added for everyone
Third) twig completes Puzzle 423 and there is no annoying animation
Fourth) Lucy completes Puzzle 423 and the annoying animation is there
I wonder if I hit some weird warp zone where they turned it off. Were the rest of you getting it?
I got it after everyone else mentioned it and still had it this morning
This must be what happened because I just did a practice puzzle and the annoying animation was back. Maybe they turned it off for a few minutes in the wee hours of the morning and I happened to get lucky and hit that window when I did today’s daily puzzle.

I did not get the new animation with 416. I didn’t see it until 417.
Even weirder!

Drat, so close!

Got lucky on a 50-50 at the end.
And… no weird animation again!
This time the link was to quordle . com whereas the times with the obnoxious animation I’ve been redirected to a Merriam-Webster site… who I assume bought the game from the developer.
I wonder if that has to do with why I do or don’t get animation… whether I’m redirected or not.

Got lucky on the ninth word. It could have been VOUCH
That was my fifth word.
